Guerry B. of Milledgeville, GA had water gathering in the corners of his basement. An old vapor barrier had allowed moisture to seep into the basement over time which created standing puddles. Guerry didn’t know how to fix his issue so he asked some of his neighbors about their basements. They recommended he call the experts at Lowcountry Foundation Repair for a free estimate.
An inspector from Lowcountry Foundation Repair visited the home and evaluated the basement and surrounding area. A custom solution was put in place to divert the water out of the basement by utilizing a SmartSump, a cast iron submersible pump that pumps 2,240 gallons per hour. A SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was also installed to reduce the humidity in Guerry’s basement. The water was cleared up and the basement protected from further moisture issues.
In Milledgeville, GA, a homeowner faced issues from excess moisture in the crawl space, often leading to mold, musty odors, and wood rot. The before photo shows a damp, troublesome area that many may recognize. To address this, we installed our durable CleanSpace encapsulation system, along with Drainage Matting, as shown in the after photo. The efficient SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was also placed, ensuring a controlled, dry space. The upgrade not only guards against future moisture problems but also contributes to a healthier home environment overall.
This Jeffersonville, GA homeowner was interested in encapsulating his entire crawl space. He noticed that the humidity level in the crawl space was skyrocketing, and it was causing his floors to sag. He needed a solution to the problems he was experiencing so he called Lowcountry Foundation Repair. He spoke to a customer service representative and scheduled a free appointment with an inspector.
Lowcountry Foundation Repair sent an inspector to Jeffersonville to inspect the crawl space. He took notes and pictures of all of the problems he noticed and reported them to the homeowner. He suggested that he have the CleanSpace Encapsulation System installed. CleanSpace is a seven-layer reinforced polyethylene that isolates the home from the earth and reduces humidity levels. To go along with the vapor barrier, he also suggested having a SaniDry Sedona installed to resolve the humidity issue. The SaniDry Sedona is a dehumidifier that maintains the relative humidity in the crawl space to prevent moisture and microbial growth.
