Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

An open dirt crawl space can cause a whole host of problems if left untreated. Many homes are supported with wooden beams in the crawl space, but these supports are exposed to so much environmental moisture they could become weak, starting to warp and rot from moisture concentration. An unsealed crawl space can invite mold and mildew in, as well as leave the home above uncomfortable -triggering indoor allergen problems. It can also leave the floors feeling spongy or unlevel to walk on. Using a CleanSpace® Encapsulation System, a thick, moisture-resistant barrier, we've sealed this crawl space off from the potential dangers of an unfinished crawl space.

This home in Vidalia, GA was experiencing moisture issues along with mold growth in the crawl space. Our team at Lowcountry Foundation Repair installed a vapor barrier system to regulate moisture content.

An HVAC tech that serviced the AC in this Vidalia, GA crawl space pointed out to the homeowner that they had a moisture issue in the crawl space. This was indicated by condensation dripping from the ducts and collecting on the ground. Mold was prevalent as well on some of the wood. Our team was able to help protect the value of this home by encapsulating the crawl space with a CleanSpace Encapsulation System.

This Vidalia, GA homeowner became concerned about her home's foundation when she noticed a musty smell in her home. When she looked in her crawl space she noticed that there was a lot of moisture on the wood joists allowing microbial growth to start appearing. She did some research online on how to prevent microbial growth and rot in crawl spaces and came across Lowcountry Foundation Repair. She immediately called and scheduled an appointment with an inspector. 

We sent an inspector to Vidalia to inspect the crawl space. He could immediately tell that the crawl space needed to be sealed off from the outside to prevent further moisture and microbial growth. He suggested having CleanSpace installed, a seven-layer reinforced polyethylene that isolates the home from the earth and reduces humidity levels. He also suggested having the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier installed to maintain the humidity that is causing the moisture on the wood joists.

After just two days of installation, this homeowner's crawl space was sealed with CleanSpace. The homeowner no longer noticed a musty smell in her home, she was very happy!
