Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This Charleston, SC homeowner was interested in encapsulating his crawl space and adding a dehumidifier to keep out the moisture. He called Lowcountry Foundation Repair to receive a free estimate.

We encapsulated his crawl space with our 20-mil thick liner called CleanSpace, which isolates the home from the earth completely and reduces humidity levels. We also installed our SaniDry Sedona, which is a dehumidifier that maintains the relative humidity in the crawl space to prevent moisture and microbial growth. After 5 days of installation, the crawl space was completely encapsulated and the homeowner was thrilled with the results! 

Jacob, K of Charleston, SC had a nasty crawl space! Insulation was falling from the subfloor, his ductwork was a mess and there was mold on his beams and joists. Lowcountry Foundation Repair cleaned up his crawl space, encapsulated it, and fixed the moisture and humidity problem. 

The CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed in the customer's crawl space to prevent moisture from entering and to maintain a dry environment. It works by creating a durable, waterproof barrier that blocks ground moisture and reduces humidity levels, thereby protecting the crawl space from mold, mildew, and structural damage.

We installed an EverLast crawl space door to keep moisture, pests, and outside air out. It helps make the home more energy-efficient and protects the crawl space from damage.

Excessive moisture in a crawl space can weaken the wooden floor joists and subflooring, causing them to sag over time. Our SmartJack support system was installed to address this issue by providing additional support to lift and level the sagging floors. The SmartJack system consists of adjustable steel posts that are placed beneath the beams, providing a stable and secure foundation. This system not only corrects the sagging but also prevents future issues by stabilizing the structure. Benefits of the SmartJack system include improved floor stability, enhanced structural integrity, and increased home value.
