Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Deteriorating vinyl, sticky doors and windows, and creaky floors were all problems within Donna's home. After doing some research, she decided to contact us at Ayers Basement Systems regarding her floor joist. An inspection of her home determined that the floor joists were weak and needed to be reinforced. SmartJacks were suggested and later implemented to provide a lasting solution. SmartJacks utilize a load-bearing base, allowing the floor to be leveled and stabilized!

A vented crawl space in Farmington Hills was causing a persistent, musty smell that spread throughout the home, raising concerns about mold and air quality. Ayers installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier, a SaniDry™ dehumidifier, and an airtight EverLast™ crawl space door to tackle moisture and odors. Now, the space is clean, dry, and odor-free, giving the homeowner a healthier, more comfortable living environment.

Mark was concerned about moisture he found seeping into his basement. He never liked the eye sore and knew it was time to act to prevent further damage to his belongings or his home. He researched his options and called Ayers for help, so we sent a team of experts to evaluate the space and provide a solution. The crew suggested installing CleanSpace, an antimicrobial-lined vapor barrier, to eliminate moisture and reduce mold growth. CleanSpace is applied to the basement walls without interruption to ensure complete encapsulation. Mark loves his clean basement!

Rebecca and her son, Sy, both suffer from severe allergies, with Sy being particularly sensitive to mold. She noticed a musty smell coming from beneath her Farmington Hill, MI home, which made her even more concerned after finding mold around the HVAC registers. With plans to stay in her home for quite a few years, she wanted to tackle the problem now to protect both their health and the home’s future resale value.

After a thorough inspection, our System Design Specialist recommended installing a CleanSpace liner, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and crawl space vent covers. The CleanSpace liner seals off the crawl space from moisture, pests, and outdoor air—the main contributors to mold growth and poor air quality. The SaniDry Sedona helps keep humidity low, reducing the conditions mold needs to thrive.

By the project's end, Rebecca and Sy could immediately breathe easier, knowing their home was now shielded against allergens and mold was a concern of the past making her very happy with the results.

Homeowner Julie became concerned about the entry to her crawl space due to significant water intrusion. This issue resulted in a musty, wet environment and signs of water damage. Ayers provided Julie with an affordable solution by encapsulating the area using our CleanSpace product, which creates a vapor barrier to prevent water from running along the walls. Additionally, we installed our TripleSafe Sump Pump to remove excess water from the home. To further protect the space, we applied spray foam insulation to eliminate any gaps.
