Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Kristine called our team because she was experiencing settlement issues in her home. Our team installed SmartJack to stop her sagging floors. Due to the moisture and soils in your crawl space, floors above crawl spaces are vulnerable. The SmartJack system is a permanent fix to these issues and provides immediate stabilization. It uses steel columns, threaded rods and a solid base to address any issues your crawl space may introduce to your floors.

This Wayland, MI homeowner had been in talks with us regarding his foundation for 4 years. When he finally decided to pull the trigger and fix his sagging floors, he thought it was as good a time as any to do something about the irregular temperatures in his home, as well. He had previously had foam injection treatments, but they hadn’t solved the problem. However, thanks to those injections, the owner knew exactly where the problem was coming from and told the system design specialist that his crawl space was in dire need of an encapsulation. The white plastic in the after photo is part of the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System. Impenetrable by moisture, CleanSpace will keep moist or cold air from entering the crawl space and subsequently rising into the home. It’s the perfect product to help better control crawl space temperatures. 

Water intrusion had become a problem Karen and Steve’s crawl space. So our team installed CleanSpace, a plastic sheet material used as a vapor barrier to restrict all moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space. Not only does this system create an energy-efficient crawl space, but it also gives your crawl space a clean finish. This material will be applied to your floors and walls to create a sleek look and an uninterrupted barrier.

Cold drafts were lingering in Karen and Steve’s home so  they called our team and we insulated their rim joists. Around rim joists small cracks and seams can exist, but after insulating them all of those cracks are sealed off. Now airflow is restricted keeping outside air out and inside air in. They will no longer have to worry about their home being cold during the long winter months in Michigan.

This Coloma, MI homeowner was all packed up and ready to move. She was just waiting on one thing, a crawl space encapsulation. Worried about past moisture issues, she wanted to make sure nothing would hinder the sale or burden the next homeowner. For crawl space encapsulations, our crews use a plastic liner called the CleanSpace System. The CleanSpace system is an inorganic vapor barrier that won’t allow moisture to pass through or mold to grow. As you can see in the after photo, CleanSpace was used as a barrier for both the floor and walls, meaning there are absolutely no entry points for water vapor. Whoever does buy this home, will enjoy a moisture free crawl space.
