Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Water was entering Vivian’s basement through her walls. Tired of worrying about her basement flooding, she called our team to discuss waterproofing options. We installed the CleanSpace Basement Finishing Wall System to prevent any more water intrusion. Using a poly sheet material to completely cover basement foundation walls, this system acts as a vapor and moisture barrier. The material is waterproof, stain resistant and can be applied over many different types of surfaces. This system was perfect for Vivian and put a stop to all water intrusion into her basement immediately.

Andrew and Tina's crawl space was accumulating moisture and causing cold air to seep into the upstairs. After contacting us at Ayers Basement Systems, an inspection was set up and conducted. The team determined that Foamax would be perfect for the job. Foamax is an advanced foam insulation with a white foil finish on the front and a vapor barrier on the back. After installing Foamax into their home, Andrew and Tina's crawl space stopped moisture and cold air from entering their home!

A customer was worried about the drafts entering his home from his crawl space so our team insulated his rim joists. Small cracks and seams can exist around rim joists, but after insulating them all of those cracks are sealed off. Now airflow is restricted keeping outside air out and inside air in. Therefore, this customer will not need to worry about drafts entering the rest of his home.

The crawlspace in the before photo had been dealing with quite a few moisture issues. Water would leak in through the concrete walls or through the dirt floor. Both are very porous and make it easy for moisture to cause foundation problems. The solution in the after photo is our CleanSpace system. CleanSpace is an impenetrable vapor barrier that won’t allow leaking water to pass through. CleanSpace is durable and can be used to cover both floor and wall, as seen in the after photo. The liner will prevent moisture from ever entering again.

When the dirt and debris began to take over a customer's crawl space in Battle Creek, Mi, they knew it was time to call Ayers.

The first step of the project was to remove the dirt and build-up that had made itself at home. With the crawl space cleared out, CleanSpace was then installed, as shown in the after picture. CleanSpace is a white, durable, vapor barrier that works to keep out any moisture or mold. With CleanSpace in place, spray foam was used to seal off any small gaps in the corners or seams of the walls that traditional fiberglass insulation could not cover.
