Before & After Photos

The homeowners in Westover, MD are concerned with their crawl space because of the amount of mold, moisture, and debris that is in the area. They contacted DryZone to take care of this problem and find the best possible solution. DryZone suggested a crawl space encapsulation, which would take away all of these issues. 

Protecting their forever home was a priority for this Westover, MD homeowner. They did not have any outstanding problems they were aware of and wanted to keep it that way. With a CleanSpace vapor barrier and SaniDry dehumidifier, their home is ready for the upcoming rainy season. 

A lot more often these days homes are being built with a poured concrete floor in the crawlspace. This is commonly called a "rat slab." The idea behind this is to keep the water under the slab and out of the crawlspace. If this worked then we would never have to waterproof a basement either. Water will eventually find its way into any space, the important thing to remember is that DryZone can manage almost any water problem. All hope is not lost, a piping system can be installed in any leaky crawlspace. These photos show how a homeowner tried to divert water by cutting trenches in the concrete floor. These trenches filled with debris and stopped working. DryZone installed our Hydrolink drainage pipe system and it worked great.

You can see here just how high the humidity reading is in this crawl space. A dehumidifer will help with mold growth and moisture in the air. 

You can see in this crawl space the difference DryZone can make! CleanSpace has transformed this space.
