Before & After Photos

The homeowners in Greenbackville, VA are concerned with their moist, moldy, and damp crawl space. The last thing these homeowners want is to worry about the problems under their home. Luckily, they decided to call DryZone after they saw what a disaster their crawl space looked like. DryZone suggested encapsulating the crawl space and installing a dehumidifier, TripleSafe sump pump, water drainage mat, and interior CleanSpace liner. Now the homeowners are in perfect shape with their home and they do not have to worry about any more issues especially under their home. 

This crawl space in Greenbackville, VA is filled with insulation that is falling apart. There are several reasons why insulation does not stay on the roof of the crawl space. The number one reason is the strong amount of humidity in the crawl space. When the moisture in the air becomes too strong the insulation can not hold all of it and it begins to fall. As you see on the walls of the crawl space, there are white marks on the wall that looks like chalky powder. This white powder is sometimes confused with mold, but it is not alive. Just mineral residue. It is a sign that water is probably coming through the concrete.  

The crawl space of this Greenbackville, VA home was filled with debris. The homeowners had tried to seal off the crawl space with the plastic sheet on the floor, but its poor design made it very inefficient. Water was still entering the area, permitting mold growth and rot. We installed our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. 

Dust and microbial growth were prominent in this Greenbackville, VA crawl space. To protect the homeowners of this home, DryZone encapsulated with 20 mm thick CleanSpace and a powerful dehumidifier. 

The first thing we put in place to preserve this church's crawlspace and foundation is a CleanSpace to prevent moisture from entering. This is done to keep the humidity levels low which is done to prevent mold from growing on the wood and degrading it. We also installed an Everlast door for further sealing from the outside for both moisture and trash.
