Supporting Floors and Encapsulating a Crawl Space

This Grass Lake home had a musty smell coming from the crawl space and the owner has respiratory issues making her worry that there was mold in her home. When we had our initial inspection, we found that the main beam in the crawl space was rotted and broken. To support the floors, we installed a supplemental beam and SmartJacks. We then installed the CleanSpace Liner to encapsulate the crawl space and keep it clean. Lastly, we used the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to keep the space dry and to filter mold spores and other particles. 

 

 

Using CleanSpace in Howe, IN

Ed asked our team to encapsulate his crawl space so we installed CleanSpace. CleanSpace is 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. 

Encapsulation Bronson, MI Crawl Space

A customer in Bronson Michigan needed to have their crawl space insulated from the outside environment. We came to the rescue and installed CleanSpace Technology. CleanSpace is a 20 mil thick plastic liner that fits to the crawl space to completely seal the home from the earth. Polyester cord reinforcement allows for a lot of durability, to make it last longer than the home will. This liner also contains an antimicrobial additive to prevent mold. Now this house will not have to worry about a gross, moldy crawlspace and home.

Jackson, MI Crawl Space Encapsulation

The before photo shows the unprotected crawl space and where moisture would come through the dirt floor and walls. Around the edges of the crawl space, water had started to puddles up and dampen the dirt floor. The walls had also started to stain from moisture. CleanSpace vapor barrier was the solution to keeping water out and improving the living conditions of this home. The moisture liner blocks out water and won’t allow for mold growth either. Also seen in the after photo are the SilverGlo panels and FrothPak insulation. SilverGlo wall panels and FrothPak are a form of insulation that keeps out air and humidity. All three products create an airtight seal that won’t allow moisture or imperfect temperatures to enter. 

Crawl Space Insulation and Encapsulation in Jackson, MI

This homeowner in Jackson, MI contacted us inquiring about services we could offer her to help her save money on her energy bills each month. After visiting the home, we identified several areas that could be improved, including the crawl space. Often times the floors above a crawl space will be cold if the crawl space isn’t properly insulated. We added TerraBlock insulation to the floors and SilverGlo to the walls to reflect heat back into the space, making it warmer. The last step was to add the CleanSpace liner to block water vapor and lower humidity in the space. By fixing up her crawl space, this homeowner is sure to save on her energy bills.
