Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Jackson, MI, reached out to us with concerns about their crawl space. Upon inspection, we found it was a haven for bugs, with moldy, deteriorating insulation hanging from the floorboards. The damp walls threatened the longevity of the home and could eventually cause mold to spread to other areas. To address these issues, we installed a CleanSpace system with drainage mats beneath it to direct water toward a sump pump, which safely moves it away from the home. The crawl space is now clean, free of cobwebs, and much more accessible. It’s brighter, offers additional storage space, and ensures the home stays protected from future moisture problems.

Crawl spaces can be a horrible sight and have a horrible effect on your home. If crawl spaces are open to the earth, moisture is guaranteed to enter into your home from the floor up; the same thing happens with cold air. To stop this from happening in their home, a family in Jackson, MI gave us a call. We were able to transform their dirty, damp crawl space into a crisp, clean area by using our patented CleanSpace encapsulation system. CleanSpace sealed off their crawl space completely from the earth, preventing any moisture or cold air from entering. Along with that, the antimicrobial property built into the material of CleanSpace counteracts mold growth. Say hello to a happier crawl space with CleanSpace!

The homeowners in Jackson, MI had a crawl space that was already waterproofed, but water was still getting into the area somehow. There was not a ton of water, but it was enough to cause concern. 

In order to stop this water our professional team installed the SuperSump sump pump. The SuperSump is a full featured system containing the best componently available. It includes the SuperLiner, which is an airtight lid that looks more attractive, keeps pests out and eliminates safety hazard of an open sump pump. It has a floor drain in case an unforeseen accident puts water on your basement floor. It includes a WaterWatch Alarm, which alerts you if the water level rises above the sump pump intake. It has a cast-iron pump to prevent overheating and burnout. It has a CleanPump pump stand that elevates the sump pump to prevent clogging.  It has a check valve to prevent pumped water from re-entering.  Lastly, it has an improved float valve to ensure long term performance.

A customer in Jackson approached us with a wet crawl space that needed help before it would be invaded by mold. Luckily, we had just the fix to keep this homeowner's basement dry from the outside enviornment. We installed our moisture fighting CleanSpace system. 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. This liner should also be combined with CleanSpace vent covers to insulate and seal the air out.

Our customer Greg, from Jackson, MI had standing water in his crawlspace. Greg also admitted that he was worried about the sagging support beam below his home. He saw an Ayers Basement Systems truck on the highway and wrote down our phone number. He was hoping we were the local experts that could end all of his crawlspace struggles. Greg gave us a call one morning.

After assessing Greg’s crawlspace needs, we installed our patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system to address the current moisture issues being faced below his home. The CleanSpace encapsulation product is a thick plastic lining that completely seals off the crawl space from the ornery elements it faces below. The CleanSpace drainage matting we installed will allow the water to easily flow to the Super Sump. The Super Sump is a budget conscious sump pump system that contains an air tight lid, floor drain, pump stand, and a pump alarm. These are the essential features needed to help keep a basement dry.

We also determined that Greg’s foundation needed additional support. To supplement the CleanSpace and support his home we installed three Smart Jacks. The Smart Jack is a supplemental support system for crawl space applications. The Smart Jack effectively supports sagging beams and floor joists caused by, a length of span greater than spanning capability, floor load increased after construction, exceeding design values, and weakening over time due to high moisture and rot. With this completed system in place, it became evident that Greg’s cranky crawlspace was no match for our level of expertise.
