Before & After Photos

This home was experiencing water intrusion in the crawlspace, causing pooling in a corner under the home. It was constantly damp leaving musty smells and frustrated homeowners. 

Not only do we install our exclusive CleanSpace liner in every crawlspace we encapsulate, but we preface it with drainage matting underneath. Drainage matting prevents abrasion holes in the CleanSpace liner, provides a drainage space, and the airspace is a thermal break between the cold earth and the CleanSpace. This break raises the temperature of the liner more towards the indoor temperature, not the earth temperature, meaning it keeps the crawlspace very close to the temperature inside your home. Not only does our system keep the space under your house clean and dry, it also insulates it! That's a WIN-WIN!

Here is one of the muddy and messy crawlspaces that we were able to transform into a dry, clean space. Even though crawlspaces are typically out of sight, the condition of the underside of your home has the chance of negatively affecting your home. The moist air that enters crawlspaces will make its way upwards and could potentially damage your floors, like was seen in this case. The homeowners wanted to prevent their floors from buckling again in the future, and an Encapsulation is our permanent solution. The white liner you can see on the ground is our heavy-duty Cleanspace Liner, it will prevent moisture from making its way into the crawlspace. Under the liner is our Drainage Matting, shaped to help guide water toward one of our installed sump pumps, that will send water outside of the home. With all this combined, the result is a dry crawlspace and a safe home.

Check out the drastic change our encapsulation system had on this crawlspace in Kosciusko, MS. Things aren't just changed appearance-wise, the health of this crawl space has also improved! This extreme protection against water and humidity means moisture damage will not pose a threat, and sinking floors and joists will be a worry of the past.

In Kosciusko, MS, we were called by a homeowner who cherished their vintage house yet faced a daunting issue. The antique structure, known for its character, was showing its age through failing columns that needed additional support. The uneven floors and sagging joists were not just cosmetic problems but potential threats to the home's structural integrity. Our proven process kicked off smoothly. The homeowner spoke with one of our dedicated Customer Care Specialists, who promptly scheduled an inspection. Our expert System Design Specialist arrived at the site, conducting a thorough evaluation to understand the extent of the problem. The inspection revealed that the traditional supports in the crawl space weren't tackling the challenging soil and load conditions well enough. Our team swung into action with our effective SmartJack® solution. This system is specifically designed to enhance crawl space stability. First, we prepared a solid base using engineered fill to ensure weight was evenly distributed. We then cut galvanized steel columns to precise lengths, positioning them perfectly over 12-inch steel bases. They were firmly secured to the existing or new girders through robust adjustable brackets. The heavy-duty threaded rods provided us with the ability to make fine adjustments, raising the floors toward their original elevation and effectively reducing any unwanted floor bounce. Once the installation was complete, floors regained stability that seemed long lost, restoring the homeowner's peace of mind. Our team carefully cleaned up the area, leaving the home every bit as tidy as we found it. With the new support system in place, the home in Kosciusko no longer stood threatened but was secured by a durable solution aimed at lasting protection. The satisfied homeowner could once again take pride in their treasured piece of history, with the reassurance brought about by long-lasting results.
