MidSouth Crawl Space Solutions Before & After Photos

The wood underneath your floors, including subfloors and joists, are susceptible to damage from moisture lingering in your crawl space. We get many calls from homeowners who want us to come out and look at their sinking or soft floors, and most of the time, moisture is the cause! We moisture-proof and encapsulate a lot of crawl spaces in order to prevent this damage or further damage, but sometimes the wood is just too far gone. Did you know that we can also handle that as well? Check out the work recently done by our wood-working crew!

This home owner realized they needed our help when the floors started buckling. We were able to help them by installing a vapor barrier, wall curtains, column wraps, a dehumidifier, and sump pump. This created a clean space that will help the owners floors lay back down and keep from buckling ever again.

Encapsulation

This home was experiencing severe moisture issues in the crawlspace causing mold and musty smells. Andrew Gallagher inspected the home and found the wood to be holding 15-60% moisture along the joists. This is dangerous because it will cause toxic mold and rot to from on the wooden foundation. It especially thrives in a damp, dark atmosphere, like under your house. Before this issue got worse, our team came in and totally dried and cleaned out the crawlspace. We installed our sump pump in the lowest spot to collect the ground water, then put our vapor barrier CleanSpace liner in and up the walls, and finally connected our dehumidifier to the system to get the air fresh and clean. Our system totally regulates the crawlspace humidity and moisture content, keeping the home stable, dry, and clean for years and years to come.
