Rodent infestation, horrible smell, musty damp insulation pulled out of floor joists, we cleaned it out, sprayed with germicide , re-insulated for a full perimeter seal, put in rodent proof steel mesh , clean space to encapsulate it all and a dehumidifier to regulate the relative humidity.
The homeowner had water coming in from an elevated crawlspace, running down an interior wall in his basement. We installed a 3-inch drain tile and stone to collect and direct the water into a sump. Afterward, we insulated and sealed the entire system.

We transformed the crawl space by installing a thick plastic liner to protect it from moisture and mould. This liner was securely fastened to the foundation and walls. We also added a special door to seal it off, and installed insulation to keep the home warmer and more energy-efficient. All gaps were carefully sealed to prevent air leaks
We start by clearing out the crawl space, removing any debris, old insulation, and the worn-out vapor barrier to create a clean slate. To keep moisture at bay, we lay down a drainage mat and secure a tough, protective moisture barrier across the floor, footings, and walls. Next, we upgrade the insulation along the walls and rim joists, sealing any gaps to boost energy efficiency. A new insulated crawl space door is installed for better access and added protection. To prevent mold, we treat all wood surfaces with a specialized solution and install a dehumidifier to keep humidity levels in check. A drainage system is also set up to handle excess moisture. Finally, we reinforce the structure by installing adjustable support jacks to stabilize the floor joists. The end result? A cleaner, drier, and stronger crawl space that improves air quality, insulation, and the overall durability of your home.
