One of the most common projects that we do here at All-Dry of the Carolinas are full crawlspace encapsulations with CleanSpace. This basically means that at the very least, CleanSpace is laid over the entire crawlspace and is sealed to the walls. However, the CleanSpace is usually installed with several other products. Of course, the products that are used differ from job to job, depending on the severity of the problems, and what exactly the homeowner hopes to get from the system.

The "before" picture shows off the crawlspace before the CleanSpace was installed by the crew. However, the crawlspace didn't look quite this nice when the crew arrived. This photo was taken after they had cleaned out the area a little bit and sealed the vents, which can be seen along the top of the wall. Our Specialist noted a higher than average relative humidity level, which was one of the main concerns of the homeowner.

The "after" photo shows the same area, but with the CleanSpace almost completely installed. The liner has been completely laid out, with drainage matting under it, there is just one step left in the process, which you can actually see being done in this photo. One of the most important parts of installing CleanSpace is to make sure that it is sealed correctly. The reason that this is so important is because if the CleanSpace is not sealed correctly, then water vapor and moisture can still get into the area, which is exactly what we want to not happen.

One extremely common sign of high moisture levels is insulation falling. This is because insulation is very absorbent and will soak up the moisture that is in the air. The insulation then becomes heavier, which causes it to sag and begin falling down. At this point, the humidity levels are already high enough to cause concern, the wet insulation could start growing mold. 

This was almost the exact case with this homeowner in Chapin, SC. They had been noticing water in the crawlspace during heavy rains and began seeing that some of the insulation was falling down. One of the main reasons for the high humidity levels was because the crawlspace was not sealed up in any way. Water could get into the crawlspace and sit there evaporating because nothing was stopping it. However, we were able to stop this by encapsulating their crawlspace.

The "after" picture shows off the same area in the crawlspace, but with our CleanSpace installed. The difference it makes is absolutely incredible. During this project, our crew also removed the damp, falling insulation to ensure that mold wouldn't have anywhere to grow. During the installation, CleanSpace is securely fastened and sealed to the walls and pillars under the home. This is what really sets the CleanSpace and our installation apart from other liners.

Not all crawlspaces are in desperate need of a vapor barrier or encapsulation system, but this doesn't mean that they aren't useful. One of the most useful parts of CleanSpace (besides water and moisture control) is that it makes your crawlspace into a clean, more usable area. After everything is sealed off, the area is much cleaner and can be used for storage. 

The "before" photo of this crawlspace in Chapin, SC shows how the area looked before our installation. Since this was an older home, the insulation had began to fall slightly. The main concern is the floor, with an old crawlspace liner and debris. While this looks like the typical crawlspace you may see under most homes, CleanSpace can completely transform the look of it. 

The "after" picture shows the same area but after the CleanSpace was installed by our crew. The CleanSpace completely transforms the look of the crawlspace. The area went from a dark, scary place into a clean, usable area. One of the great things about having our CleanSpace installed is that it creates a clean area for storage!

Job Stories From Chapin, SC
Wet Chapin, SC Crawlspace with Falling Insulation Has Full CleanSpace Encapsulation

Damp, wet, moist, and humid crawlspaces are things that we deal with just about every day here at All-Dry of the Carolinas. Having water or high humidity in a crawlspace can be a much more serious problem than people may realize. It can cause serious problems with the structure and support of the home, health problems (if mold is growing), and many other issues. This is definitely something that homeowners should keep a look out for and be proactive about. 

This homeowner in Chapin decided to give us a call when they began noticing water pooling up under their home and when their insulation was falling down. After our System Design Specialist went out to the home and took a look at the area, he designed a system specifically for this home to protect the home from any further water intrusion or damage. After taking a look at the proposal our Design Specialist drew up, the homeowner decided to go ahead and move forward with the work.

Our crew came out to the home and got straight to work on encapsulating this crawlspace. One of the first things that they had to do was to remove all of the wet, possibly moldy insulation. After that was taken care of, the crew started working on the drain tile and the SmartSump Pump system which is how the water is drained and pumped away from the home. The biggest part of the installation process was the CleanSpace, which had to be rolled out and sealed up. The final piece of the installation was the SaniDry dehumidifier in order to make sure the humidity level of the crawlspace stays below the point where mold can grow.

Water Intrusion in Chapin, SC Basement Leads to Installation of WaterGuard Drain

Water intrusion in a basement is not anything new to us here at All-Dry of the Carolinas. Between our System Design Specialists and Production crews, we see this just about every day. While this is never an exciting issue for homeowners to deal with, it is something that we specialize in taking care quite frequently and have done thousands of times before. 

This homeowner was having some pretty serious water intrusion when our System Design Specialist first stopped by the home. Enough so that part of the concrete in the basement needed to be released. While this wasn't great for the homeowner, it gave us the opportunity to install our WaterGuard Drain before the new concrete was poured. This benefited both the homeowner and our company. 

The last two photos show off the area where our crew installed the WaterGuard. It is installed around the edge of the basement in order to catch any water coming through the basement floor/wall joint. After our crew was finished with the installation the homeowners went ahead and had some concrete poured to cover everything back up. The WaterGuard has a flange that leaves a small gap between the floor and wall that allows water to get into the WaterGuard. It then flows to the SuperSump that was also installed, where it will be pumped out and away from the home. That was the last piece of the installation and all our crew had left to do was to make sure to clean everything up!
