Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Before:
A homeowner in Marathon had a damp, musty crawl space with exposed soil and porous foundation walls. Humidity crept into the living space and the floors above felt chilly—especially in winter.

After:
We installed CleanSpace® across the crawl space floor and up the walls (wrapping piers and sealing all seams) to create a continuous vapor barrier, then added SilverGlo® rigid foam insulation on the walls for lasting thermal performance.

The crawl space is now dry, sealed, and insulated—improving comfort, reducing odors, and helping the home maintain healthy humidity year-round.

In Arkdale, WI, our team at Sure-Dry faced a crawl space with inadequate previous encapsulation. This left the home vulnerable to moisture issues and poor energy efficiency. As shown in the before photo, this situation required immediate attention. To resolve this, we expertly installed SilverGlo™ Crawl Space Wall Insulation. Its advanced graphite-infused composition boasts a radiant heat barrier. This ensures a strong insulation performance rating of R-11, as seen in the after photo. By choosing SilverGlo, we delivered a dry, energy-efficient crawl space with enhanced vapor protection.

Before: Damp, Dirty, and Inefficient

In Montello, WI, a homeowner contacted Sure-Dry after discovering that their crawl space was damp, musty, and visibly moldy. Cold floors in the winter and high humidity levels throughout the year were also making the home uncomfortable and energy-inefficient.

The crawl space had exposed soil, falling insulation, and air leaks around the rim joists—creating the perfect environment for moisture buildup, wood rot, and poor indoor air quality.

After: A Clean, Dry, and Energy-Efficient Crawl Space

Sure-Dry designed and installed a complete crawl space encapsulation and dehumidification system that included:

• CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier: A durable, bright white liner installed along the floor and walls to seal out ground moisture and create a clean, usable space.

• RimTight™ Spray Foam Insulation: Applied to rim joists and sill plates to stop air leakage and heat loss.

• SaniDry™ Sedona Dehumidifier: Installed to maintain optimal humidity levels year-round and prevent mold growth.

The transformation was immediate. The space is now dry, mold-resistant, energy-efficient, and significantly healthier for the entire home above.
