Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Before: A Flooded Crawl Space and an Uncomfortable Home Above

In Tripoli, WI, this homeowner was facing persistent water and humidity issues in their crawl space. During heavy rains, the space would flood—bringing in moisture, mold risk, and musty odors that affected the home above. As an older homeowner, they were no longer able to get down into the crawl space to manage the problem, and it was clear the moisture was taking a toll on both the structure and comfort of the house.

They needed a long-term solution to eliminate water, reduce humidity, and improve the overall energy efficiency of the home—without requiring constant maintenance.

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

Sure-Dry installed a complete crawl space waterproofing and insulation system designed to eliminate water intrusion, control humidity, and create a healthier, more stable environment under the home.

What We Installed:

• A new sump pump system to actively remove water

• Drainage matting to direct moisture to the sump system

• CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier to seal out ground moisture and humidity

• Silverglo™ Insulation along the crawl space walls for added energy efficiency

• RimTight™ insulation at the rim joists to stop air leaks and moisture infiltration

• A SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier to keep humidity in check year-round

• New vent covers to fully seal off exterior air and moisture

Now, the crawl space is dry, clean, and fully encapsulated, making the entire home above warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and much more comfortable overall. The homeowner no longer has to worry about water intrusion or crawl space maintenance.

Before: A homeowner in Wautoma, WI contacted Sure-Dry after discovering standing water and high humidity in their crawl space. The damp environment was causing musty odors, insulation deterioration, and concern about potential mold growth beneath the home.

After: Our team encapsulated the area with the CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier System to seal out ground moisture and humidity. A SmartSump® Crawl Space Sump Pump System was installed to collect and discharge water, supported by an IceGuard® Discharge Line System and buried downspout extension to prevent freezing and surface discharge near the home.

The result is a dry, protected crawl space and improved air quality throughout the house.

Before: This Wausau, WI, home had a damp, unsealed crawl space with exposed soil and poor insulation. Moisture and cold drafts entered freely, leading to musty odors, chilly floors, and high humidity levels inside the home.

After: Sure-Dry completed a full crawl space encapsulation using the CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier System and RimTight™ insulation. The vapor barrier now keeps out ground moisture, while RimTight seals the rim joists to stop drafts and improve energy performance throughout the home.

The homeowner now enjoys a warmer, healthier, and more energy-efficient home with lasting protection against moisture and air leaks.

Before:
The homeowners in Wausau were dealing with musty odors, high humidity, and cold floors above their crawl space. During inspection, the space showed exposed soil, moisture intrusion, deteriorated insulation, and substantial air leakage at the rim joists. These issues were being amplified by Marathon County’s mixed soil conditions and seasonal temperature fluctuations, causing condensation and heat loss throughout the home.

After:
Sure-Dry encapsulated the entire crawl space using CleanSpace® to seal off ground moisture and create a controlled environment. RimTight™ air sealing was used along the perimeter to stop outside air infiltration and improve overall thermal performance.
The finished system now delivers a dry, energy-efficient crawl space with improved comfort and reduced humidity inside the home.

The crawl space in this Wausau, WI home had issues with water, pests, and drafts which were affecting the living space above it.
