Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Before:
A homeowner in Crandon was dealing with a damp, musty crawl space. Exposed soil and seasonal moisture led to high humidity, condensation on wood, and cold first-floor rooms—especially near the rim joists where outside air leaked in.

After:
We encapsulated the crawl space with CleanSpace® vapor barrier (floor, walls, and wrapped piers), insulated the walls with SilverGlo® rigid foam, air-sealed the rim joists with RimTight™, and installed an UltraSump® system to actively remove any collected water—even during outages with its battery backup.

The crawl space is now clean, dry, sealed, and insulated—improving comfort, air quality, and energy efficiency year-round.

This crawl space in Mount Calvary, WI was damaged from years of water intrusion and moisture damage.  

To solve the crawl space's water issue, Sure-Dry Basement Systems installed their SuperSump® Premier Pump System. It is engineered to help keep the crawl space dry and healthy for extended periods of time, even in times of heavy water intrusion. The SuperSump includes a powerful Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement.

To create a vapor barrier to protect the crawl space from moisture damage and mold, Sure-Dry installed their CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier System. This durable, bright white crawl space liner installs on the walls and floors, preventing water vapor and humidity from passing through. By keeping your crawl space dry, you protect your structure and insulation from mold and rot.

With a 25-year warranty against rips and tears, this durable 20-mil poly-reinforced crawl space liner converts your crawl space into a usable storage area. And with its mold-resistant additive "UltraFresh", CleanSpace will never support mildew or mold growth on its surface.

This crawl space in Appleton was very inefficient which was affecting the comfort and moisture levels of the home above it. To fix these issues, we installed a combination of SilverGlo™ Crawl Space Wall Insulation panels, CleanSpace and RimTight joist insulation to effectively separate and protect the crawl space from outdoor conditions, helping keep it, and the home clean and dry.

Homeowners in Appleton, WI are not enjoying the cold air this winter is bringing but they have started to notice their floors being too cold and it seems as though their house is harder to heat. Confused at what was going on they decided to call experts at Sure-Dry.

Our crew came over and analyzed the situation. They discovered that the cold air was entering through their crawlspace. Eager to get the problem resolved, we installed our SilverGlo Liner. Our SilverGlo product is extremely useful in heating crawlspaces. It is made of an insulated foam and tiny particles inside the foam reflect heat back into the crawlspace while also insulating it. 

These homeowners are relieved to know they aren't paying for a higher heating bill when it's not needed and to simply know their home is not open to the cold, winter air.

In the before photo, notice how water accumulation was a significant problem in this Appleton crawl space, with moisture threatening the health and integrity of the home.

It's designed to efficiently discharge water and prevent damage. With sealed protection and high-volume capacity, your home stays secure from damp conditions.
