Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

In Eldorado, WI, this crawl space was plagued by mold and moisture, threatening both comfort and energy efficiency. Noticing the neglected state before our intervention, we addressed these issues comprehensively. We installed RimTight insulation at the rim joist, significantly reducing heat loss and unconditioned air intrusion. CleanSpace encapsulation, along with strategic Drainage Matting, redirected water and blocked future dampness. Our advanced SilverGlo insulation further ensured a dry, energy-efficient environment. Now, this once problematic space boasts lasting protection and improved energy control, as evidenced in the after photo.

Before The crawl space beneath this Summit Lake, WI home was exposed to moisture and outside air, creating conditions that can lead to musty odors, elevated humidity, and reduced energy efficiency. The open crawl space environment allowed moisture to migrate through the area, which can contribute to concerns commonly associated with crawl space repair and long-term structural health in northern Wisconsin homes.

After Sure-Dry transformed the crawl space by installing the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System across the crawl space floor and walls to help isolate the space from ground moisture and humidity. To further improve energy efficiency and air sealing, RimTight™ insulation was applied to the rim joist areas, helping reduce air leakage and temperature fluctuations. Together, these crawl space repair solutions created a cleaner, drier, and more energy-efficient environment beneath the home, helping protect the structure from Wisconsin's seasonal moisture and temperature changes.

Before

This New London, WI home had two smaller crawl spaces located beneath additions that had been built onto the original home. Both areas had exposed surfaces that allowed ground moisture and humidity to enter the spaces below the living areas.

Even smaller crawl spaces can affect the home above them. Moisture entering from exposed soil and foundation walls can contribute to musty odors, elevated humidity, and damp crawl space conditions. Wisconsin's seasonal temperature changes can make controlling moisture in these enclosed areas especially important.

After

Sure-Dry encapsulated both crawl spaces using CleanSpace®. The durable liner was installed across the floors and extended up the crawl space walls, separating the areas from ground and wall moisture.

CleanSpace creates a continuous moisture barrier that helps reduce water vapor entering the crawl space while providing a much cleaner environment beneath the additions. Extending the system up the walls is an important part of the encapsulation because moisture can enter through more than just the exposed ground.

With both crawl spaces encapsulated, these additions now have cleaner, drier and better-protected areas underneath them.

Before

This older New London, WI home had changed over the years as additions were built onto the original structure. Beneath portions of the home were crawl spaces with exposed fieldstone foundation walls and ground surfaces that allowed moisture and humid air into the areas below the living space.

Older fieldstone crawl spaces can be particularly challenging because of their irregular surfaces, numerous gaps and the amount of moisture that can migrate through the stone and soil. Wisconsin's changing seasons, wet weather and freeze-thaw cycles can make these conditions even more noticeable.

Damp crawl spaces can contribute to musty odors, elevated humidity and moisture around the wood framing supporting the floors above.

After

Sure-Dry encapsulated the crawl space using CleanSpace®. The durable liner was installed across the ground and carefully extended up the irregular fieldstone foundation walls to create a more complete moisture barrier.

Working around an older home's fieldstone foundation and additions requires careful installation because the surfaces aren't as uniform as those found in newer poured-concrete or block foundations. The CleanSpace system was fitted to the unique layout of these crawl spaces to separate the home from moisture coming through the ground and foundation surfaces.

The finished encapsulation provides a cleaner, drier environment beneath the home and helps protect the structure above from the effects of crawl space moisture.

Homeowners in New London have been experiencing excess water in their crawlspace. Worried at what can come about of having water in their crawlspace; like getting sick through mold growth, they decided to call Sure-Dry Basement Systems to have us come in and have a look at their problem. 

We noticed right away how moist the room was and in some areas, puddles of water have formed. To remove the water and keep it permanently out of their crawlspace, we installed our CleanSpace Wall Protection. Our wall protection completely wraps around the walls and floor of the crawlspace acting as a thick and durable liner to keep water out from the inside of your home. We even feel so confident in it that it won't rip or tear we have a 25-year warranty on it!!
