Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Facing a damp and musty crawl space, as seen in the 'before' photo, this homeowner in Crivitz, WI, turned to us for help. Draftiness and a persistent musty odor made their home uncomfortable. Our team transformed their space with CleanSpace, visible in the 'after' photo. This innovative product seals away moisture and eliminates drafts. Thanks to this solution, the homeowner now enjoys a drier, fresher home environment. The before and after speak volumes to the peace of mind we deliver.

Before:
The crawl space had exposed soil, musty odors, and seasonal puddling. Leaky rim joists let in cold, humid air, leaving floors above chilly and adding moisture to the space. Without a dedicated drainage or humidity system, the area felt damp year-round.

After:
We encapsulated the crawl space with CleanSpace®—sealed across the floor and up the walls with tight, taped seams and mechanical fastening. Around the perimeter, joints and penetrations were sealed, and vents were closed to block outside air. We air-sealed and insulated the rim with RimTight™ to stop drafts and reduce condensation. For water management, we installed a SuperSump® with an airtight lid and check valve. Finally, a Sedona dehumidifier was added to maintain healthy relative humidity and drain automatically.

The result is a dry, clean, and tighter crawl space that improves comfort and air quality in the home above.

Before:
A homeowner in Kewaunee was facing multiple crawl space issues. Water seeped in at the floor and wall joints, creating damp conditions and musty odors. On top of that, the wooden beams supporting the floor above had weakened, causing noticeable sagging in certain areas of the home.

After:
Our team installed a complete system to address both the moisture and structural concerns. WaterGuard® was installed along the crawl space perimeter to capture water and channel it to the SuperSump® sump pump, which reliably discharges it away from the home. The crawl space was encapsulated with the CleanSpace® vapor barrier, sealing out ground moisture and dramatically improving the environment. To restore structural stability, we installed SmartJack® supports, which reinforced the failing beams and lifted the sagging floors back toward their original position.

The crawl space is now dry, stable, and healthy, giving the homeowner peace of mind knowing their foundation and living space are fully protected.
