Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Before:
A homeowner in Spencer had sagging, bouncy floors over a crawl space. Old wood posts sat on soil, shims were crushed, and seasonal moisture had softened bearing points—leading to dips along the main beam and sticky doors upstairs.

After:
We installed SmartJack® adjustable steel supports on engineered footings, added a supplemental steel beam where spans were over-stressed, and pre-loaded the jacks to re-establish proper bearing and reduce floor deflection.

The floors are now solid and level, and the home has a clean, adjustable support system for long-term stability.

Tucked away in Unity, WI, a musty crawlspace cast a shadow over an otherwise perfect home. This before-and-after snapshot captures our journey from damp to dry. Initially, the cramped, moist conditions fostered a less-than-ideal atmosphere - evident in the 'before' photo. Our team swiftly intervened, employing SilverGlo insulation and CleanSpace liner to combat moisture and temper the chill. Notice in the 'after' photo, the transformation into a clean, bright, and dry space, offering peace of mind and a sound foundation for the home. Through expertise and innovation, Sure-Dry ensures lasting comfort and efficiency for your sanctuary.

Before

The homeowner in Marshfield, WI was experiencing moisture concerns in their crawl space and wanted a permanent solution to improve the health and efficiency of the home. The exposed earth floor allowed ground moisture to enter the crawl space, contributing to damp conditions and concerns about mold, odors, and energy loss. The homeowner also wanted to improve the insulation value of the crawl space while ensuring any water that entered the area would be properly managed. Homeowners facing similar conditions often search for crawl space repair, crawl space repair contractor, musty crawl space odor solutions, and moisture control systems to protect their homes from long-term damage.

After years of dealing with a damp, unconditioned crawl space, the homeowner wanted a comprehensive system that would address insulation, moisture control, and water management while creating a cleaner environment beneath the home.

After

Sure-Dry designed a complete crawl space encapsulation and moisture control solution for the home. The crawl space walls were insulated using the SilverGlo Crawl Space Insulation Panels to help improve energy efficiency and reduce heat loss. The floor and walls were then covered with the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, creating a durable barrier designed to help isolate the crawl space from ground moisture and humidity. To provide reliable water management, a SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System was installed to collect and remove water before it could accumulate beneath the home.

The completed crawl space repair project transformed the area into a cleaner, drier, and more energy-efficient environment. By combining insulation, encapsulation, and water management into one system, the homeowner gained greater peace of mind and long-term protection for the home.

Before
A homeowner in Medford, WI had a small crawl space beneath an addition that connected directly to the main basement. The exposed area was vulnerable to both ground moisture and water accumulation, allowing damp conditions from this relatively small space to potentially affect the adjoining basement. Moisture entering through exposed soil can contribute to increased humidity, musty odors, and concerns for the wooden framing above, while groundwater entering the area needs a reliable way to be collected and removed. Central Wisconsin’s rainfall, snowmelt, and changing soil moisture made addressing both sources of water an important part of the crawl space repair.
After
Sure-Dry transformed the area with the CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier System, installing the durable liner across the crawl space and extending it up the foundation walls to isolate the addition from ground moisture. A SuperSump® Sump Pump System was also installed to provide a reliable collection and removal point for water entering the area. By combining crawl space encapsulation with an active sump pump system, Sure-Dry addressed both water vapor and liquid water rather than simply covering the exposed ground. The homeowner now has a cleaner, drier crawl space beneath the addition with improved moisture protection for the connected basement.
