Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Before
This crawl space had a sand and dirt floor that allowed constant ground moisture to migrate into the space, contributing to damp conditions, musty odors, and elevated humidity levels. The exposed earth combined with unsealed rim joists created pathways for moisture and cold air intrusion, while the lack of a reliable drainage and pumping system left the crawl space vulnerable to water accumulation during heavy rain and snowmelt—clear indicators that crawl space repair and crawl space encapsulation were needed.

After
Sure-Dry encapsulated the crawl space by installing CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier over the sand and dirt floor to block ground moisture, sealed and insulated the rim joists with RimTight™ to stop air leakage, and added a SmartSump® system to actively manage groundwater and protect against flooding.
The crawl space is now dry, sealed, and properly protected, helping improve indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and long-term structural durability.

Before:
A homeowner in Hancock was dealing with serious crawl space concerns. The dirt floor allowed moisture and odors to rise into the home, wooden beams were showing signs of stress, and the space lacked insulation. The combination of high humidity, poor energy efficiency, and weakened support left the homeowner looking for a complete, permanent solution.

After:
Our team transformed the crawl space with a comprehensive system. The area was sealed with the CleanSpace® vapor barrier to block out ground moisture. We installed SilverGlo® insulation panels along the crawl space walls to improve energy efficiency and reflect heat back into the home. To address sagging beams, we added SmartJacks® for strong, adjustable support.

Finally, we installed a Sedona dehumidifier to keep humidity under control and protect the entire space from mold and rot.

Now, the crawl space is dry, stable, energy-efficient, and healthy — protecting the home’s foundation while making the living space above more comfortable year-round.

Before:
A homeowner in Athens had a small, low-clearance crawl space with exposed soil, musty odors, and chilly floors above. Seasonal humidity led to light condensation on wood and air leaks at the rim joists made the first floor drafty.

After:
We encapsulated the space with CleanSpace® liner (floor and walls, wrapped piers, all seams sealed), insulated the crawl space walls with SilverGlo® rigid foam, and air-sealed rim joists and penetrations using RimTight™ to block outside air.

The crawl space is now dry, sealed, and insulated—improving comfort, air quality, and energy efficiency throughout the home.

Before:
A new homeowner in Coloma, WI noticed consistently elevated humidity in their previously encapsulated crawl space, despite the vapor barrier being intact and properly sealed. Hygrometer readings showed moisture levels nearly 40% higher than recommended, contributing to musty odors and discomfort in the upper living space. Seasonal humidity patterns across Waushara County—combined with limited air movement under the home—were allowing moisture to stay trapped in the crawl space even with encapsulation in place.

After:
To correct the issue, the crew installed a SaniDry™ dehumidification system sized specifically for the crawl space’s air volume and layout. Once operational, the system rapidly removed excess moisture, reducing humidity levels by approximately 40% within the first cycle range. The homeowners experienced immediate relief in both smell and overall indoor comfort, with system readings showing stable, controlled humidity throughout the crawl space.
The space is now properly conditioned, protected from moisture buildup, and functioning as intended within the encapsulation system.
