All-Dry of the Carolinas Before & After Photos

Our crew installed CleanSpace and transformed this dark and dirty crawlspace, into a clean and bright crawlspace. 

Foundation issues are a problem that should never be put on hold. As much as we want it to be able to stop, the problem will grow and become worse as time passes. This Central, SC homeowner had major issues in the basement. The moister under the home had caused foundation to weaken and shift. But our All-Dry of the Carolinas team has the perfect permanent solution to this issue with SmartJacks!

This customer, as with many other of our customers, had a moisture and mold problem in their crawlspace. The best way to remedy this is to call us to figure out exactly what you need! In this case, our system design specialist recommended Mold-X in order to get rid of any existing mold, and a CleanSpace Liner in order to prevent any further moisture from entering the crawlspace.

The "before" photo shows what moisture has done to this crawlspace and insulation. When there is excess moisture in the crawlspace, the insulation gets heavy and begins to fall. This is what has happened in this photo.

The "after" photo shows the same area our crew had installed the CleanSpace Encapsulation system. You can see that the customer opted to remove all of their installation, because of this we installed our Silver Glo Insulation, which helps cut down on heating and cooling costs. The customer can decide later on wheather they would like to reinstall insulation or leave it the way it is!

One of the most popular products for our crews to install is WaterGuard. WaterGuard is a basement drain that keeps water that is soaking through the basement walls, from getting to the floor. The WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the basement and collects the water before it can get to the floor to sit and evaporate. This is what we installed in this home, as well as a SuperSump pump system.

The "before" photo shows an area in the basement without any products having been installed. You can see a few spots throughout the picture, mainly on the wall, where you can see the areas that water has come through. The most obvious area is in the middle of the picture, to the left of the black pipe. This is never a good sign because it means that water is making its way into your home, and could eventually cause problems with your home, and even your health.

The "after" photo shows what the basement looked like after our crew came in and installed the products for the homeowner. While there is not actually much to see, the system that was installed does a fantastic job at keeping the basement dry. The water is collected in the WaterGuard which drains the water to the sump pump, which then pumps the water outside.

This business was having some pretty serious issues with drainage from their building's downspouts. The water was getting into the business' basement, as well as beginning to cause foundation issues. In order to help the owner out, we installed some downspout extensions, as well as install a drain that ran all the way to the sewer drain.

The "before" picture shows the area that the drain will later be installed. As of now, the water has a path to the drain, but it isn't a very direct, or easy path to follow, which is especially important in heavier rains/flash flooding. Between the drain that will be installed here and the downspout extensions, this business owner won't have to worry about water standing around the foundation.

The "after" photo is a much different story than before, showing the same area but with the drain that runs directly to the sewer. Having this direct path to the sewer is so helpful, especially with the downspout extensions that go straight into a drain that connects with the one "seen" in the picture. This means that all of the water coming in from the roof and gutters is running straight into this drain. This means that the water is not just sitting on the structure's foundation, leading to further issues.
