Moisture in Laurens, SC Crawlspace Leads to CleanSpace Encapsulation

High moisture levels under homes is an issue that doesn't discriminate. This issue can occur with any size home, big or small, and can happen almost anywhere in the world. There are, of course, some areas that are more prone to and are affected more by this excess moisture. Unfortunately, here in South Carolina we tend to have much higher humidity levels than at least most of the rest of the United States. This higher humidity level leads to more moisture under the homes here as well, which leads us to the unfortunate situation that this homeowner was in.

This homeowner began to worry about the moisture levels in the crawlspace, when they thought about having new wood floors installed. Having hardwood floors ruined because of too much moisture in the crawlspace happens quite often, which is probably the reason why the company who was installing the floors had checked the crawlspace humidity level. The first photo shows off what the crawlspace looked like when our System Design Specialist first went out to the home. The damp earth can be seen around the perimeter of the crawlspace, indicating too much moisture.

The crawlspace was completely transformed after the crew made their way to the home! While there were many different steps from the first picture to this finished product, it was certainly worth it. CleanSpace is able to completely transform a crawlspace and turn it into a place that is almost unrecognizable of what it used to be. CleanSpace does a great job at making crawlspaces look much different, but more importantly CleanSpace is able to seal off a crawlspace from the outside world, keeping the majority of water and moisture out of the crawlspace.
