Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

All-Dry of the Carolinas has been in the waterproofing business for over twenty-five years. We’ve seen everything. Nothing surprises us anymore, especially something as common as a dirt crawlspace. So, we weren’t surprised when this Asheville, North Carolina homeowner contacted us about a flooding issue in their crawlspace. Not only did this crawlspace have a dirt floor, but it also had cement block walls. These walls are often trouble for crawlspaces in wet areas because they are extremely porous. They allow water to pass through them quite easily, which explains the flooding problem.

After we managed to get out to the property, our Design Specialist was able to recommend a CleanSpace liner, among other things. The liner would act as a moisture barrier, keeping the water from entering into the crawlspace. We covered the floor, the walls, and wrapped the piers in the space for added coverage.

It’s a great deal cleaner than it used to be with that CleanSpace.

This home in Woodfin, NC was getting large volumes of water into the basement and crawl space. To solve this problem they went with a variety of waterproofing products that work together to keep the space dry. CleanSpace was added to the crawl space section of the home to keep ground moisture from entering the air. CleanSpace was also added to the walls on the basement side that would lead water into the WaterGuard that was placed around the perimeter of the room. A SuperSump was added to under the home to flush water from the space.

In the before pictures you can see the basement and crawl space that are dirty and uncared for. Once our All-Dry team was able to get to work, you can see that CleanSpace was added to the crawl space section and WaterGuard added to the basement.

This home needed some work done in its crawlspace after the homeowner's found standing water and damp ground around the crawlspace. There were several products we used in this project, the main one being our CleanSpace Liner. This products helps to keep your crawlspace separated from the outside world, and especially the earth underneath your home, which is a huge contributor to moisture under the home.

The "before" photo shows part of the basement before the CleanSpace liner had been installed. You can see how the previous crawlspace liner does not even cover all of the ground. In the patch of exposed dirt, you can see damp earth, which is never a good sign.

This "after" photo shows the same area (although from a different angle) after the CleanSpace had been installed. As you can see, our liner goes at least partially up the wall, depending on what our Specialists recommend and what the homeowner decides. This customer decided to take it all the way up the crawlspace wall. Any seams are sealed tight and correctly, leaving no gaps for water or water vapor to get in, or out.

This customer wanted to encapsulate their crawlspace to keep any moisture from getting in, while also making it better looking and easier to work in.

The "before" photo shows a dark and dirty crawlspace, and even worse than that, it was exposed to the elements! The old liner they had did very little to keep water out.

The "after" photo shows what the same area looks like after we've installed our CleanSpace Liner! It is much brighter and easier to work in. But the best part about the CleanSpace Liner is that you don't have to worry about water and condensation building up under your home and causing even more problems!

CleanSpace is such a great product and makes any crawlspace look brand new! This home in Black Mountain had some much-needed help to get it to a healthy and moisture-free crawlspace. This crawlspace was completely encapsulated to prevent moisture from coming in and mold growing.

The "before" picture shows a crawlspace in desperate need of repair. You can see in this picture that several things are out of place and don't provide for a healthy crawlspace. First off, You can see the hanging insulation. This is usually never a good sign, it usually means that enough moisture has gotten into the insulation and pulled it down, making it sag or fall. You can also see the exposed earth, with the old liner pulled back. A lot of moisture in crawlspaces actually come from and are caused by the ground.

The "after" photo shows the difference that CleanSpace can make in a crawlspace. Our crew came in this crawlspace and treated it like Extreme Makeover: Crawlspace Edition. After cleaning up the crawlspace by removing the remaining insulation and moving bricks/rocks, they began to install the CleanSpace Liner. As you can tell, the CleanSpace makes the crawlspace brighter and overall, more appealing. Not only does the crawlspace look better, but it is protected. This homeowner does not have to worry about moisture, water, mold, or anything having to do with his crawlspace ever again! Oh, and the cable guy will love working in a crawlspace like this!
