Lowcountry Foundation and Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Betty P. of Mount Pleasant, SC had a problem in her crawl space. The moisture level under her home was too high. She could feel soft spots in her floor. Betty called Lowcountry Foundation Repair to help her protect the home she loved.

We sent an inspector to Betty’s home and recommended encapsulating the crawl space. Encapsulation would prevent moisture from weakening the joists, beam and subfloor. Betty had the work done and was thrilled to protect her home!

This Mount Pleasant, SC homeowner contacted Lowcountry Foundation Repair when he noticed settlement issues with his home and wanted to learn more about crawl space encapsulation. He scheduled a free appointment with one of our trusted inspectors.

Our inspector suggested he encapsulate his crawl space with CleanSpace, a seven-layer reinforced polyethylene that isolates the home from the earth and reduces humidity levels. He also suggested the homeowner installs a SaniDry Sedona, a dehumidifier that maintains the relative humidity in the crawl space to prevent moisture and microbial growth. With CleanSpace and a Sedona, this homeowner will be saving money on energy bills and keep his home value from depreciating by 10 percent! 

After four days of installation, the crawl space was encapsulated and the homeowner was very happy with the outcome!
