A home inspector mentioned to the owner of this home that they had extreme humidity levels in the crawl space. There was an existing dehumidifier and plastic barrier in the crawl space, but the barrier was not sealed and the dehumidifier was constantly running, too weak to effectively dehumidify the space. Our team installed the CleanSpace Encapsulation System in the crawl space, sealing out groundwater seepage and effectively monitoring & controlling the humidity level.
A homebuyer in Mount Pleasant, SC, requested an encapsulation estimate and inspection for damage found during a previous inspection. Our inspector discovered a wet and moldy crawl space with humid air entering through open vents, leading to moisture buildup and potential damage. To address this issue, our team installed a CleanSpace Encapsulation System and sealed off the vents with Foamax barrier insulation to control moisture levels and prevent future damage. With this solution, the homeowner can rest assured that their new home is protected from the harmful effects of excessive moisture.
Our Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System dramatically reduces humidity levels in crawl spaces and prevents nasty, moldy smells from going up into your house.
High humidity in this crawlspace made it the perfect place for insects and rodents to live. A Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation system was installed to create a less suitable environment for the nasty critters.
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!
