Home Foundation Repair Photo Album: Nasty Wet Crawl Space Transformation in Woodbine, GA

In Woodbine, GA, a homeowner grappled with a troublesome crawl space inundation problem, exacerbated by soaring humidity levels. Our comprehensive evaluation uncovered significant concerns, such as dislodged insulation and alarmingly elevated wood moisture levels, which threatened both structural integrity and mold growth. To ensure robust protection for the home, we executed the CleanSpace Encapsulation System, deftly reigning in moisture and adeptly handling excess water, ultimately converting the crawl space into a dry and fortified haven.

Crawl Space Flooding

The crawl space is inundated with water, and insulation litters the ground, showing the extent of moisture issues.

Subfloor Moisture Damage

The subfloor bears the brunt of high humidity and moisture, leading to visible deterioration due to insulation soaked by dripping moisture.

Elevated Wood Moisture

During the inspection, our team discovered dangerously high wood moisture levels, a result of the crawl space's excessive humidity.

Wall Stains and Efflorescence

Stains and efflorescence on the wall are telltale signs of water intrusion and mineral deposits, further highlighting the moisture problem.

Waterproofing Channel Installation

We installed a waterproofing drainage channel to effectively manage water entering the crawl space.

Sump Pump Connection

The drainage channel connects to the sump pump basin, which is responsible for efficiently removing water from the crawl space.

Drainage Matting Installation

The installation of drainage matting serves as the initial layer of the CleanSpace Encapsulation System, enhancing the drainage of water to the waterproofing system.

After Encapsulation

Following encapsulation, the crawl space is now clean, dry, and protected against moisture-related issues.

Foamax Wall Barrier

Foamax insulative wall barriers were added to seal off outside air, serving as both thermal and moisture barriers.
