An open dirt crawl space left unencapsulated can leave the foundation of the home open to moisture damage. Homes are supported with wooden beams, and leaving these supports exposed to a harsh environment with high humidity, they will weaken over time. Furthermore, an unsealed crawlspace can become a breeding ground for mold, mildew, and allergens, ruining the health and air quality of the home. Using the CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier, a thick, moisture-resistant barrier, this crawl space has been transformed into a clean, dry, moisture-controlled space.
Mike K. of Richmond Hill, GA called Lowcountry Foundation Repair with a problem. The plastic under his home was not protecting his foundation. During a termite inspection, pools of water were noticed. Failing insulation was also noticed and documented. Mike had the plastic put down to prevent foundation and mold problems but it wasn’t working.
He called the experts at Lowcountry Foundation Repair for help. We installed a Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation System. The system came with a 25-year warranty that is transferable to the next homeowner, should Mike ever decide to sell his home.
Chris B. of Richmond Hill, GA, previously had a plastic liner laid down in his crawl space to fix his moisture problem. However, the liner was not high-quality, nor were the crawl space vents sealed. Warm humid air flowed into the cool crawl space continuing the moisture problem.
Lowcountry Basement Systems installed a Complete CleanSpace Encapsulation to reduce moisture and remove humidity from the crawl space. The job took three days to complete and Chris noticed a difference in his home after two weeks. He was very happy with the job and wish he would have called Lowcountry Basement Systems first.
