Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

The customer had a dirt floor in their crawlspace and wanted to get it covered. They contacted us after seeing our ads on TV. We came out and gave her an estimate on a full cralwspace encapsulation. We then went back out and installed our cleanspace to cover the dirt floor.

Garden City, MO - Moisture in the crawl space can introduce mold, rot and other health and safety issues to the home. The Nelson's knew the house they had recently moved into had previous water issues, and later learned of a failing founding wall in the basement. Keeping the crawl space dry and providing support for the foundation wall were high priorities for the home owners, and that's exactly what Thrasher did - encapsulating the crawl space with CleanSpace vapor barrier and adding much wall support with our Powerbrace system.

When this customer reached out to us, she had multiple concerns regarding her crawlspace and its impact on her home. Firstly, she needed time to address the issues with her walls but recognized the need to resolve them in due course. Additionally, she noted that her kitchen floor above the crawlspace remained persistently cold, prompting her desire to utilize the crawlspace for storage. However, the space was old, dingy, and filled with cobwebs, making it unsuitable for her intended purpose. To address these concerns, she sought our assistance in encapsulating and insulating her crawlspace. 

Understanding the importance of a clean, moisture-controlled crawlspace, our team recommended the installation of CleanSpace sheeting. This durable and reliable material acts as a barrier, preventing moisture from seeping into the crawlspace from the ground. By encapsulating the crawlspace with CleanSpace, we aimed to create a controlled environment, protecting both the space itself and the floors above.

To further enhance the functionality and durability of the encapsulation, we utilized drain matting underneath the crawlspace. This added layer of protection serves to prevent the CleanSpace sheeting from tearing or getting damaged by the ground.

The comprehensive encapsulation and insulation project was completed successfully, providing Tracy with a transformed crawlspace that met her needs and expectations. She expressed her satisfaction in a 5-star review, commending the fantastic job and the timely completion of the project.

This homeowner hated how dirty her crawlspace was because it was started to smell and stink up the whole house! She gave us a call and knew from the minute our System Design Specialist Josh Krestine walked in the door with a smile on his face and wanting to just help out with whatever he could that she wanted to work with us. Josh spoke with the homeowner about the problems she was experiencing, then he went down to the crawlspace and determined the source of her problems. He found what water and moisture was flowing under the foundation walls and releasing water vapor into the crawlspace. After seeing this, Josh worked the homeowner into the schedule for installation quickly so that she wouldn't need to deal with this foul smell for much longer. Our installation team came out to the home in just 1 day and they used a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier along with drain matting to help keep water down and out of the crawlspace. The homeowner was so happy with her newly refreshed home and she can't wait to use her space as storage too. Check out her crawlspace transformation!

Shelly is a proud homeowner and noticed a musty smell in her bedroom.  Since we were there looking at her garage wall, we also conducted a thorough inspection.

Our System Design Specialist, Zach, was able to identify the reason for the smell was due to high humidity and lots of mold in her crawlspace.  We were able to transform her space with full encapsulation and added our SaniDry humidifier.  This brightened up the space, removed the smell, and she can comfortably use it for storage.
