We recently helped Brunswick, Maine homeowners repair their damp and dirt floor basement. We encapsulated the space with CleanSpace vapor barrier, a liner that seal out moisture and prevents mold growth. Spray Foam insulation was installed on the walls to help seal the CleanSpace liner, as well as improve the energy efficiency of the home. The owners now enjoy a dry, usable space without the worry of moisture problems.
Homeowners in Brunswick, Maine had water seeping in from their foundation walls and they wanted help keeping the basement dry. We installed CleanSpace Wall System, which is a vapor barrier liner that gets installed on the wall to seal out moisture. We also installed WaterGuard perimeter drainage system, which captures any water coming in from the walls behind the CleanSpace vapor barrier. WaterGuard connects to their TripleSafe sump pump so that water will get pumped away from the home.
Living with a regularly damp and rather unpleasant crawlspace below their home, this homeowner began to look into how they could resolve this issue. After consulting our team, they were setup with a full vapor barrier to clear the crawlspace of moisture and keep out future leaks. Now without any moisture to sustain itself, any musty smells due to mold growth will soon dissipate, leaving the homeowner with dry, healthy air in their home.
We helped improve an Orrs Island, Maine crawl space with our two-step encapsulation system. The crawl space had unsealed stone foundation walls, high moisture levels, and the homeowners wanted to add insulation. We first installed drainage matting on the floor to control groundwater. CleanSpace vapor barrier liner was installed on top of that, providing an encapsulated area that prevents mold growth and seals moisture out. Finally, Spray Foam insulation was installed on the walls and rim joists to add an air tight seal, immediately improving energy efficiency for the home.
