Solving the Musty Smell of a Crawl Space

This Livermore Falls, ME, homeowner had been dealing with a musty smell coming from their crawl space. Moisture and high humidity in a crawl space can not only lead to musty smells, but mold and mildew growth can be dangerous to breathe in. The homeowner needed help, so they called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate. The crawl space needed to be encapsulated to keep moisture and critters out, so CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was installed. Drainage Matting gets laid on the ground first to protect the CleanSpace and create a channel for groundwater to flow to a sump pump. CleanSpace is a durable vapor barrier that is attached to the walls and creates an inorganic barrier between the outside elements and the interior of the crawl space. Keeping moisture out prevents musty smells, and the homeowner no longer has to worry about damage being caused in their crawl space.

Farmington, ME, Crawl Space Encapsulation.

When a homeowner in Farmington, Maine, reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems, their crawl space was in desperate need of attention. Standing only about four feet high, the area had a dirt floor and excessive moisture, creating an uncomfortable and potentially damaging environment for the home. The homeowner was concerned about the long-term effects of the damp conditions and wanted an estimate for encapsulation.

 

 

After assessing the situation, our team determined that the best course of action would be to install a CleanSpace liner along with drainage matting to effectively control moisture. We also recommended a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to maintain optimal humidity levels, along with spray foam insulation for added protection. The transformation was dramatic, turning the wet and unusable crawl space into a dry, clean, and energy-efficient area. The homeowner was extremely satisfied with the quality of work and the lasting benefits to their home.

Freeport, ME Basement Fix with CleanSpace Wall System

A Freeport, ME homeowner contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to fix their basement water issues. System Design Specialist Michael M. met with the owner and created a plan to keep their whole basement dry and usable space.

 

We installed CleanSpace Wall System as a vapor barrier, and to channel any moisture to the WaterGuard. CleanSpace Wall System is bright white, easy to clean, and will never discolor. WaterGuard is installed along the perimeter of the basement to funnel water to the brand new SuperSump Plus pump. The SuperSump removes water through an exterior discharge line away from the home. Lastly, we installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control the humidity and moisture in the space.

 

 

CleanSpace Barrier Protects Bowdoin, ME Crawlspace from Lingering Moisture

Having recently removed some of the insulation below their home due to mold growth from moisture build up, this Bowdoin, ME homeowner was in the market for a proper vapor barrier. They contacted our office at TC Hafford Basement Systems and after they received their free estimate, the homeowner gave us the go-ahead to begin work on solving their moisture problem. As soon as our installation crew arrived at the home, their first task was laying a Drainage Matting across the dirt floor of the crawlspace. This mat rests just above the surface of the floor, creating channels for any blocked moisture to funnel toward the natural low point of the crawlspace where it can most easily drain back into the earth. Next, a CleanSpace liner was utilized to encapsulate the interior of the crawlspace. This bright white liner will completely lock out moisture leaking into the crawlspace, keeping the space dry while any blocked water flows through the Drainage Matting to exit back into the ground it entered through. This forms a complete vapor barrier to prevent moisture damage and mold from taking root below this home in the future.

This homeowner can now rest assured their crawlspace will remain dry throughout the year, keeping their home safe from water related damages. The CleanSpace barrier will hold back any leaking moisture for many years to come!

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.
