Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Trevett had seen our ads on a local TV station and decided it was time to take care of their wet crawlspace. The homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate. One of our System Design Specialists met with the homeowner to review their concerns and come up with a plan to prevent future issues.

CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was installed across the entire crawlspace. Drainage Matting is laid down first to elevate the CleanSpace and with its dimpled design, Drainage Matting helps to channel any groundwater to a sump. CleanSpace was installed and attached to the crawl space walls to encapsulate the area. CleanSpace is an inorganic and durable vapor barrier that keeps moisture and small critters out while turning the crawlspace into a perfect area for storage. We also installed a SuperSump Plus which pumps water out of the basement through an Exterior Buried Discharge line and takes the water far away from the home. The whole system is protected against ice buildup during winter with the installation of IceGuard on the Discharge line. This ensures that the system will always run, preventing flooding when snow melts. To finish out the waterproofing system, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was installed to keep the humidity in the crawlspace at a safe level, preventing musty smells and mold growth. Now the homeowner is happy that they have a dry, usable space!

This Vassalboro, ME crawl space had a dirt floor and was often damp, and the owners were ready to explore encapsulating the space. We installed our two-step encapsulation process, including a layer of drainage matting to control the groundwater, and our CleanSpace vapor barrier to seal out moisture. Crawl space encapsulation protects the structure of your home, as well as prevents odors and allergens like mold spores from making their way up into your home.

Homeowners in Southport, Maine reached out wanting to learn their options to waterproof and insulate the crawl space beneath their home. We recommended Spray Foam insulation for a few reasons - first, it expands as it is applied so it easily fills small gaps and cracks, creating an air tight seal. Spray Foam insulation is also water and mold resistant, making it a great option for crawl spaces. No more moldy and drooping fiberglass insulation! We also encapsulated the crawl space with drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier liner. A SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to control the humidity in the space, ensuring the air stays dry.

Before our team arrived, the homeowner in Southport, Maine, faced the challenge of a damp, dirt-floor crawl space. The space was prone to moisture issues, which could lead to problems like mold, poor air quality, and structural damage if left unaddressed. They knew it was time to take action. After assessing the situation, TC Hafford Basement Systems recommended installing the CleanSpace liner, drainage matting, and a SmartDrain. This system would effectively block moisture from entering while allowing any water to drain out safely.

The transformation was remarkable. What was once a vulnerable, exposed dirt crawl space is now fully encapsulated and protected from moisture. The homeowner was thrilled to have a dry, secure area under their home that will protect their property for years to come.

This Southport, Maine crawl space was once damp and humid, contributing to moisture issues throughout the structure of the home. By fully encapsulating the space with a durable CleanSpace vapor barrier, sealing it from ground moisture, and controlling humidity, we transformed it into a clean, dry, and healthier environment. The encapsulation helps protect the home’s structure, improves indoor air quality, and gives the homeowners peace of mind knowing moisture, mold, and musty odors are no longer a concern.
