Just because your home was built with a dirt crawl space does not make it any less of a hazard to the entire structure. Whether or not you see signs of groundwater leakage, earth water vapor will still evaporate and move up into the home, causing rotting floor joists, mold growth, health issues, and more.
How do we at Northland Basement Systems fix this issue? Simple, we isolate the crawl space from the rest of the home with the CleanSpace® vapor barrier, which stops water intrusion, prevents moisture seepage, air seals, and more. As an added benefit, the CleanSpace® vapor barrier also transforms your nasty, wet crawl space into a clean and secure storage space!
Customer had high moisture in crawl space. We encapsulated and insulated the space, sealing off outside air, then installed a crawl space air machine to condition the space.
A crawl space that’s damp and dirty is more than just an eyesore. It causes health, safety, comfort and home resale problems. This happens because a damp, dirty crawl space creates a favorable environment for mold, mildew, wood rot, insects and animal pests. Who wants these difficulties right below a home’s living space?
The good news is that a nasty crawl space can be transformed into a clean, dry, attractive and energy efficient space using the CleanSpace® encapsulation system.
