Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This crawl space in South Thomaston, ME, was encapsulated using CleanSpace with Drainage Matting to keep out the elements.

CleanSpace™ is a heavy 20 mil-thick-liner, similar to a pool liner. It is manufactured in 7 layers, a blend of high density polyethylene for puncture resistance, low density polyethylene for flexibility, and polyester cord reinforcement for brute tear resistance. The white finish really brightens your crawl space is free of mold, insects and dirt. The CleanSpace™ is manufactured with an antimicrobial additive called "UltraFresh", molded right into the material.

When the floor above their crawlspace started to droop due to moisture build up and potential rot in the supports, this Belfast, ME homeowner called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to receive a free estimate on the cost of repairs. Shortly after their meeting with our sales representative, the homeowner hired us to get started on a waterproofing solution for the crawlspace. When our installation crew arrived at the home their first objective was to replace the old failing supports with new SmartJack pylons. These adjustable supports will enable our team to relevel the floor above the crawlspace. Next, a Drainage Matting & CleanSpace liner were utilized to encapsulate the crawlspace with a proper vapor barrier. The Drainage Matting rests below the CleanSpace, creating channels for blocked water to travel toward where it can most easily drain back into the earth. The CleanSpace covers the flood and walls of the Crawlspace with a thin layer to lock out any leaking moisture that would otherwise accumulate within the space.

With a complete vapor barrier as well as new supports in their crawlspace, this homeowner will no longer be troubled by moisture problems below their home. This barrier will maintain a dry crawlspace interior for many years into the future!

Before TC Hafford Basement Systems got to this home, the crawl space was dirty, damp, leaky, and gross. As most crawl spaces are. The space was hard to access, it wasn't pleasant to walk through, water was settling in areas causing odors and risk of mold. These homeowners knew it was important to consider the air qualiy in their crawl space, as that's the air their family breathes in the rest of the home. 

A System Design Specialist visited the home and inspected the space. Working with the homeowner, they were able to design a system custom for this space that will keep it dry and neat. Our production crew went out and did a great job transforming this space into a safe, dry, odorless, usable area. We installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, which directed water into the new sump pump in the crawl space. CleanSpace and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier were also installed in the Crawl Space. 

After consulting a contractor, this homeowner called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to have their musty crawlspace protected by a vapor barrier installation. When our crew arrived at the Glenburn, ME home, they got started by laying a Drainage Matting across the leveled floor of the crawlspace. Next, the support piers received Pier Wrapping and the entire space was encapsulated by a CleanSpace liner. This covered the crawlspace with a water-tight seal that would prevent future moisture build up in the atmosphere below this home. Finally, gaps in the joists above the crawlspace were filled in Spray Foam insulation, to allow the homeowner more efficiency when heating or cooling their home.

With these new installations put in below their home, this homeowner will no longer suffer from musty air emanating from their crawlspace. The CleanSpace liner will ensure this crawlspace remains moisture-free for years down the road.

With a dirt-floor crawlspace below their home, this Winter Harbor, ME homeowner had been experiencing moisture leaking through their floor into their home. To put an end to this leakage, they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we got to work providing a proper barrier to keep the moisture at bay. A moisture barrier consisting of a Drainage Matting covered by a CleanSpace liner encapsulation was installed in the crawlspace to prevent outside water from entering the interior of the space. Next, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier and Condensate Pump were put in place atop the new barrier to collect and remove any moisture lingering in the atmosphere of the crawlspace.

With the new CleanSpace barrier and SaniDry installed properly, this crawlspace and home will remain dry and healthy for years to come!
