Crawl Space Before Encapsulating
This crawl space was dirty, damp and drafty.
Crawl Space To CleanSpace
Now the space is waterproofed and insulated with SilverGlo, a 2 1/2 inch thick insulation impregnated with graphite. CleanSpace liners encapsulate the space while SmartDrain with WaterWatch alarm helps to keep the space dry.
Rusted Ol' Window
The window system and window well before are dirty and rusty. This window system barely lets in any natural light and does not function correctly.
Digging New Spaces
Before the team can install the new window system, the soil must be excavated to allow for work space and the new system.
Tiny Inside View
The view of the old window system from the inside.
Bigger
The team cuts out a space large enough to fit the bigger egress.
A Perfect Fit
The NEW egress fits perfectly.
StakWEL Installation (Inside View)
The StakWEL Meets all building code requirements and has a "Grip/Step" design incorporated in the StakWEL for easy exit in case of emergency.
StakWEL Installation (Outside View)
The white color of the new window well system instantly brightens the space way more than the dark, rusted well from before.
Complete Window System
A strong clear plastic dome is just the finishing touch to help keep debris, snow etc. out of the new system!

ZenWall and ThermalDry Tiles
ZenWall are inorganic panels that insulate and waterproof walls. ZenWall is also a simple way to create a dry, finished look to the space. ThermalDry tile flooring in sandstone are the all plastic, all inorganic flooring that will never be damaged by water or water vapor.
BrightWall Panels
BrightWall paneling stops water vapor and drains wall leaks behind it to the perimeter drainage system, WaterGuard.
