Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Al H. of Bettendorf, IA called MidAmerica Basement Systems because he was concerned about toxic radon gas and water in his crawlspace. He met with design specialist Clayton Spinler, and then foreman Bill Wilcox and his team. Bill and his team encapsulated the crawlspace with CleanSpace Drainage Matting and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. The space looks great, and is protected from vapors, water, and odor. 

This damp, dark crawl space belongs to a homeowner in Bettendorf. The homeowner called the MidAmerica Basement Systems experts because they wanted a cleaner, dryer crawl space. The team installed drainage matting before encapsulating the crawl space. Drainage matting is great to allow water to flow easily to a local drain. CleanSpace was installed over the ground and up the walls to fully encapsulate the space. Then the team installed SmartDrain to drain away any leaks in the crawl space. The homeowners are thrilled with the cleanliness, dryness and brightness of their crawl space!  

Krissy was noticing an excessive amount of moisture in the air, but could not pinpoint the source of the issue. She reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems to have her basement looked at, and to her surprise, it was her wet crawlspace. The untreated area was allowing ground water to seep into the crawlspace, causing excessive moisture in the rest of her home. A SmartSump and CleanSpace encapsulation was offered to address the issue, preventing water from pooling in the crawlspace and sealing the rest of the home off from the moisture. SilverGlo insulation was also installed to provide the adequate insulation for the area.

Sam was having doubt about his untreated crawlspace, his basement always seemed to be muggy. When he reached out to MidAmerica Basement Systems, design specialist Chris offered him a total crawlspace encapsulation. To permanently seal off the space, CleanSpace Liner is installed along the walls and floor. The thick 20 mil material, similar to the thickness of a pool liner, provides a tear- and puncture-resistant membrane, completely sealing off the ground and moisture. CleanSpace Liner has a special antimicrobial additive in it to prevent mold growth, making it ideal in a damp environment. With a sealed-off crawlspace, Sam no longer has an issue with a muggy basement.
