Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Cliff and Megan in Vienna, Virginia started noticing higher humidity in their home along with a light musty smell that wouldn’t go away. After some heavy rains, they suspected moisture might be building up in the crawl space and reached out to our team to schedule a FREE inspection. Our system designer evaluated the space and found ground moisture, poor drainage, and no proper barrier to protect the home from humidity.

After reviewing the proposal, Cliff and Megan decided to move forward with the work. Our crew installed an EZ Flow drainage system to direct water out of the crawl space, along with a SuperSump system to safely discharge any incoming water. We then sealed the area with a CleanSpace vapor barrier and added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity.

Now, the crawl space is dry and sealed. Cliff and Megan can enjoy lower humidity, no musty odors, and a more comfortable living space.
