The lack of a proper vapor barrier in this crawl space assisted in increasing the humidity and increasing the risk of mold growth. To start combatting the high humidity inside this crawl space, we Installed our patented CleanSpace vapor barrier designed for this challenge.
The problems that this thin black plastic created inside of this crawl space is very commonplace. This barrier rips easily and provides little resistance against water vapor. So, we installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier, that is durable and designed for crawl spaces, along with our SaniDry dehumidifying air system.
Water intrusion started to creep into this basement, and our interior waterproofing system was able to handle it quickly and smoothly.
When water seepage began to get into the basement walls it was rotting the finished work from behind. We tore off the infected areas and installed our perimeter waterproofing system to keep the basement dry moving forward.
The back yard of this property flooded very quickly during rainstorms. The land had worn down where the runoff would pool up. We installed a French drain and downspout system that will collect and soak up the water from the back yard and sent it further away from the home.
