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.
Our solution to this flooded crawl space was to install our StarPipe drainage system paired with a TripleSafe Sump Pump. With these two high-performance waterproofing products, water doesn't stand a chance in this crawl space!
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.
