One of our customers in Forest Grove OR had an unusable crawl space because of the dampness, falling insulation, and debris that had built up. Encapsulating your crawl space using the CleanSpace vapor barrier keeps your crawl space dry and usable for many many years.
The benefits of encapsulating your crawl space include moisture control keeps allergens out eliminates dust mites and provides you with clean air coming into your home. Did you know that half of the air on the first floor of your home comes from underneath your house? Encapsulate and breathe cleaner air.
This home had an old sump pump, but it couldn't handle the water leaks. Water leaked through in other spots of the basement and waterproof paint wasn't a long term solution. To solve the issue fully, they called up John's Waterproofing so the issue could be addressed fully and water issues would be a thing of the past.
We came out to this home and did a full cleanspace encapsulation system, taking this wet and nasty crawlspace and making it look good as new.
This Crawlspaces old sump pump had been a DIY tutorial job, and while it might have worked with a small amount of water, it was unable to withstand the water this home faced, causing it to overflow and cover the vapor barrier that was present. We upgraded this system with a perimeter perforated pipe system, a TripleSafe sump pump, and a new vapor barrier.
