This homes crawlspace was difficult to maneuver. its old fiberglass insulation was hanging low and in tatters.

The homeowners opted to do our crawlspace encapsulation to ensure this space remains dry and healthy.
When a family member has asthma, air quality becomes a big concern. This family had worked to create a healthy space in their home, but knew to truly make the space healthier they needed some below grade work. Their crawlspace needed a new vapor barrier every two years as humidity issues would seep through and cause mold growth to occur. While they were on top of treating this, it was a lot of upkeep. To find a long term solution they reached out to John's Waterproofing. We did a full encapsulation, radon mitigation, and the homeowners purchased an Aspen air purifier. Even though the project was only completed a few weeks ago, they have called to say they can already tell that the new system has made a positive change!
This homeowner had their crawlspace encapsulated, and to help the job suit their homes needs, they opted to have the space air sealed instead of applying spray foam to the entirety of the foundation walls. Air sealing keeps critters and bugs from creeping into the space, and keeps water and cool drafts from entering the space.
This home's old insulation was a mess, it was damp and drooping. The home's heating and cooling costs kept going up. To address these issues, the homeowners called up John's Waterproofing.

This includes TerraBlock insulation along the dirt floor, SilverGlo along the walls, and Spray From to air seal and insulate the foundation between joists.
