Before & After Photos

A home owner in Arden, Delaware had a major issue with his crawl space. When the storm (Hurricane Sandy) hit, the crawl space flooded and the water caused major damage. DryZone came out to help repair and fix up the homeowner's crawl space. DryZone placed brand new vapor barrier liner, and also installed a new sump pump and crawl space dehumidifier.

This crawlspace opening had an old rusted door. DryZone replaced it with an Everlast crawlspace door. The new door will not warp or rot or rust.

This time of year people are always telling us that their floors are cold. They think that cranking the heat up is the only way to make things better. Then the electric bill comes and they get upset all over again. SilverGlo crawlspace insulation is a great and efficient way to correct this problem. Stopping the cold air from entering the crawlspace to begin with will warm the floors quite nicely.

Ocean Pines is a pretty large community on the Eastern Shore of MD. DryZone is frequently doing work on homes there. This home is pretty typical of what we see in that area. Its got a bare dirt floor which is mostly sand, falling insulation, and a musty smell. A lot of the homes in Ocean Pines are 2nd homes or weekend beach homes, so they aren't opened up everyday like a lived in residence. This causes a nasty smell to linger inside the home if the crawlspace is musty and stinky. Once we install our crawlspace vapor barrier and other crawlspace moisture control elements, the smells go away and the home is fresh and pleasant to the nose. In this particular home, the owners decided to pull the insulation out after we left to save a little money.

Most people think that a dehumidifier is all they need to lower the humidity in their crawlspace. While it will help, its not the only thing needed. Think about it...if a dehumidifier solved all your crawlspace problems, why would we use anything else? Here you can see a pretty standard household dehumidifier vs. our SaniDry air system. Regular dehumidifiers can remove 70-90 pints of water or moisture from the air, our SaniDry CX model can remove up to 109 pints. The SaniDry also removes airborne particles like mold, mildew, and other allergens from the air. With a SaniDry you are not only getting a great dehumidifier, you are also getting an air scrubber all in the same unit.
