Before & After Photos

A crawlspace in Swansea, Illinois, needed to be encapsulated. The homeowners were concerned that humidity and cool air from the unsealed crawlspace were seeping up into the home. Woods came out and installed the CleanSpace System to address the issue. This system consists of a highly durable sheet of material that is placed directly on the walls and ground of the crawlspace. Not only does this help with the humidity, but this seal will also protect the crawlspace from rot, insects, and the outside elements. In addition to this, CleanSpace also brightens up the crawlspace, reflecting any available light back inwards. With this installation in place, this crawlspace will be sealed and protected for many years to come.

Cassandra L is having some problems in her home that are originating from the crawlspace. The floors are sloping, which is caused by the support beams in the crawlspace failing. There is also water and a musty smell in the crawlspace.

James L and his crew installed a CleanSpace Liner in the crawlspace. This will separate the space from the earth, and prevent water vapor from entering, keeping the space clean and dry. SmartJacks were also installed, to support the crawlspace and to fix the sloping floors in the house. Cassandra can now relax knowing that her crawlspace is clean, dry, and stable!

Charles and Marcia C. of Alton, Illinois were distraught by their wet, musty basement. The water leaking into their basement caused mold. Adam R., system design specialist designed a solution to keep the basement dry and the mold away.

Foreman Juan H. installed the CleanSpace wall system. CleanSpace is an inorganic vapor barrier that prevents water from escaping into the basement. Because it is inorganic, CleanSpace does not support mold growth. Charles and Marcia's basement is now dry and mold-free.

The crawl space of Peter B.’s Alton, IL home was very wet. The plastic liner that he had along the floors was flimsy and did little to keep moisture out. He couldn’t use the space for storage without worries of water damage so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods recommended encapsulating the crawl space.

Woods secured CleanSpace over the foundation walls and dirt floors of the crawl space. CleanSpace is a very thick and durable plastic moisture barrier that prevents water from entering the space through the walls and floors, instead directing it down to the perimeter drainage system. It’s mold resistant and its bright white color helps to maximize the available light within the crawl space.

Peter B. of Alton, IL thought he’d taken care of the water problem in his crawl space. He’d had a sump pump installed but was still getting leaks. The sump pump was filled with mud and no longer working so he called Woods Basement Systems. Woods found the best solution would be an encapsulation system including a new pump.

Woods replaced the old pump with the SmartSump. The SmartSump collects intruding water from the drainage system and ejects it safely away from the crawl space through its discharge lines. It contains a powerful cast-iron pump within its sump liner. The sump liner features an airtight lid that is designed to work perfectly with the rest of the encapsulation system and has the WaterWatch alarm system built in to warm homeowners of potential plumbing leaks.
