Arcadia, MI Crawl Space Says Goodbye to Mold

This moldy, debris filled crawl space in Arcadia, MI needed some major work, but was nothing Ayers couldn't handle.

First, the crew worked to remove all debris and organic material from the basement. With that out of the way, they could start the mold removal process. By encapsulating the mold with Mold-X, it was neturalized and stopped from continuing to spread in the crawl space. Combined with CleanSpace, the mold would go dormant. CleanSpace is a white liner, shown in the after picture, that acts as a vapor barrier to keep moisture out of the crawl space. It is durable and mold resistant, and the final step for this crawl space. With that installed around the walls and piers, the crawl space was offically mold and moisture free!

CleanSpace Liner Makes Home Safe for Purchase in Arcadia, MI

When this cottage was up for purchase after years of vacancy, the buyer noticed that the crawl space would need a lot of work before it was ready for use. The biggest concern for the buyer was the layer of fungus that covered the crawl space floor in the before photo. After the crew first used Mold-X to control the fungi and mold that was already present in the crawl space, they began the installation of a vapor barrier to make sure that the problem never happened again. The CleanSpace barrier in the after photo was installed tight to both the ground and walls. Impenetrable by both moisture or humidity, the CleanSpace liner keeps out the main ingredients to mold and fungus. With the CleanSpace system installed, this home is all set for occupancy. 

Encapsulating Crawl Spaces in Arcadia, MI

John and Nancy want to better insulate their crawl space and give it a clean finish. So they called our team about encapsulation options and we installed CleanSpace. CleanSpace is a plastic sheet material used as a vapor barrier to restrict all moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space. Not only does this system create an energy-efficient crawl space, but it also gives your crawl space a clean finish. This material will be applied to your floors and walls to create a sleek look and an uninterrupted barrier.

Arcadia Crawl Space Encapsulation

Nell had a moisture issue in her crawl space that she wanted fixed to protect the home. To get rid of the moisture and keep the home safe we installed Drainage Matting, CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, SmartSump, and the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. Drainage Matting has raised dimples in it which direct the water to the sump pump to be dispelled outside the home. CleanSpace is a thick liner that prevents water vapor, pests, and humidity from entering into the space. The SmartSump is a sump pump designed for a crawl space and protects from leaks or floods. The SaniDry has a small size, perfect for the crawl space, and keeps the area dry.

Installing a Vapor Barrier in an Arcadia Crawl Space

Nell had some water and moisture in her crawl space that she would like to remove so her home is safe. We wanted to make sure her crawl space was dry to protect her home from mold, rot, and odors. We first used Drainage Matting to give water a channel to flow through and be sent to the sump pump. We then installed the CleanSpace Liner which is thick and durable. It keeps out pests, mold, water vapor, and humidity to keep the crawl space dry. Lastly to make sure the space was really dry, we installed the SaniDry Sedona which has a small size so it can easily fit into the area. It blows dry air throughout and filters the air making it the perfect addition to the crawl space encapsulation!
