Before & After Photos

These homeowner were struggling with a bad smell that had somehow seeped into their home. They knew from a previous home's problem that the crawl space would be a potential cause of this, and in their old home, they used our services, so they gave us a call again to check out their new crawl space. 

We sent Service Technician Matt Stice to inspect the crawl space and determine what happened to cause this smell. Matt found that the crawl space was quite dirty, musty, and that the rim joists were not properly insulated. After discussing options with the homeowners, they decided to choose Thrasher to complete their project. Matt and his team encapsulated the crawl space CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier and they utilized a TripleSafe Sump Pump to keep the crawlspace free of water. They also insulated the rim joists with SilverGlo and added a Sedona Dehumidifier to improve the air quality and decrease the humidity of the crawl space.

The homeowners were shocked at the transformation that happened in their home. They were more comfortable in their home because there is no longer a smell. Check out their crawl space transformation!

Crawl spaces left unattended can slowly deteriorate.  Mold growth, bug and spider infestation, moisture, and odors develop and increase over time. 

Cleaning up and fully encapulating the crawl space is the safest and healthiest way to not only improve the space itself, but to improve the air quality in the rooms and floors above.

Nasty crawlspaces are becoming an epidemic in the US. Mold, humidity, bugs, and odors come into the main living spaces through the crawl space. With a crawlspace overhaul and repair you can turn a nasty crawlspace into a clean and healthy environment. The encapsulating process can turn an old, smelly crawlspace into a revitalized area of the home and in most cases additional storage as well.

Dave noticed he had water in his crawl space and wanted to have his crawl space become a storage space for his wife to use. He didn't know who to call but then saw a commercial on the television showing him what we can do. He called and had one of our System Designers come out to his house to give him a free quote. The System Designer told Dave that we would have to encapsulate his crawl space which means we would put vent covers which would stop the cold from coming in. Second we would remove all the standing water that would be left in the crawl space. Then, we would repair the structure and finally encapsulate the crawl space. Dave was very happy with the work that was done and his wife was happy that she got to put her things in the area. 

James and Lynnece M. wanted to use their basement during the summer months but noticed a damp smell and water staining the walls.

As returning customers, they were excited to have us come back to their home. System Design Specialist, Calogeno Principato was able to identify multiple spots along the floors and walls where water was entering.

We directed the water down the walls behind our CleanSpace to our WaterGuard around the perimeter of their basement eventually dumping into our TripleSafe Pump System. Then we completely encapsulated the walls eliminating water vapor from evaporating into the air. This project used full height CleanSpace which added a lot of light reflecting surfaces which really brightened up the entire room!
