Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Arlington, VA had a crawlspace that had old, moldy, non-effective insulation in it. The team at 3 Pros Basement Systems transformed the crawlspace using our CleanSpace encapsulation system. This system keeps the crawlspace healthy, warm, dry, and critter free. 

One of the most important steps in any crawl space projects, is the last step.  That step is closing the door or access point to the crawl space to keep it sealed off and safe from outdoor air and temperatures.  Closing off vents and covering the walls of a crawl space is almost useless if the door or access point to the crawl space isnt properly sealed and continues to allow dust, allergens and moisture to come inside.  We offer this great Everlast Door as a solution.  Here we replaced an old, dry rotting wooden door that has clear signs of many tears of weather exposure, for an Everlast Door made from long lasting materials that will not rust, rot or decay.  With multiple latching points, the Everlast Door helps create the tightest seal possible.  

A crawl space in Fort Myer, VA was waterproofed and insulated, preparing it for the winter months ahead.

This work in progress has already shown a massive visual change.  The owner of this Alexandria Virginia home had called us to help with cold floors and a musty smell coming from their crawl space.  Upon inspection, our Certified Home Performance Sales Pro Jason found the insulation inside to be falling and old.  There was excessive moisture in the space due to the extra water that wasnt making its way to the sump pump.  Our team was able to remove all of the old insulation and will be lining the ground with Clean Space after they finish using Silver Glo insulation panels to cover the walls and insulate from the outside in, rather than just below the floors above.  

This Alexandria VA crawl space had been partially conditioned with material installed to cover the dirt flooring and walls, but the insulation for the space was not done correctly.  The walls and rim joists in the crawl space were left uninsulated while traditional bat insulation was used to "TRY" and insulate the floors above the crawl space.  The bat insulation allowed for cold and or hot, unconditioned air from the crawl space to impact the floors above.  The outside temperatures and moisture were able to freely impact the crawl space due to open air vents and no insulation for the walls.  We removed the bat insulation and some of the wall coverings and proceeded to use spray foam to seal the air vents, rim joists and to insulate the walls.  No more free moving outside air causing humidity and we conditions in the crawl space.
