Photo Album: Bringing Peace of Mind to a Beech Mountain, NC Home: Crawlspace Encapsulation & Support

After inheriting this home in Beech Mountain, NC, the homeowner was faced with a crawlspace in severe disrepair. Built directly on solid rock with no moisture control, the area contained exposed insulation, loose debris, unprotected ductwork, and makeshift wooden supports. The presence of a propane furnace and water heater in this environment raised serious concerns, especially with signs of mold in adjoining rooms and mildew odors in the living space above. To fully protect the home, a comprehensive crawlspace encapsulation and stabilization system was installed. The process began with clearing debris and installing a CleanSpace vapor barrier to isolate the home from the damp ground. SmartJack support posts were added to permanently stabilize sagging floors, addressing long-term structural concerns.   Once the crawlspace was sealed and supported, the final step was improving air quality and moisture control. A SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to regulate humidity and protect HVAC components from rust, mold, and moisture damage. Together, these upgrades transformed the crawlspace from a hazardous, unprotected zone into a clean, dry, and secure foundation giving the homeowner long-term peace of mind.
