Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This moldy and damp crawl space was in big trouble. Our crew removed the mold and installed a CleanSpace encapsulation system so that moisture, humidity, mold, and musty odors would never be a threat to this home again.

In Elon, NC, we responded to a call from a 91-year-old homeowner who was experiencing persistent coughing and sneezing due to dust entering the living space from the crawl space. The exposed soil, torn vapor barrier, and years of buildup were contributing to poor air quality throughout the home. Concerned for her health, the homeowner requested a long-term solution to create a cleaner, healthier environment.

To address the issue, our team performed a full crawl space encapsulation, sealing the area with a durable vapor barrier to prevent moisture, allergens, and dust from rising into the home. As a key part of the solution, we installed the SaniDry Sedona, a powerful, energy-efficient dehumidifier designed specifically for crawl spaces. This system controls humidity levels, filters the air, and helps eliminate conditions that lead to mold and respiratory irritation.

The result is a fully protected crawl space that dramatically improves air quality, reduces allergens, and supports the well-being of the homeowner. This project not only made the space cleaner and safer but also brought peace of mind to a homeowner who can now breathe easier in her own home.

We replaced the customer's crawl space door with our EverLast door to provide a more durable, energy-efficient, and aesthetically pleasing solution. The EverLast door is designed to resist moisture, pests, and weather damage, ensuring long-term reliability and improved insulation for the crawl space.

Sealing crawl space vents helps prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and pest infestations. It also improves energy efficiency by reducing drafts and maintaining consistent temperatures in the home.

This Burlington, NC homeowner was experiencing serious crawlspace humidity concerns, with moisture levels reaching 74% RH even after sealing vents with fiberboard and running a 100-pint dehumidifier continuously since last summer. Excess moisture in the crawlspace was causing condensation to form on the HVAC unit and ductwork, leading to water dripping onto the existing ground liner.

To create a healthier and more energy-efficient crawlspace, the area was fully encapsulated with a durable vapor barrier system to help control moisture intrusion and improve overall air quality beneath the home. The transformation created a cleaner, brighter, and more protected crawlspace environment while helping reduce strain on the homeowner’s dehumidification system and HVAC components.
