Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

These Hingham homeowners were concerned about the condition of their crawlspace. There was a dirt floor and it was not insulated properly. The customer was experiencing cold drafts in the winter and was looking for a way to lower their energy costs. DryZone Basement Systems came up with the solution of installing a vapor barrier, drainage mat and dehumidifer in the crawl area. 

The crawl space in Hingham, MA was not insulated properly and had mold and moisture issues. Before moving into the property the home owner wanted to take care of the problem. They had a free estimate with DryZone and met with our system design specialist Patrick Cahill. 

The room above this crawl space in Hingham, MA was always colder than the other rooms in the house. They started insulating the floor but after researching and coming across our website, they saw that doesn’t always solve the issue. Our SilverGlo insulates the crawl space so cold air in the winter doesn’t penetrate the space and allow chilly air into the home. The CleanSpace helps seal any moisture and pests out so this space can be used as storage in the future!

A homeowner in Hingham, MA reached out to us because their crawl space has had a musty smell since the day they moved in, which was now almost 16 years ago, so they decided it was finally time to do something about it. One of our inspectors, Trevor, was happy to draw up a solution to rid the space of the musty smell. On installation day, foreman Carlos and his crew showed up ready to encapsulate the crawl space. They started by removing any debris that wasn't needed in the space and then laid down the drainage matting over the dirt floor. Along the crawl space walls, the crew installed our SilverGlo insulation which is very effective in regulating the crawl space's temperature. With the drainage matting and SilverGlo in place, the crew was then ready to encapsulate with our CleanSpace vapor barrier. The CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System seals off the space from being negatively impacted by water and other outside factors. Finally, the crew set up our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier in the space to keep humidity low. With the crawl space encapsulated and SaniDry Sedona running, the space no longer has that musty smell and the rest of the house is happier and healthier for it!

The home owner was in the process of the selling their home and wanted to take care of a reoccurring leak and dampness so the next home owner did not have to worry about the problem. After doing some research online the customer called DryZone Basement Systems and set up a free estimate. Our system design specialist Derek Rice proposed CleanSpace vapor barrier and a SmartSump to help in the problem area of the basement.
