Rodents had chewed through the open vents, making this homeowners crawlspace a big nest full of pine needles and pine cones. We bagged & disposed of all the debris, unfortunately the rodents had destroyed all of the personal belongings the homeowner had stored there. Then we screwed wooden blocks over the vents, sealing them with copper wire mesh and spray foam. We also encapsulated the floor to the face of the footings, and added wall insulation. This is now a clean, warm, & bright storage space!
Remediating the mold & rodent infestation & installing a CleanSpace Crawlspace Encapsulation System to isolate the dust from the earth made all the difference for the entire health of this home. After a local HVAC company cleaned the ducts - the forced air heating system is pushing clean dry air throughout the house instead of moldy/rodent/dusty laced air from the crawlspace - Good Call!
Step 1 Professionally remediate mold from wooden structural elements.
Step 2 Apply EPA registered fungicidal coating to affected wooden structural elements.
Step 3 Encapsulate crawlspace with 20 mil cord reinforced liner - fastened and sealed.
Step 4 Enjoy a dry, mold free, healthy home!
This crawlspace needed rodent remediation, earth preparation, & CleanSpace liner installed to create that extra "Clean Space" for storage. Looks Good!
We installed a perimeter drainage system to daylight by drilling a hole through the concrete to the exterior. Sometimes we can get away with doing this instead of installing a sump pump if the foundation is on a slope and we can use gravity to our advantage. This saves money on maintenance and replacing sump pumps. It is also less likely to fail and have water back up into your crawlspace. We excavated under the center girder and installed the CleanSpace Crawlspace Encapsulation system to shut down any evaporation. Now this crawl is dry and the homeowners are worry free!
