When we initially inspected the crawl space area, it was very muddy. One of the other major concerns were the uninsulated exterior walls.
In order to address both of these concerns we recommended not just a complete system, but 2" foam board along the exterior walls with 3" closed cell foam along the top with top tape.
Once the trenches were properly routed, it didn't take long for the pump to do it's job. Now the space is healthier and conditioned.

Before we came to this home, we realized that the crawlspace floor was covered in mud because of the water table/ runoff. This visqueen was acting as a vapor barrier for the moisture inside of the crawl space, which began to grow mold. From there, the insulation became damaged and that was a perfect environment for rodents.
In order to fix this problem, we installed a complete crawlspace encapsulation system. This included our patented CleanSpace vapor barrier and a sump pump to make sure any moisture that tries to get in will get pumped out. Now this crawlspace will be clean, moisture free, and rodent free.

This 2nd story home had structural damage in the attic due to the stack affect - moisturre evaporating from the damp exposed earth in the crawlspace migrating up through the house as heat rises - moisture condensated on the cold surfaces of the attic and warped the wood soffits - caught just in time before mold was able to grow in the attic. Unfortunatelly the same could not be said about the crawlspace - We had to remove the isulation to efficiently clean the mold from the perimeter rim joists, sill plates, subfloor, & floor joists. After drying out these structural components we applied an EPA registered fungicidal coating to help protect from future mold growth. We also insulated the walls and installed a CleanSpace Encapsualtion System.

This house was one of the original homes in Vail Colorado. It tested high in Radon by a certified radon specialist. We were chosen to install our 20 mil cord reinforced CleanSpace Encapsulation System and air seal the perimeter rim assembly from outside air entering and the void at the tops of the concrete block foundation walls where radon could travel through and enter the home. We worked together with a local certified Radon company to create an active Radon reduction system.
After searching Google, a customer decided to reach out to us. We made an appointment at their convenience to inspect the crawl areas. We discovered what the customer suspected all along, evidence of rodent and pest intrusion. We were able to remedy the situation with a thorough cleanup accompanied by our encapsulation system. The system includes using closed-cell foam to fill any open or exposed areas around the perimeter inside the home's crawl space. These steps effectively encapsulated the area, not only providing a relatively moisture-less environment but also protecting the home from future pest intrusions.
