Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Homeowners Daniel and Sharon Z. recently moved into their lake home. They noticed that the basement had high levels of humidity and were concerned with how this would affect their health and the home. The home’s crawl space was previously encapsulated by Thrasher, and they have worked with us in the past, so they felt confident that we could help them take control of the humidity.

Service Technician Daniel Hilkemann went out to their home. The home lacked a dehumidifier, and we installed a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to reduce the relative humidity in the crawl space and purify the air.  Daniel and Sharon were glad to have a peace of mind in knowing the crawl space would remain mold free and the new dehumidifier would keep the air clean.

Homeowner Mike is anticipating selling his home in a few years and wants to fix a few things. He noticed his floors were sagging and soft. He also noticed his walls and doors were cracking and sticking. After doing research, he realized his home might have a foundation problem. 

Thrasher came out to his home to inspect the problem. Sheldon Sharp, System Design Specialist, found the main beams in Mike's crawlspace were rotted and had settled over time, which explains why the floor was soft and the walls were pulling away from the ceiling.

He brought our install team to the site to work their magic. They installed three I-beam support sections and jacks to support and push up the floor, which will give them more stability.

Mike is happy with the results and loved how professional and communicative we were through the entire process. 

Look at this transformation! From dirty, musty crawlspace, to a clean, healthy crawlspace. For this project, System Design Specialist, Jeremey Scott, came out to help. This crawlspace was battling a multitude of issues from water, to humidity, and a nasty musty smell that was seeping into the home. To help with these issues, we installed CleanSpace, which is our encapsulation system that helps keeps moisture out and clean air in. This acts a barrier, so water and musty air do not cause harm to the health of the home. With the help of Jeremey and Thrasher, they do not have to worry about breathing in bad air any longer! They have the peace of mind they deserve. 

This homeowner was gifted this home from his father. He started to notice settlement on the back wall where the crawlspace was added and his floors were also sagging. He called Thrasher to come out and inspect. We found, upon inspection, that the add-on crawlspace was not supported sufficiently when it was built. The span from wall to wall was too wide and needed supports in the middle to help the slab not settle. 

To fix the issue, we used our I-beams to run the length of the crawlspace in smart jacks to support the beam so that the floor would not settle or sag.

The homeowner was very happy he doesn't have to concerned about that area and happy he can continue to live in the home that his father built.

To stabilize this settling sun deck, we installed a series of SmartJack support jacks along the perimeter of the structure. With the weight now evenly distributed, this deck can once more be enjoyed worry-free.
