Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner contacted DBS after purchasing a house and wanted to ensure that their crawlspace was a dry and stable place for storage. During an inspection, our Design Specialist, Henrik Makitalo, found a crack in the foundation wall, and he suggested the installation of 3 push piers to stabilize and lift the foundation wall. He also recommended a fully insulated and waterproofed crawlspace and the installation of a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier to keep the area dry and clean.

After the homeowner agreed to the plan, the crew, led by Foreman Jared Peterson, arrived and started by clearing out the space and installing the 3 push piers to lift the foundation. They then sprayed the walls and rim joists with a spray foam system to insulate the area and prevent air leaks. Once the spray foam was installed, the CleanSpace™ Wall System was set up to direct water to the sump pump and prevent mold and mildew growth. Finally, the TripleSafe™ sump pump and dehumidifier were installed to ensure that the crawlspace remains dry at all times. The homeowner was very pleased with the final result and now has a dry and stable crawlspace for additional storage.
