Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Paul and Lisa S. of Annandale, MN had dirty, musty and moldy crawl space that needed to be inspected. They called American Waterworks to schedule a FREE Estimate, so we sent out our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson. After an in-depth inspection, Paul and Lisa were confident with the proposal, so they got an installation date scheduled. 

Our Foreman, Cory Sather, and his production team began the crawl space waterproofing project by removing anything that was in the way. They installed 775 feet of our TerraBlock, which serves as a puncture-resistant insulation and provides the ultimate moisture protection. Next, Cory and his team applied 425 feet of our CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier on top of the TerraBlock, which prevents mold and humidity, and it gives the space a clean and bright appearance. Paul and Lisa were both glad we were able to restore their peace of mind! 

A homeowner in Rockford, IA, knew it was almost time for their annual service appointment. To confirm their appointment, the homeowner contacted our Service team. Our service team confirmed the appointment and shared that one of our Service Technicians, Braden, would be attending the appointment. A few weeks later, the appointment date arrived and Braden traveled to the home to begin. During his inspection, Braden checked to make sure all of the products were working correctly. While inspecting the crawl space, he noticed signs of water intrusion. To prevent the water intrusion from continuing, he recommended installing CleanSpace throughout the crawl space. Knowing this was their best option, the homeowner decided to go ahead with his proposal. Next, Braden passed the proposal to our Logistics team to approve and finalized the plans. Our Logistics team gave the final stamp of approval, then scheduled the project for the following weeks. Once the project date arrived, our Foreman, Matt, and his crew traveled to the home to encapsulate the crawl space. First, Matt and his crew installed Drainage Matting on the floors. Once the Drainage Matting was secured, they shifted their focus to installing CleanSpace on top of the Drainage Matting. Once all the products were secured, the crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to repair its customers' damaged crawl spaces. 

A homeowner from Staples, MN was beginning to notice a musty odor originating from her crawl space beneath her home. Not wanting the issue to worsen, she decided to call American Waterworks and take advantage of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Ian, headed out to the home. 

After Ian completed his thorough inspection, he informed the homeowner that she was experiencing odors because of water damage in the crawl space. He told the homeowner that crawl spaces are notorious for taking on unwanted water, completely unannounced to homeowners because crawl spaces are so hard to access and maintain. He went on to say that American Waterworks could offer a solution to this issue, by installing our crawl space vapor barrier and drainage matting. Ian explained that these two products work hand in hand to catch water entering the space through cracks or porous holes in the foundation, draining it to the appropriate disposal site. The homeowner agreed and work was scheduled for a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Kingsley, and his team ended up installing 84 ft of CleanSpace and another 84 ft of draining mating. Now that the crawl space is properly sealed, our homeowner can enjoy an odor-free home!

Chris in New Prague, MN had a dirt crawl space and he was interested in having a vapor barrier installed to save costs on his energy because he knew that he was losing heat through that space. He also was tired of the musty smell that was coming from his crawl space so, he contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate. One of our Design Specialists, Dylan Woitas, went onsite to inspect his crawl space and create a solution. Dylan developed a thorough solution to solve Chris’ crawl space problems. Chris was pleased with the proposal, so he scheduled the installation.

Our production team installed drainage matting, CleanSpace vapor barrier, Foamax walls and our spray foam rim joist insulation. The combination of these crawl space encapsulation products made Chris’ crawl space a dry, clean, and energy efficient space.

Donna S. in New Prague, MN contacted American Waterworks after seeing our advertisement in the newspaper. She was concerned about the water that was leaking through cracks into her basement, and she wanted someone to look at her crawl space. She met with one of our Design Specialists, Ryan Powell, who assured her that we could permanently waterproof her basement with our WaterGuard and TripleSafe waterproofing system. 

Our Foreman, Jesus Covarrubias, and his production crew began the project by removing the concrete around the perimeter of the basement and installing our WaterGuard drainage system and recommended TripleSafe sump pump. Water is now guided through the WaterGuard to the sump pump, and from there is expelled from the home. Next, they removed debris from the crawl space and laid the drainage matting. Then, they completed the project by encapsulating the crawl space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier to protect the space from moisture, mold, and pests. Donna was happy with the results, and glad she can enjoy a dry, clean basement and crawl space!
