A homeowner from Saint Paul, MN, had noticed that a section of the floor on the main level of his home was much colder than other areas of the floor. It occurred to the homeowner that the issue might be his crawl space beneath the home. He began to look for a crawl space repair company in MN and quickly found us. He was impressed with our previous work and scheduled his FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist was headed out to the home. When he arrived, he wasted no time getting down into the crawl space. When he finished, he was ready to make his recommendation. First, our Design Specialist recommended our CleanSpace, a 100% waterproof tarp-like material that gets installed directly to the walls of the crawl space. It works to collect the water entering through holes and cracks in the wall, keeping it off the crawl space floor. To compliment this product, our Design Specialist recommended our drainage matting, a dimpled matting that gets laid down on the floor of the space before the CleanSpace, giving the draining water a channel to flow freely to a disposal site. He then went on to recommend our TerraBlock and Foamax wall panel combo. TerraBlock™ crawl space insulation was developed to meet the challenge of insulating rough, uneven crawl space floors. The ¾-in.-thick sheet material is covered on both sides with a durable moisture barrier that makes the insulation resistant to puncture and abrasion damage. Foamax is a polyisocyanurate foam insulation panel with a white foil finish on the front and a foil vapor barrier on the back. It offers high-performance features such as high insulation value, a brighter, warmer basement, and can be left exposed, meaning no need to cover the panels. The homeowner was thrilled with the plan and signed on the spot. 

Several weeks later, our Foreman, Kiko P, and his team successfully installed 260 sqft of CleanSpace, 198 sqft of Drainage Matting, 198 sqft of TerraBlock, and 116 sqft of Foamax. Now, our customer can enjoy a nice warm floor and energy-efficient house!

A homeowner from St. Paul, MN got in touch with us when he noticed that his floor over his crawl space was beginning to slope inwards. Concerned that the issue might be tough to fix, the homeowner got in touch with us to see if we could help. We set him up with our FREE estimate and a few weeks later our Design Specialist, Daniel, headed out to the home to see what could be done. 

After Daniel completed his inspection, he let the homeowner know that he was experiencing slopping floors because the beams that held up the ceiling of the crawl space had been compromised. Daniel went on to say that water intrusion had led the wooden beams to rot. He explained that he had a few options to restore the stability of the crawl space and ensure that water intrusion would be a thing of the past. Daniel laid out his plan and started by recommending our SmartJack Crawl Space Stabilizers to address the sloping. He informed the homeowner that our SmartJack is an adjustable supplemental support beam specifically used for sagging crawl spaces, as it can often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position. Made with strong, corrosion-resistant, galvanized steel, these beams do not develop rust, and remain adjustable for years should you need to perform future adjustments. Next, he recommended using our Crawl Space Waterproofing systems, a combination of crawl space vapor barrier, crawl space drainage matting, and our SmartPipe drain. Daniel explained that these products work hand in hand to eliminate unwanted water from the space and provide a healthy, clean, and insulated crawl space. The homeowner agreed and work began a few weeks later. 

Our Foreman, Jeromy, and his team began the process by installing 14 of our SmartJacks throughout the crawl space of the home. Next, they laid 776 sqft of drainage matting and another 1040 sqft of vapor barrier throughout the space. Now that the job is completed our homeowner is elated to know he no longer needs to worry about the structural integrity of his home!
