A new home can become your own blank canvas for renovations. For this homeowner, renovations were put on pause due to sagging and uneven floors. They knew they needed to trust the experts to not only level her floor but protect her subfloor from high moisture in the crawl space.
Air from your crawl space enters your home constantly. If your crawl space is not properly sealed, the air can contain allergens that irritate conditions like asthma. This homeowner noticed when they moved into a new home, their asthma symptoms increased. To protect this homeowner, DryZone encapsulated the crawl space and added a stronger dehumidifier.
Crawl space entrances are not always watertight and welcome rainwater into the crawl space. If they are not drained properly, the well can fill and hold buckets of water! If a crawl space is improperly covered, it can also welcome animals and insects. This homeowner wanted to prevent unexpected water or guests from entering the crawl space. The Turtl crawl space entry not only has a water tight seal but has a lock option to lock out unwanted visitors from your crawl space.
The first step of the transformation begins with the instillation of CleanSpace to prevent water moisture from the ground and the walls to enter the crawlspace. As a further insurance against moisture within the crawlspace we also sealed all the vents and installed the SaniDry. The SaniDry is a dehumidification system designed to eliminate dampness from the air by drying it out though unlike a conventional dehumidifier it has a hose so that it can empty itself.
This Crawlsapce had long been neglected and so large amounts of moisture have permeated and allowed for mold to propagate. To fix this the homeowner decided to call the experts here at DryZone to come out and Install CleanSpace. This would prevent any more moisture from entering the crawlspace which would prevent more mold growth by making it so it would not have the conditions it needs
