A crawl space is the foundation of the air system in your home. A open crawl space can cause all sorts of troubles including odor, allergens, and heating/cooling costs.
By encapsulating your crawl space like Sam of Ballwin did, you can clean up the air quality in your entire home and create a usable space.

A crawlspace's insulation was failing in Ellisville, MO, and moisture was entering it. It was also not supported correctly, causing even more issues. To fix these problems, SilverGlo Insulation was first installed. This features a radiant barrier infused with graphite, so the heat is reflected into the crawlspace, saving energy. Next, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth, dramatically reducing the humidity level. This will also eliminate mold growth and make the whole house healthier. The white finished side will brighten the crawlspace and allow one to see inside easily. Lastly, the SmartJack System was installed. These are steel support systems that can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in a crawlspace. They are unaffected by moisture, as they will not rust, weaken, or be affected by mold. These will lift the floors above back toward their original position, and reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans Thanks to these systems, this crawlspace will remain warm, dry, and stable for years to come!
Water vapor was seeping into a crawlspace in Ballwin, MO, creating a damp and musty environment. To solve this issue, the CleanSpace Encapsulation System was installed. This will completely isolate the crawlspace from the earth and reduce the humidity level. Any mold growth will also be eliminated, making the whole house healthier. The white color will also brighten the crawlspace and make it easier to see inside it. This crawlspace will remain dry and healthy for years to come!
Joe and Jill, homeowners in Bonne Terre, Missouri, were experiencing a very humid basement that was developing a smell. They had worked with Woods Basement Systems before for Geo-Lock Wall Anchors and a TripleSafe sump pump, so they gave us a call back. System Design Specialist Bill C. developed the perfect plan to get their basement humidity down and odor-free.
Foreman Kevin J. and his crew installed CleanSpace vapor barrier on the walls and WaterGuard around the perimeter. The CleanSpace used on the walls will collect any water vapor that makes it through the porous walls. Instead of evaporating into the basement, it will now be caught and redirected to the WaterGuard. The WaterGuard will collect the water and take it to the sump pump to be removed from the home.
Joe and Jill can now enjoy a dry basement.
Bob and Jamie L. of Bonne Terre, Missouri had a moist, musty crawl space that needed repaired, so they called Woods Basement Systems for a solution. Systems design specialist, John S. recommended installing a SmartSump pump and CleanSpace.
Foreman, Michael P. installed the products. The SmartSump pump is specifically made for crawl spaces and it is guaranteed to protect against leaks and floods. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier used to seal off a crawl space from dirt, critters, and moisture. It is made of inorganic materials, so it does not support mold growth.
Now Bob and Jamie L. have a healthy crawl space.
