Before & After Photos

Crawlspace support blocks were shifting in Blue Mound, IL, and the floor beams were rotting. To solve these issues, the SmartJack System was installed. These steel support systems can permanently stabilize and level the floor joists and girders in the crawlspace. These add strength and stability to the existing columns and piers. 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, reduce floor “bounce” caused by excessive joist spans, and solve the problem once and for all!

This dirt crawl space in Mt. Vernon, Illinois used to collect water, which damaged the wood and insulation. Woods Basement Systems installed a vapor barrier with a SaniDry dehumidifier that keeps this crawl space dry.

Homeowners in Pontoon Beach, Illinois found their crawl space wasted energy by increasing heating and cooling costs. Woods Basment Systems sealed the crawl space, protecting it from mold growth, rotting floors (due to humidity and mold), and odors—helping to preserve the property value and cut utility costs.

This leaky Mattoon, Illinois crawl space used to experience higher utility costs due to an open dirt crawlspace. After sealing off the crawlspace with a multi-layered vapor barrier called CleanSpace, Woods Basement Systems installed a crawl space dehumidifier—slashing energy costs.

The temperature in this O'Fallon crawl space was 71 degrees, but the humidity level was over 80.  This high level of humidity caused mold to grow rapidly, and wood rot was affecting the floor joist and sub-flooring. Another major problem was that the crawl space air was getting up into the house.  Unfortunately, if it's in your crawl space, it's in your home.  We installed a complete encapsulation system of CleanSpace® and SaniDry® dehumidifier to solve these problems.  The upstairs air quality was greatly improved and the energy bills dropped too!
