Crawlspace Encapsulation in Bondurant, IA

This homeowner was worried about mosquitoes and mold in her moldy, wet crawlspace. She was also concerned about her children because the mold and high humidity are associated with harmful allergens. She had heard of our services and she wanted us to give her a permanent solution for her home to be dry and with low humidity.

We sent System Design Specialist Kevin French to inspect the crawlspace and determine what was causing the mold and mosquitoes to live there. Kevin found that the crawlspace was completely wet and that the AC condenser line was dripping into the middle of the crawlspace without any drainage system. The water was just sitting there, causing the crawlspace to be wet, and the humidity to grow mold quickly. Our team wanted to protect this homeowner's home right away, so we sent a crew to start encapsulating her crawlspace. Our team utilized CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to encapsulate and protect the home from moisture, a sump pump with a proper discharge pipe to bring water away from the home, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to bring down the humidity level and purify the air.

The homeowner was so happy with the way everything turned out and he was very appreciative of all the things the crew was able to do for him. Check out his newly encapsulated crawlspace!

Drafty Crawl Space and Wet Basement Fixed in Nevada, IA

Gary H. was tired of having a musty odor in his basement each time it rained. He spends a lot of time in his basement, and it is very cold and drafty and a lot of excess moisture. Looking for a solution, he decided to call Thrasher Foundation Repair.

System Design Specialist Frank Lindsey went out to his home. Frank was able to see that the crawl space is attached to the basement and was creating a draft and musty odor. The crew installed drainage matting and CleanSpace to encapsulate the crawl space, so the walls would remain dry. We also removed existing insulation from the floor joists and ceiling. To keep the rest of the basement dry, WaterGuard was also put in, to direct the water out of the basement into the sump pump.

Basement Moisture Problems in Baxter, IA

This homeowner was tired of moisture on her basement walls making her basement look dirty. She has used our company for years, so she gave us a call.

We sent Service Technician Braydon Aker to inspect the walls and determine the reason why moisture was on the walls so that he could give the best solution for this problem. Braydon found that moisture was coming in through the concrete blocks leaving efflorescence and water stains which made the walls look dirty. To give the homeowner a clean look in addition to trapping all of the moisture behind the wall, Braydon installed a CleanSpace Basement Wall Vapor Barrier to protect the homeowner's walls. 

The homeowner was so happy with how clean the product looks. Check out her new wall vapor barrier!

Uneven Floors Leveled in Forest City, IA

These homeowners were concerned about their uneven floors. They were already planning to have their radon mitigated, so they decided to have some work done in their crawlspace as well.

They gave us a call for a free estimate, so we sent System Design Specialist James Denning to look at the crawlspace and determine if they were causing the floors to sag. James found that there was a damp, musty smell coming from the crawlspace due to excess moisture in the air, which was also causing the floor supports to weaken. After discussing the options with James and seeing the pre-mailer book they received about crawlspace repairs, they decided to have us take care of their crawlspace repairs. Our team determined that they needed to bury the downspouts so that water could not get into the crawlspace and cause problems with moisture. The team then installed Silver Gloe Insulation to help save on energy cost for the homeowners. Finally, our team addressed the support problems by using SmartJacks and adding supplemental beams to even out the floor as well as installing a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to finish protecting the support beams from moisture. 

The homeowners were so glad that they had us help with their crawlspace. They were grateful that we were able to work with and around their Radon company as well. Check out their newly secured crawlspace!
