Before & After of crawlspace
This Lorton, VA homeowner was dealing with water in the basement, creating concerns about moisture, damage, and long-term protection for the home. Basement water intrusion can happen for several reasons, including hydrostatic pressure, foundation cracks, and water entering at the wall and floor joint. In this case, our team completed a full inspection and found that the basement needed a complete interior waterproofing system, along with foundation crack repair to stop water from entering through the damaged wall.
NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair installed a full interior basement waterproofing system designed to collect water before it can spread across the basement floor and direct it to a reliable sump pump system. Our team also repaired the crack in the foundation wall to help seal the vulnerable area and reduce the risk of future water intrusion. This combination of basement waterproofing and foundation crack repair helped create a cleaner, drier, and better-protected basement.
After the waterproofing system was complete, the Lorton homeowner had peace of mind knowing their basement was protected from water seepage, foundation wall cracks, and future moisture problems. The finished result gave the home a stronger waterproofing solution and helped protect the basement from damage during future heavy rains.
A homeowner in Newington, VA became concerned about poor indoor air quality and cold floors after noticing musty smells coming from the crawl space. Since crawl space moisture, mold, and open vents can impact the comfort and air quality of the home above, they contacted NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair for a free inspection.
During the full crawl space inspection, our Design Specialist found that the home needed a crawl space encapsulation system to help address the moisture, odors, and temperature concerns. Our team installed SilverGlo insulation, drainage matting, and CleanSpace vapor barrier to help seal and protect the crawl space. We also repaired foundation cracks with NexusPro, removed mold with Mold-X, regraded the crawl space for better drainage, blocked the vents, and added an EverLast crawl space door.
After the project was completed, the crawl space was cleaner, better sealed, and better protected from moisture and outside air. The homeowner now has a more comfortable home with improved protection against musty odors, cold floors, crawl space humidity, and poor air quality. If you’re dealing with crawl space smells, cold floors, moisture, or air quality concerns in Newington, VA, NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair offers free inspections and customized crawl space repair solutions.
Sagging floors and unpleasant odors in a Derwood, MD home led the homeowner to seek our expertise. As shown in the photos, their initial attempt to use makeshift supports with 2x4s proved inadequate.

By incorporating CleanSpace® for encapsulation and the SaniDry™ Sedona for humidity control, we transformed their crawl space into a durable, moisture-controlled environment. This not only improved structural integrity but also eliminated odors, securing the homeowner’s comfort and safety.
