MidSouth Crawlspace Solutions

This is the crawlspace of a beautiful home located in Columbus, MS. This customer was dealing with water damage from a busted pipe. We came in and installed a full encapsulation system to prevent any further water damage. To help with the pre-existing water damage we installed a dehumidifier to dry out moisture and keep from future wood rot. 

This Columbus Mississippi crawlspace had sagging joists that were starting to cause issues inside the home. It also was holding water. As we know, crawlspaces and moisture go together like Mexican food and tight jeans and NO ONE wants that. 

Our production crew was able to come in and stabilize the joists with our SmartJack support posts. These steel posts are adjustable and can be adjusted over time as needed. This makes them an ideal choice as houses are constantly shifting through the years. This is a quick install and in many cases, homes can be restored to their original positions. 

We also encapsulated the crawlspace because so much moisture was being brought in and staying. Our team sealed off the vents, installed our CleanSpace Liner and encapsulation system. 

This is the crawlspace of a home located in Kosciusko, MS. These customers had standing water in theor crawlspace, as well as high humidity under and within their home. 

This home was experiencing water intrusion in the crawlspace, causing pooling in a corner under the home. It was constantly damp leaving musty smells and frustrated homeowners. 

Not only do we install our exclusive CleanSpace liner in every crawlspace we encapsulate, but we preface it with drainage matting underneath. Drainage matting prevents abrasion holes in the CleanSpace liner, provides a drainage space, and the airspace is a thermal break between the cold earth and the CleanSpace. This break raises the temperature of the liner more towards the indoor temperature, not the earth temperature, meaning it keeps the crawlspace very close to the temperature inside your home. Not only does our system keep the space under your house clean and dry, it also insulates it! That's a WIN-WIN!

Here is one of the muddy and messy crawlspaces that we were able to transform into a dry, clean space. Even though crawlspaces are typically out of sight, the condition of the underside of your home has the chance of negatively affecting your home. The moist air that enters crawlspaces will make its way upwards and could potentially damage your floors, like was seen in this case. The homeowners wanted to prevent their floors from buckling again in the future, and an Encapsulation is our permanent solution. The white liner you can see on the ground is our heavy-duty Cleanspace Liner, it will prevent moisture from making its way into the crawlspace. Under the liner is our Drainage Matting, shaped to help guide water toward one of our installed sump pumps, that will send water outside of the home. With all this combined, the result is a dry crawlspace and a safe home.

Large home in Philadelphia, MS with water seeping through the concrete block walls of the basement. This entire basement is living space. We installed our Waterguard system in the floor and adhered our BrightWall system to the walls to direct any water that comes into the basement to the sump pump, that would then discharge it outside. 

This basement was struggling with water intrusion, as most basements do. The homeowner gave us a call to see what we could do to rectify the situation. Our waterproofing system is installed under the concrete, on top of the footer. This way, it will catch all the water coming up from the ground before it breaks the surface, and will direct it into the Sump Pump we install in the lowest spot. We also covered the walls with our BrightWall plastic sheeting. Not only is it also waterproof and drains excess water right into our WaterGuard system, it brightens the dark basement and makes it a cleaner, happier looking space!

This crawlspace in Toomsuba was holding moisture and mold, causing buckling floors inside the home. Our team treated the mold and installed our waterproofing encapsulation. This should eventually help the floors settle back down in the home. While we can't guarantee this, we've found they do lay down in most cases. 

Now this crawlspace is cleaned out, free of moisture, and insulated from our encapsulation system.

Both these images were taken inside the same crawlspace in Collinsville, MS, and clearly show the drastic difference between a standard vapor barrier and our Cleanspace Liner. The original vapor barrier wasn't able to do its job of acting as a barrier between the moist dirt and crawlspace itself. You can see where it has pulled away from the edges and begun deteriorating. Our Cleanspace Liner on the otherhand, is fastened securely to both the walls and floor of the crawlspace, making ground water seepage impossible.

This home was older and our customer called us with a terrible moldy / musty smell. We cleaned the mold for our customer then did a full encapsulation so the customer will never have to worry about the mold or smell coming back! The encapsulation helps keep away moisture and mildew.
