Mold Observed in Crawlspace
The musty smells coming from this crawlspace were mainly due to over-exposure to the elements which created mold.
Water Leaks and Exposure to Elements in Crawlspace
Poor plumbing also contributed to the conditions in this crawlspace, allowing for moisture and mold to build up over time.
Crawlspace Before Encapsulation
This crawlspace had various access points that allowed moisture to get in and improper air flow.
Drainage Matting Installed
Drainage matting is typically used in the CleanSpace Encapsulation services LRE provides. This material allows for proper drainage of excess moisture.
Vapor Barriers Installed
As part of the encapsulation system, vapor barrier material is used to create a clean, dry, and energy-efficient crawlspace.
Moisture Barriers Cover Top to Bottom
Vapor, or moisture, barrier materials are used to cover every square inch of the crawlspace area to keep it clean and dry for years to come.
Air Movement in Crawlspace
Dehumidifiers and fans are placed in the crawlspace as part of the encapsulation program. These pieces of equipment keep the air flow going and eliminates future moisture problems.
