Crawl Space Inspection
An inspection by an LRE Design Specialist revealed that the homeowner's crawl space lacked a proper moisture control system, leaving it vulnerable to water damage and mold growth.
Ineffective Crawl Space Drainage System
Previous drainage and water removal systems in the crawl space had proven to be ineffective, leaving the area vulnerable to serious moisture issues after heavy rainfall.
Preparing Crawl Space for Encapsulation
The LRE team prepares the home's crawl space for the installation of the CleanSpace and drainage systems by first clearing the area of debris.
Installing Sump Pump System
A specialized sump pump is installed as part of the new crawl space drainage system to efficiently remove any flooding or excess rainwater.
Installing Drainage Matting
Drainage matting is placed on the crawl space's ground floor as a part of the CleanSpace system to help direct any flooding rainwater into the drainage system for removal.
Crawl Space Moisture Barrier
The LRE team seals the entire crawl space with the CleanSpace moisture barrier to protect the area from moisture penetration and to inhibit mold growth.
Complete Sump Pump Installation
The sump pump in the new crawl space drainage system is fully installed and ready to efficiently remove any flooding or excess rainwater.
Exterior Drainage Pipe and Relief Drain
The exterior drainage pipe and relief drain extending from the crawl space are carefully installed in a trench in the yard, directing any water from the crawl space safely away from the home.
Concealing Drainage System
After the drainage system has been fully installed, the LRE team carefully conceals the drainage pipe with the previously excavated soil.
Crawl Space Dehumidifier
A specialized dehumidifier is installed in the crawl space by the LRE team as a part of the CleanSpace system to keep the air in the area clean and dry throughout the year.
Complete Crawl Space Encapsulation
Following the complete installation of the CleanSpace and drainage systems, the homeowner's crawl space is now fully protected from moisture damage and mold growth.
