Problem: The home had a high moisture content in the crawl space. The exposed earth allowed year-round humidity to cause severe damage to the wood beam.

Solution: Install new support columns to hold up the reinforced beam, along with the Clean Space vapour barrier to seal off the home from the earth and finally a high-performance dehumidifier to allow the space to be conditioned and healthy.

A vapour barrier or an encapsulation system, is crucial in a dirt floor crawl space. Isolating the home from the earth is 1 step of 4 in fixing the issue! The barrier needs to be engineered to sit on dirt and not breakdown and become brittle.

Problem: Dirt floor crawl space, 6.5ft high, allowing water inside. Mold, odors and pests were an occurring issue.

Solution: Encapsulate entire sub-level and ensure adequate drainage was in place. Now is a safe, dry, comfortable area for storage.
