Yikes! Nasty Crawl Space
We found this crawl space looking worse for wear. Not only that, but the smell confirmed it was getting wet down here as well. The sagging floor joists were a classic sign of foundation settlement.
Crawl Space Smart Jacks
After removing the debris and old insulation from the crawl space, the crew had more room to install the SmartJack stabilizers. These supports are installed on a poured concrete footing for a permanent fix to sagging floors. They can even be adjusted over time to correct floor movement.
Encapsulation in Progress
The first step to encapsulating the crawl space is to lay drainage matting on the floors to help with water dispersion.
Clean, Dry, and Healthy Crawl Space!
Encapsulating the crawl space will keep it free from moisture, mold, dirt, and pests. The improved air quality in the crawl space will benefit the entire house as well!
