Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

We reinforced the crawl space by installing a steel support system designed to stabilize the floor joists and beams. This included adding a solid steel base on the concrete footing, a steel beam for extra strength, and a joist stabilizer to keep everything secure and level.

We installed a heavy-duty SmartJack to support the floor and stop it from sagging. There was a cracked wood beam, so we fixed it by attaching two new boards on each side to make it solid again. Then we added a strong laminated beam to help carry the weight and keep everything safe and stable.

We started by adding a drainage system to capture any water before it becomes a problem. To keep the crawl space protected, we installed a reliable pump system with an airtight lid and alarm for extra peace of mind. We also included a backup battery system, so even during a power outage the space stays dry and protected. Outside, we set up a discharge line to safely carry water away from the home. At the end of the line, we added a discreet outlet that blends in with the yard and an overflow protection feature to prevent flooding in case the line ever gets clogged or frozen.

We transformed the crawl space into a clean, dry, and healthy area. First, we sealed off the entire space to keep out moisture from the ground and walls, making sure everything was properly fastened and airtight. To help with drainage and add durability, we laid down a protective layer beneath the liner. We also took care of rodent prevention by sealing up the overhangs with wire mesh and insulating the areas to keep the space warmer. The entire crawl space was thoroughly cleaned, old insulation was removed, rodent droppings were hepa vacuumed, and all surfaces were treated for mould and bacteria. We wiped down heating ducts, sewer lines, and got rid of spider webs to leave everything fresh. To keep the space dry long-term, we installed a dehumidifier that helps control humidity levels. Lastly, we added high-quality insulation to the walls and rim joists, sealing up all the seams to boost energy efficiency and ensure the space stays in great shape moving forward.
