DryZone, LLC Before & After Photos

Are you tired of stepping in a puddle of water as soon as you crawl into your crawlspace? Some of that water is probably coming in through your old metal door. A Turtl is made of heavy-duty plastic and will never warp, rust, or rot. It has a solid bottom to keep ground water from coming up into it. A Turtl is also airtight which means the nasty humid air is going to stay out of the crawl space as well.

When a home settles and the floors start to sag it can be caused by several different things. One of those reasons is wet wooden support beams. The wood gets a little squishy when it is too wet and that can cause them to smash around the concrete columns in a crawlspace. Most of the time the damage is minor and easily corrected. Many people will try and wedge wooden shims up under the beams. But if the problem is wet wood, why would adding more wood solve the problem? DryZone uses metal shims for minor adjustments. The best way to ensure that this problem is permanently fixed is to dry out the crawlspace and keep it dry. Metal shims will help to correct the small damage before the wood cracks and rots.

Many homes across Delmarva have an old pit and a sump pump in the basement. Sometimes it's even just a plastic bucket with several holes drilled in it. DryZone knows that sump pumps are more than just an open hole and a cheap pump. We use high quality Zoeller pumps and the container is sealed at the top. No humidity will come up out of the lid. The lid also keeps the entire unit quiet, most homeowners can't even tell when it's working.

PowerBraces are one of the great foundation support products that DryZone uses to stabilize a broken basement wall. These are generally used when an underground obstacle prevents a proper GeoLock wall anchor installation. The PowerBrace is a heavy steel beam and an adjustable bracket. It pushes on the bowing wall to provide support and carries a hefty warranty.

The old 6 mil liner that gets installed after the house is built only serves to keep your knees a little cleaner. The edges are loose and that lets the moist air escape into the crawlspace. When that happens, the humidity goes up and leads to mold outbreaks. With the CleanSpace system in place, the wetness is sealed in the dirt and the air, wood, and insulation can dry out.
