Sagging floors can be the result of high moisture in a crawl space or basement. Wood is a very porous natural substance that absorbs water, holding it like a sponge. When too much water is in the air, it continues absorbing it, becoming softer and softer. For this home, high moisture in the basement had weakened this floor and caused it to sag a significant amount. Heavy appliances and furniture above the basement put increased pressure on the floors. As they become weaker, the pressure becomes too much. If the proper steps are not taken, this floor can eventually fail. This homeowner needed a stronger system to support his floor and a dehumidifier to keep the humidity down in the basement, protecting the wooden floor joists. DryZone suggested a SmartJack to support the floors and a SaniDry XT dehumidifier to dehumidify the large basement. 

This homeowner in Worton, MD, was dealing with high humidity levels in their crawlspace, raising concerns about potential damage. To address this, they sought help from the experts at DryZone. Our System Design Specialist, Tom, performed a free inspection and discovered that the humidity exceeded 55%. After discussing viable solutions with the homeowner, they decided on a plan to effectively tackle the humidity issue.   The crawlspace encapsulation involved key components such as CleanSpace and a SaniDry Sedona. The impressive SaniDry Sedona can handle up to 100 pints of moisture per day and circulate over 300 cubic feet of dry air per minute throughout the crawlspace or basement.   Thanks to these improvements, this Worton, MD homeowner can now take comfort in having a dry crawlspace. DryZone is pleased to provide long-lasting protection for their home.            

DryZone has experienced all types of crawl spaces. Some that are full of water, mold, moisture or debris. Others may have falling insulation or a musty mold smell. DryZone is prepared to find solutions for all types of crawl spaces! Look at the difference between the two crawl spaces. What an awesome encapsulation DryZone made for these homeowners! 

Crawl Spaces are not made to store water, mold, moisture, and debris. This area under your home is supposed to be dry, mold free, and clean without debris! The homeowners were experiencing these problems in the crawl space and called DryZone to the rescue. DryZone came to the home for a free inspection and came across the issues in the crawl space. Time for a crawl space encapsulation!   

A typical crawl space has a thin 6-millimeter sheet of plastic on the dirt ground with falling insulation and debris. Why keep your crawl space this way? Instead, you can contact DryZone to encapsulate the area and turn your crawl space into a dry and moldy free area!  These homeowners were extremely happy and now have peace of mind knowing their crawl space is dry and will not cause troubles for them in the future. Especially on rainy days! 

Inground pools can be a great addition to a home. However, with concrete pool decks, you always run the risk of the slabs shifting. With people getting in and out of the pool, water spills on the concrete, sinking between the seams and washing away dirt underneath. As a result, the concrete slabs become uneven, causing dangerous tripping hazards. And because the pool lining can be sensitive, chipping away and repouring concrete can become messy! DryZone repaired this concrete pool deck by drilling a small hole in the concrete slab and injecting a hardening foam underneath. The waterproof foam expands, lifting the concrete slab back to its original height, and the seams are sealed with a water-resistant sealant. Now, this pool is ready for summer!
