Job Stories

The homeowners of this crawl space in Centerville were very worried about the standing water in their crawl space. They knew that the longer they had a water under their home the bigger the problems. Contacting DryZone was their first step. They had head about the company from a neighbor who had used them in the past for basement waterproofing.  Our Designer Derek came to their home and inspected their property and helped create a solution that would work best for their home and their budget. The best solution for them was to install HydroLink, Drainage Matting, Clean Space, and seal all the doors and vents. The dried out the space with a dehumidifier that drains into the TripleSafe Sump Pump.

These homeowners in Centreville, MD were extremely upset with the outcome of their home. They were experiencing many problems, which included cracks on the side of their home as well as sinking concrete on their sidewalk leading into their home. This was a serious problem for the homeowners because they were concerned with the health of their home and that was when they decided to contact DryZone with their problems. DryZone suggested injecting the PolyLevel foam into the concrete and lifting it to the desired level and filling the concrete crack in the wall as well.  The homeowners are extremely happy with the outcome and finally have a peace of mind! 

The outlook was grim for this homeowner. Drooping insulation, a crawl space with standing water; we know that these things add up to an unhealthy environment for these homeowners and damages the home. Team DryZone came in and changed the outlook for these homeowners for good! Drainage matting, Clean space liner and an SaniDry CX will protect this investment for years to come. 

This homeowner was experiencing their stairs pulling away from the wall in the front of their home. With a call to DryZone, they found out they needed better support throughout the whole middle of the home. With the SmartJack system, we installed 7 SmartJacks and a supplemental beam to strengthen and lift the home to its original position. No more staircase movement!

After one too many tripping hazards were noticed around the pool, this Centreville, MD homeowner called the concrete lifting and leveling experts at DryZone. DryZone injected a hardening and waterproof foam underneath the concrete pool deck to lift it to its original pour height. After lifting, the seams of the concrete were sealed with a waterproof sealant to protect the ground underneath from washing away any further.

A homeowner in Centreville, MD was experiencing a serious issue with their garage floor—sections of the concrete were sinking into the ground and pulling away from the foundation walls. Concerned about the potential for further damage and the high cost of full replacement, they began researching repair options online. That’s when they discovered DryZone and reached out to our team for expert guidance.   After scheduling a free inspection, one of DryZone’s System Design Specialists assessed the garage and confirmed that the concrete slab was settling due to voids in the soil beneath. Left unaddressed, the problem could worsen over time, leading to further structural concerns and safety hazards.   To permanently lift and stabilize the sunken concrete, DryZone recommended a combination of PolyLevel and NexusPro. PolyLevel is a high-density polyurethane foam that is injected through small, penny-sized holes drilled into the slab. As the foam expands beneath the surface, it fills voids and gently lifts the slab back into its original position, providing a long-lasting, stable solution. NexusPro was then used to seal and protect the joints and cracks in the concrete, preventing water intrusion and future erosion.   Thanks to this advanced concrete repair system, the Centreville homeowner can now enjoy a level, stable garage floor with no fear of continued settling or foundation separation. DryZone is proud to have helped protect another home and provide a cost-effective alternative to full concrete replacement.

After living in the home for almost 20 years, this homeowner started to notice a strange smell in his kitchen. The smell was not that noticeable all year, but whenever it rained the smell would grow stronger and stronger. When a visitor came to his home, they pointed out the smell to the homeowner, stating it could be coming from his crawl space. He decided to take a look and discovered some signs of microbial growth attached to his insulation. With the insulation also being wet to the touch, he was worried it would affect his floors over time. DryZone encapsulated this crawl space completely, sealing away the outside air. To control the environment and protect the floorboards, a SaniDry Sedona and TripleSafe sump pump were added.
