The store front in Bridgeville, DE is experiencing sinking concrete issues. This is a serious tripping hazard for customers that are trying to enter or exit the store. Instead of having a safety issue, DryZone injected PolyLevel foam into the concrete to raise the sinking slab.  Now the concrete is at the right level and the customers safety is in good hands. 

This family in Bridgeville, DE was in need of additional space for toys, games and family movie nights. With a call to DryZone, we were able to remodel a space with our Total Basement Finishing System! Not only is this space being used for family game nights and movie nights, but it's also being used for distance learning during the day!

Brian called DryZone after seeing photos of crawlspace encapsulations. He stated he would like his crawlspace to look as clean and bright as the ones he had seen online. After a free inspection, the inspector noticed some debris and a ripped vapor barrier.  DryZone then wrapped the crawlspace in CleanSpace in order to enclose the walls and floor. In order to drain out any ground water, a TripleSafe Sump Pump was also installed with a drainage pipe to the outside of the home. Finally, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was added to protect any exposed wood from collecting moisture. 

HVAC systems can cause high moisture when they have condensation or "sweat" on the units and duct work. When a crawl space is improperly sealed, high humidity can cause higher amounts of condensation, which in turn increases humidity more! This homeowner was informed his HVAC system was showing signs of microbial growth due to high moisture. After a free inspection, DryZone sealed the crawl space with CleanSpace and added a dehumidifier to control the environment. 

This homeowner reached out to us with concerns about the stability of his floors. It had gotten so bad that some of the doors and windows in his home are not working. Our team went out to take a look and recommended the installation of smartjack supports (up to 5ft tall) and smartjack XT supports (up to 8-12 ft high) to support the floor joist system above. These smartjacks will lift the foundation and ensure that it is level permanently. 

This homeowner called DryZone with the intention of improving their crawl space. DryZone was able to help by encapsulating the crawl space with a CleanSpace liner and adding a Dehumidifier to control the environment.
