Job Stories

When a pipe burst in their crawl space, this Salisbury, MD couple realized their home was not prepared for water damage. They called the waterproofing experts at DryZone to waterproof their crawl space and reduce moisture from groundwater and rainy weather. 

When floors are insulated, the insulation can hold moisture in a crawl space and start to fall. For this Salisbury, MD home, the insulation had fallen and become soaked with groundwater, causing microbial growth. With cold floors and a musty smell, the homeowner knew they needed to call a crawl space expert to do repairs. DryZone completely removed the wet insulation from underneath the home and encapsulated this crawl space. To control moisture in the air, they also installed a dehumidifier. 

Building additions onto a home can help expand your living space without needing to move. However, if you add on to an older home, it could cause some signs of settling due to the ground being moved. This homeowner knew they would need additional support under their home and their contractor reached out to DryZone to add some. DryZone installed helical piers underneath the footing of the home to give the addition and the original home some extra strength. Now both parts of this home have a solid foundation and stand strong!

Water, water, water in this home in Salisbury, MD. An HVAC crew member explained to this homeowner that his crawl space was full of standing water and recommended the owner call the experts at DryZone. Upon arrival, DryZone couldn't believe what they saw: massive amounts of standing water. The DryZone team wasted no time in removing the water. After the water was removed, the team removed the insulation and debris from the crawl space. Before installing the CleanSpace Technology liner, the DryZone team blocked all vents from the inside, regarded the ground, and installed a HydroLink Drainage system. The HydroLink Drainage system goes around the entire perimeter of the crawl space to ensure maximum drainage of any groundwater seepage. The team also installed a SmartSump pump and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to further protect the space from water and moisture. CleanSpace Technology was installed throughout the whole crawl space. Outside the crawl space, the DryZone team added an exterior discharge pipe, a LawnScape outlet, and a new EverLast door for additional protection to the crawl space. The homeowner was flabbergasted! He couldn't believe that in just five days, the DryZone team was able to fully restore his crawl space. The homeowner stated, "I'm always calling DryZone and telling everyone about you!"

A homeowner in Salisbury, MD, was tackling home improvement projects one step at a time. Knowing their crawlspace was the right place to start, they did some research, saw a DryZone commercial on TV, and reached out to schedule a free inspection.    Our System Design Specialist, Jamie, conducted a thorough inspection and discovered that the humidity in the crawlspace was over 64% well above the recommended 55% benchmark.    The solution for this crawlspace encapsulation included key components like CleanSpace, an EverLast Door, and a SaniDry Sedona. The SaniDry Sedona can remove up to 100 pints of moisture per day and circulates over 300 cubic feet of dry air per minute throughout the crawlspace or basement.    Thanks to DryZone, this Salisbury, MD, homeowner can now enjoy peace of mind knowing their crawlspace is properly protected. We're proud to help safeguard another home on Delmarva!

Instead of insulating underneath the floors, DryZone installed a 2" thick foam board to the walls and CleanSpace to the floors to prevent cold air from entering the crawlspace. Now the whole crawlspace is insulated to prevent cold floors.
