The homeowners in Pocomoke City, MD are experiencing moldy odors throughout their home and they are not sure the best solution to get rid of the moisture and smell. Luckily, the homeowners contacted DryZone to inspect the home and find the problem. Right away, DryZone noticed the mold odors were coming from the crawl space under their home. The best way to get rid of these problems is by encapsulating the crawl space and installing a dehumidifier to take out the moisture and keep the air dry. 

The homeowners in Pocomoke City, MD had a bad feeling about their crawl space because they had not seen the inside of their crawl space in several years. Luckily, they contacted DryZone for a free no-obligation inspection to take a look at the crawl space and find the problem and provide a solution for the homeowners. While DryZone was inspecting the property, a few problems were spotted such as water, falling insulation, debris, and moisture. DryZone suggested installing a dehumidifier to keep the air dry and moisture free. Along with the dehumidifier, DryZone suggested installing the interior liner CleanSpace, water drainage mat, and TripleSafe sump pump. 

This homeowner needed a better way to get into the crawl space. Before, the only way to view the crawl space was through a rusty vent that was not large enough for a person to crawl through. If they wanted an encapsulation, they needed an entrance large enough. DryZone expanded the vent hole to create an appropriately sized entrance. Around the entrance, they made a pit that was equipped to drain water away from the crawl space instead of leaking into it. Now they can have their crawl space encapsulated, and regularly serviced.  

This crawl space in Pocomoke City, MD was in shambles and the homeowners called the experts at DryZone. The homeowners explained to the DryZone team that their home had a terrible smell and suddenly, they noticed a massive spike in their utility bill. The experts with DryZone inspected the space immediately and what they found was astonishing: standing water, falling insulation, damp floor, mold on the walls, and high humidity levels. The homeowners did not hesitate to do all of what the DryZone experts recommended. The space was cleaned out of all the debris, water, and falling insulation. The team then regraded the ground for better drainage before installing CleanSpace Technology. Along with CleanSpace Technology, the crawl space was situated with a SaniDry Sedona to help keep humidity levels down along with a Condensate Pump. In addition, a new EverLast Door was installed to help better keep out water and unconditioned air.  Due to the hard work, attention to detail, and dedication, the DryZone team was able to satisfy another homeowner.
