Job Stories

The Homeowner has been doing renovations to their home and would like it encapsulated so the floors they just replaced will not have to be replaced again. We will be encapsulating the home but not encapsulating the addition because you cannot get under it.

The homeowner gave us a call because they know that their crawlspace is a mess and needs attention. It is so bad that their daughter cannot even stay there when she visits due to allergies. They even notice a smell coming up from the area which they want gone for good. They want to remedy this entire situation, so it is problem free for the remaining time they plan to live in the home.

This homeowner gave us a call because they needed a new sump pump installed with a brand-new discharge line to pump the water out of the home. We will also be installing IceGuard to ensure that there are no floods from a clogged or frozen line.

This homeowner reached out to us because they have been looking to encapsulate their crawlspace for quite some time now. They had us come take a look to see how we could help make the area clean and healthy moving forward. After first look, we noticed the old insulation was hanging and needed to be removed and a waterproofing system needed to be added.   Our team went in and removed all that old insulation and added our CleanSpace system along with a brand-new top of the line waterproof system. This system includes a SmartSump, IceGuard to prevent floods from clogged or frozen discharge line, LawnScape outlet at the end of the discharge line and a HydroLink perimeter drainage system.

A homeowner in Lincoln, DE, began noticing signs that their home's foundation might be settling. Since this was the home they had grown up in, it was especially important to them to restore it to safe, livable condition and preserve it for future generations. After researching local experts, they contacted DryZone to schedule a free inspection.    Our System Design Specialist, Derek, performed a detailed inspection and confirmed that the foundation had started to sink. He explained the repair options available and recommended a solution tailored to the homeowner's needs.    To address the issue, we installed a Helical Pier System, which is designed to permanently stabilize a home's foundation. In many cases, it can even lift the structure back to its original position. This system involves driving steel piers deep into the ground using compact construction equipment. Once the piers reach stable soil or bedrock, a heavy-duty steel bracket is secured to the home's footing, effectively transferring the structure's weight from weak surface soils to a stronger, load-bearing layer below.    With their foundation now stabilized, the homeowner can feel confident knowing their home is protected for the future. DryZone is proud to help another family on Delmarva preserve the place they call home.   

Water and efflorescence had made their home in this crawl space. Every season, the home held water in puddles all around. The homeowner knew this was a common occurrence, but did not know the best solution as he lived in a high water table area. He assumed the water was always going to be under his home, but wouldn't affect it negatively. However, once inspected, it was discovered the floorboards were holding water like a sponge and began to compress on piers. Something had to be done to reduce humidity, and keep ground water far away from the home! DryZone did a full encapsulation on this Parsonsburg, MD crawl space with a strong TripleSafe sump pump. 

After seeing photos of crawl space encapsulations, this homeowner wanted something similar for their crawl space. They had not noticed too many moisture issues in their home but wanted to protect their investment from upcoming storms. DryZone inspected the crawl space and noticed some unlevel ground that held standing water. To help these homeowners, DryZone encapsulated the crawl space and added sump pumps to remove groundwater. 

After an unfortunate encounter with another company, this Ellendale, DE homeowner knew he needed an expert to finish their basement the right way. As someone who enjoyed entertaining and wanted a dream movie room, he wanted the finished project to keep his movie equipment safe and dry. A design specialist from DryZone designed a waterproofing system to protect the basement from high moisture coming through the walls. Next, a border of mold-resistant wall paneling was added. To finish the project, a plastic-based wood plank floor was installed. In order to keep the floors dry, a TripleSafe sump pump was installed in the corner of one of the basement rooms. Now the basement and movie rooms are ready for guests to enjoy!

This homeowner reached out to us to come take a look at their crawlspace and sump pump as it has been a while since the area was inspected. After taking a look at the area and the old sump pump, we determined a few things could be done in order to keep the area clean, dry and healthy. To start, we are replacing their current sump pump with one of our super sumps and ultra sump. We will also be installing a new discharge line that will run through the crawl space. Lastly, we are also installing a hydro link in the crawl space with a drop down duct to run into the sump pump.

A home in Ellendale, DE had a crawl space suffering horribly from mold and mildew so the homeowners called the experts at DryZone. DryZone came to their home and assessed the situation. The experts determined that the crawl space could benefit from a new entrance door to the space and full encapsulation and did just that. The crawl space was cleared of all debris, regraded for maximum drainage and then fully encapsulated using CleanSpace Technology. The experts of DryZone also replaced the old entryway with a new EverLast Door. The homeowners are proud to have a home that no longer smells!
