Job Stories

John M. contacted the experts at DryZone while in the process of selling their home. During the inspection, it was discovered that the crawlspace had microbial growth and elevated humidity levels. This issue would hinder their ability to sell the house, so they needed a solution. Our System Design Specialist conducted a free inspection and confirmed the high humidity and microbial growth in the crawlspace.   To address this, we implemented a comprehensive crawlspace encapsulation system, which included CleanSpace, CleanSpace Wall Liner, and a SaniDry Sedona. The humidity level in the crawlspace exceeded 70%, but with the SaniDry Sedona, it can maintain relative humidity at 55%. This powerful dehumidifier has an impressive capacity of 100 pints per day and circulates over 300 cubic feet of dry air per minute throughout the space.   John M. is thrilled that we've resolved the crawlspace problems, allowing them to proceed with selling their home. Team DryZone is delighted to have helped this Ocean City, MD homeowner be able to sell their property without any complications.        

A homeowner in Ocean City, MD was experiencing issues with the back porch of their home settling into the ground. Concerned that the problem would only get worse, they began researching local foundation repair companies and discovered DryZone. They reached out to schedule a free inspection, and our System Design Specialist, Jamie, conducted a thorough evaluation. Jamie explained the solutions we offer that could potentially lift the porch back to its original level and provide lasting peace of mind.    The primary component for this project was the installation of push piers. These rugged steel piers feature a patent-pending external sleeve that reinforces the pier at the critical tension point beneath the bracket. Push piers are installed next to the footing and secured with a heavy-duty steel bracket. Once stabilization and lifting are complete, the surrounding soil is backfilled to finish the installation. This method is the best foundation repair option when soil conditions are unknown, delivering a permanent solution to settlement issues.    Thanks to these proven solutions, this homeowner can now rest easy knowing their porch is secure and will no longer sink into the ground. DryZone is proud to have helped protect another home on Delmarva. 

A homeowner in Ocean City, MD, noticed cracks forming in the foundation of their home and suspected it might be settling. Concerned that the problem could worsen, they began searching for local foundation repair experts and came across DryZone. After reviewing our before-and-after projects and learning more about the solutions we provide, they scheduled a free inspection with our team.    Our System Design Specialist, Tom, performed a detailed inspection and confirmed that the home's foundation was indeed settling. Tom explained the available solutions, and the homeowner decided to move forward with the project.    The main solution for this repair was the installation of Helical Piers. This system permanently stabilizes the home's foundation and, in many cases, can even restore it to level. Steel piers are mechanically "screwed" deep into the soil with compact equipment, reaching load-bearing strata. Once in place, a heavy-duty steel foundation bracket is attached to the piers and secured to the home's footing, providing long-lasting support.    Thanks to these solutions, this Ocean City homeowner now has peace of mind knowing their foundation is stabilized against future settlement. At DryZone, we're proud to provide foundation repair solutions that protect homes across Delmarva. 

In Bethany Beach, DE, we installed a beautiful granite-like polyaspartic floor coating underneath their beach home to give it a fresh new look!  The surface is first prepped using an industrial grinder. Then, cracks and surface damage are repaired. After this step, the base coat is applied. Decorative flake is then aggresively broadcast over the surface. Once this sets for some time, the excess flake is taken off and a clear top coat is applied.  Not only is this coating highly abrasion and chemical resistant, it won't yellow or peel, and it's installed in 1 day!  

This homeowner had no idea what was in their crawlspace! When our System Design Specialist checked it out, they found tons of water and debris.  Our DryZone team came in to save the day!

When this homeowner purchased the home, he was told to have someone take a look at the crawlspace to ensure the area was well protected. Our team came out to take a look and noticed that the crawlspace has already been encapsulated with foam board insulation on the walls, which we will be leaving. What we did suggest to ensure the area stays a healthy space was to remove and replace any liner within the area and the existing perimeter drainage.    We also noticed within the sump crock there was a corrugated pipe that was being used as a drain system. Because of this, we connected our hydro link to the existing dump pump. The original discharge line was connected to the sewer line, the homeowner had a plumber disconnect that so we could run the line outside and away from the home.

A homeowner in Bethan Beach, DE, was in the process of selling their home when the crawlspace failed inspection. Determined to move forward with the sale, they began researching solutions and reached out to the experts at DryZone to schedule a free inspection.    Our System Design Specialist, Derek, conducted a thorough inspection and discovered that the humidity level in the crawlspace was over 70% significantly higher than the recommended 55% threshold. Derek explained the issues caused by excessive moisture and presented the homeowner with long-term solutions designed to resolve the problem and prevent it from recurring.    The primary components of this crawlspace encapsulation project included CleanSpace, HydroLink, and a SmartSump system. CleanSpace is a heavy-duty 20-mil-thick liner made from a seven-layer blend of materials, including high-density polyethylene for puncture resistance, low-density polyethylene for flexibility, and polyester cord reinforcement for exceptional tear strength. HydroLink helps manage groundwater and moisture movement beneath the liner. The SmartSump is a specialized sump pump system designed specifically for crawlspaces, offering reliable protection from flooding and plumbing leaks.    Thanks to this comprehensive encapsulation system, the Bethan Beach homeowner can now move forward with confidence, knowing the crawlspace is properly protected.

A local antique store noticed sagging floors when a customer pointed out a dip in the hallway. Because this store housed heavy furniture and valuable items, they knew they needed a solution to lift and strengthen the floors. DryZone inspected the crawlspace and took note of high humidity that weakened the floor joists, causing them to sink from heavy-weight items. DryZone installed drainage matting to redirect groundwater into a sump pump while blocking moisture. After this, DryZone installed an I-beam and steel SmartJacks that lift the floor, giving it enough strength to hold furniture and support a constant flow of guests browsing above.
