Friendly Foundation Repair & Basement Waterproofing Contractor serving Grasonville, MD

Elin L from Gransonville, MD faced a frustrating problem with high humidity in her crawlspace and chilly floors during winter. With the cold season approaching, she sought a solution and contacted the experts at DryZone for a free inspection. During the inspection, our System Design Specialist, Derek, discovered dangling insulation and that the relative humidity exceeded 72%. Such elevated humidity levels can lead to structural damage and promote microbial growth. Derek explained to Elin L that crawlspace encapsulation would be an effective solution to her concerns.

This encapsulation process involves several key components: CleanSpace, SaniDry Sedona, and Mold-X. CleanSpace is a robust 20 mil-thick liner, like a pool liner, constructed from seven layers. It combines high-density polyethylene for puncture resistance, low-density polyethylene for flexibility, and polyester cord reinforcement to resist tearing. The bright white finish of CleanSpace enhances visibility in the crawlspace, allowing for easy detection of any microbial growth, insects, or dirt.

Now, Elin L can relish the comfort of warm floors throughout winter. DryZone is delighted to have resolved her crawlspace issues, ensuring her home remains protected for years to come.

This homeowner was concerned about losing insulation in their home with winter approaching. In order to fix this for them, we had to ensure that the vents were the right height since the house is in a flood zone. We had to block 2 of the vents that were not the right height and install the flood vents around the house. 

Gravel floors in crawl spaces are great for drainage. However, water vapor from groundwater easily goes through the gravel and does little to regulate the humidity under your home. This homeowner knew they needed something to help drain water from the crawl space in rainy seasons, but failed to realize the humidity from groundwater lingers beyond rainy seasons. A result of this constant humidity was starting to show in how the crawl space started to smell. DryZone noticed, during the free inspection, how the humidity was starting to affect the floorboards and cause some signs of microbial growth. To help this homeowner, DryZone installed a vapor barrier to stop the water vapor from groundwater from entering the crawl space and feeding microbial growth. 

The crawl space in Grasonville, MD has an old 6-millimeter liner on the ground of the crawl space with dirt and water covering it. The homeowners would like for this old liner to be removed and products installed to take away the mold smell and water in the crawl space. 

DryZone took a look at the crawl space and suggested that our DryZone team removes the debris on the ground, installs a drainage mat, and interior liner. DryZone's liners are 20 millimeters on the ground and 11 millimeters on the walls. 

The homeowners are happy with the encapsulation of their crawl space!
