This home in Chestertown is located close to the Chester River. Known for being beautiful and pristine and also for the high moisture content in the soil. This older home was built with the open vent crawl space system with a dirt floor. Allowing the humid air to stay in the crawl space and moist air to rise from the ground. Over time this helps to create an environment for mold to grow and thrive and then causing the wood in the crawl space to rot. When you start to notice sagging floors then you know you already have problem. Eventually, the floors might even give way causing larger issues. The fix for this is to sister the joists or to replace with a new beam. Once we have added the new beam we will then support the new beam and the original floor with SmartJacks. Because they are not made of organic material mold will not break down the SmartJacks. The best protection that you can have against wood rot is to encapsulate your crawl space and then use a dehumidifier. This will ensure that mold will no longer grow in the crawl space.

Encapsulating the crawl space was important to this homeowner. However, after calling a company to do the work, they informed her the crawl space was too short to work on or become a problem in the future. She knew she needed to do something to keep her feet from being so cold in the winter. As winter got closer, she knew she needed another company to take a look and see if an encapsulation could be done, despite the crawl space being so short. DryZone came to look at her home and said they could keep her feet warm and protect the floors from moisture damage. After encapsulating and adding a dehumidifier, the crawl space was protected for a long time.
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.
High humidity can be the source of larger problems in a crawl space. It can affect the foundation, invite insects, and feed microbial growth. This Barclay, MD homeowner wanted to stop any of these problems before they started in his new home. A dehumidifier was installed in the crawl space to keep humidity down. For humidity to truly be controlled, the crawl space has to be completely sealed from the outside. Without doing this, the dehumidifier works twice as hard trying to take humidity out of an area that is constantly filling with vapor from outside. A strong vapor barrier and a sealant for the rim joists of a crawl space blocks any airways that could allow air and vapor into your home.
A full basement can be used for many things. For this Crumpton, MD homeowner, the basement served as an office and bonus storage room. One day this homeowner came to the basement and noticed a horizontal crack in the painted block foundation which led to streaks of water stains over time.

Cracks in the foundation of this Ingleside, MD home allowed large amounts of water to enter the basement. Soon enough, the basement became a constant flood zone, and the homeowner was unable to use this large space. DryZone suggested a french drain was the first step to making this home useable. When the water flows through the trench drain and into a sump pump, there are no more constant puddles on the floor. After covering the walls with CleanSpace to seal the basement and guide water into the french drain below, the basement is completely waterproof.
Crawl space moisture can negatively affect the people living in a home. This Queen Anne, MD family had a son that was allergic to mold and microbial growth, so their priority was keeping him safe. DryZone did mold remediation underneath the home before encapsulating. With an encapsulation and dehumidifier, the home is blocked from moisture and microbial growth has nothing to feed on to live.
After inheriting this home, this Queenstown, MD homeowner knew he needed to make some necessary changes to the basement. After one too many floods, it was clean it needed a french drain and strong sump pump. DryZone added a perimeter drain and a CleanSpace vapor barrier to help in collecting moisture.
Crawl Space vents were installed with regulating humidity in mind. However, because humid air rises, moist air would enter this crawl space through the vents and increase humidity instead of regulating it. After noticing microbial growth in the home, this homeowner called DryZone to seal the vents and any other airways that allowed moisture into the home. DryZone suggested sealing the vents with a foam board to ensure a proper seal. After sealing the vents, DryZone covered other areas of the sill plate that allowed air to flow in with spray foam. Now the crawl space is sealed from outside air!
After one too many tripping hazards were noticed around the pool, this Centreville, MD homeowner called the concrete lifting and leveling experts at DryZone. DryZone injected a hardening and waterproof foam underneath the concrete pool deck to lift it to its original pour height. After lifting, the seams of the concrete were sealed with a waterproof sealant to protect the ground underneath from washing away any further.
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.
