Professional Foundation Repair in Tangier, VA

After 12 years of living in their home, the homeowners decided they wanted to know what was going on under their home in their crawl space. They heard through a friend that DryZone did an excellent job with crawl spaces, which is why they contacted us about their crawl space problem. DryZone installed a dehumidifier, SunHouse window cover, wall liners, and a water drainage mat. 

The inspection took place in April with a fair bit of moisture in the air. This is a perfect breeding ground for mold to start growing. This explains why the insulation started falling over time. As the insulation starts to fall from the top of the crawlspace, little heat is on the floor of the home. With that being said, DryZone installed a dehumidifier, SunHouse window cover, wall liners, and a water drainage mat. 

Now the homeowners in Tangier, VA are happy with the outcome of their crawl space and look forward to warm floors and a mold free home! 

This home in Tangier, VA had a mold issue in their crawl space that started to become a serious problem. Once they could smell the mold throughout the first level of their home, the homeowners became were concerned with their health and decided that calling DryZone for an inspection was the best idea for them. During the humid summers, humidity becomes an issue for basements and crawl spaces. This crawl space, in particular, was starting to grow mold because of the humidity and moisture. 

DryZone inspected the property and came up with a solution for the homeowners. Our DryZone team talked to the homeowners about installing a dehumidifier, wall liners, fixing the fiberglass insulation, and installing a water drainage mat. The Tangier, Virginia homeowners were more than pleased with the idea. 

The dehumidifier will help control the moisture in the crawl space, which ultimately keeps the mold out of the crawl space. The drainage mat and wall liners will maintain the water leakage. After the installment, there will not be water damage in the crawl space for years to come. 

The beautiful home in Tangier, Virginia only had one problem, their crawl space. They contacted DryZone in the hope of some help and a thorough inspection. Our DryZone team took a close look at the property and came up with an immediate solution to rescue the crawl space. 

Years of moisture in the crawl space caused mold to grow and fiberglass insulation to fill up and fall. This is a common problem in crawl spaces and DryZone knew just how to fix this. The inspection took place in September, a month that typically has low humidity. As you can see from the photos, the insulation started to fall from the top of the crawl space and on to the floor because the insulation could not hold up any more moisture. DryZone came up with a solution to install SilverGlo insulation.

The SilverGlo is a wonderful product to use in crawl spaces because it will keep the crawl space temperature the same as the inside of the home. Controlling the temperature in the crawl space helps control the moisture in the air, which ultimately keeps mold out of the clean crawl space area. The homeowners wanted to keep the crawl space dry ALL the time, which is why we decided to install the TripleSafe Sump Pump with a water watch alarm. This way the sump pump will keep water out of the crawlspace and will alert the homeowners if there is a water problem of any kind.

After the debris was removed and the wall liner, TripleSafe sump pump, water drainage mats were installed the crawl space looked like a completely different space and the homeowners were more than pleased with their new clean space.
