Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation in Ormond Beach, Florida
Todd in Ormond Beach, Florida, reached out to us at LRE Foundation Repair, reporting high humidity levels inside his home. He suspected that the crawl space below might be trapping moisture and asked us to conduct a thorough inspection. One of our expert Design Specialists carefully examined the crawl space and quickly noticed that the wooden floor joists showed signs of rotting due to moisture damage. The specialist informed Todd of the potential danger of mold growth in the crawl space without proper protection and created a plan to have our team install the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System. This comprehensive solution involves sealing the entire crawl space with a waterproof vapor barrier to protect against moisture damage, safeguarding the support structure and preventing mold growth. Additionally, a specialized dehumidifier was installed to maintain clean, dry air in the space year-round, helping to reduce humidity levels inside the home. Our team installed the CleanSpace system, and upon completion, Todd was relieved to know that his crawl space was now effectively safeguarded against moisture damage.
