A homeowner reached out to us when they noticed that water from excess rain was rising from underneath a bedroom in the house, which was causing dampness. Our specialist went out to the home to provide a free estimate and evaluate the situation. Upon his inspection, he found that the homeowner had a crawl space that was not encapsulated. To prevent water vapor from coming inside the crawl space, we installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation System paired with our drainage matting.
Our CleanSpace Encapsulation System is a 20-mil reinforced polymer liner that is a barrier designed to keep water vapor out! It is extremely durable, resistant to wear and tear, and does not support mold growth. The drainage matting gets placed underneath to help enhance the durability and longevity of the CleanSpace Encapsulation System.
Once the job was completed, this homeowner had a dry and healthy crawl space that was sealed off from the earth for good!
Notice in the before photo the visible dampness in this Saddle River, NJ, crawl space - a common ordeal many homeowners face. The unwelcome moisture risked damaging the home's structure and air quality. Enter The Basement Transformer: we tackled the problem head-on by installing CleanSpace, a robust encapsulation system, alongside SilverGlo insulation panels. As seen in the after photo, these solutions not only addressed the dampness but transformed the space into a clean, dry, and energy-efficient area. For homeowners seeking a lasting solution to crawl space woes, we're proud to be the transformative force ensuring a healthier home environment.
A crawl space located in Highland Mills, NY looked like a total disaster. There were cobwebs and dirt everywhere. The old insulation was peeling off the walls and the ceiling. Nothing about this crawl space looked or felt safe, and that’s why this homeowner gave us a call. Our crew knew that our CleanSpace Encapsulation System and Foamax Wall Insulation Panels would be the answer to this homeowner’s problems.
The Foamax Wall Panels went all along the perimeter of the crawl space and the CleanSpace Encapsulation System covered the entirety of the floor.
Unlike typical forms of insulation made from fiberglass, Foamax is waterproof and does not support mold or mildew growth. Foamax is made of polyisocyanurate foam and features a foil vapor barrier on its backside, which reduces condensation and protects against moisture.
The CleanSpace Encapsulation is the perfect waterproofing solution that also provides protection against mold growth and pest infestations. It is a 20-mil reinforced polymer liner with a drainage mat installed underneath, which forms a permanent seal for leaking crawl space floors. This vapor barrier system will ensure that the water stays out and the humidity is under control.
Once our team was done, this homeowner had a safer and dryer crawl space!
A homeowner in Bearsville, NY was concerned about the overall quality of their crawl space. They reached out to our team at The Basement Transformer and made an appointment with our specialist, Mark, for a free estimate. When Mark got out to the property and looked at the crawl space, he proposed that we encapsulate it to turn it into the healthy environment that the homeowner desired it to be.
Our crew installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation System to seal off this dirt crawl space from the earth and to keep the water vapor out! This 20-mil reinforced polymer liner is super durable and resistant to wear and tears as well. Mold cannot grow on the CleanSpace Encapsulation System either because it features built-in antimicrobial protection.
The crawl space became a dry and healthy space once our team was finished with the job!
A homeowner located in New Windsor, NY was having issues with water intrusion inside of their basement. They contacted our company to see how we could help solve this problem.
Our specialist went out to take a look at the basement and determined that both our CleanSpace Wall System and WaterGuard System needed to be installed.
The CleanSpace Wall System is 100% waterproof, made of plastic, and blocks water vapor from passing through your basement walls. It even features built in anti-microbial protection known as UltraFresh, which means mold and mildew are unable to grow on the CleanSpace.
Our WaterGuard System is installed along the perimeter of the basement, with minimal invasion done to your concrete slab. This patented design features large drain openings and a unique shape which makes it resistant to clogs. It also has a wall flange that extends up your basement wall at 3/8". This wall flange allows the water leaking through your walls to be collected and directed right into the WaterGuard System.
With these two products in place, water vapor could not pass through the walls and would be directed into the WaterGuard System.
Once our crew was done, this homeowner could feel at ease knowing their basement was protected from water intrusion.
