Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Support System & Encapsulation in Fayetteville, NC
This gallery showcases a comprehensive crawl space repair project that utilized multiple advanced systems to ensure a dry, stable, and healthy environment for the homeowner. SmartJack Support System: We installed the SmartJack support system to correct sagging floors and provide long-term stability to the crawl space. The SmartJacks were strategically placed to lift and support the floor joists, restoring the structural integrity of the home. CleanSpace Drainage Matting: To enhance drainage and prevent water pooling, we laid down CleanSpace drainage matting across the crawl space floor. This matting channels water towards the drainage system, reducing moisture buildup and potential damage. CleanSpace Vapor Barrier: A durable CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed to cover the crawl space floor and walls. This heavy-duty liner prevents moisture from seeping in, protecting the space from mold growth and wood rot while improving overall air quality. Interior Drainage System: An interior drainage system was installed to manage any water that enters the crawl space. This system collects and directs water to the sump pump, ensuring efficient water removal and preventing water damage. TripleSafe Sump Pump: The TripleSafe sump pump was installed as the heart of the water management system. With its three pumps, it provides reliable protection against flooding, even during power outages, ensuring the crawl space remains dry. SilverGlo Thermal Wall Insulation: SilverGlo thermal wall insulation was added to improve energy efficiency and maintain consistent temperatures in the crawl space. This insulation helps reduce heating and cooling costs while providing a more comfortable living environment. Sanidry Sedona Dehumidifier: To control humidity levels and prevent mold growth, a Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier was installed. This high-performance dehumidifier ensures the crawl space remains dry and healthy, contributing to better indoor air quality throughout the home. Together, these systems create a comprehensive solution that addresses moisture control, structural stability, and energy efficiency, providing the homeowner with a dry, stable, and healthy crawl space.

Joist Damage
Moisture caused the floor joists to weaken and sag, compromising the structural integrity of the home. This damage was addressed by installing the SmartJack support system, which provided necessary lift and stability to restore the floors to their proper level.
SmartJack System
The SmartJack support system repaired the sagging floor by providing strategic support to the floor joists. The SmartJacks were installed beneath the joists, lifting and stabilizing them to restore the structural integrity of the home. This system effectively corrected the sagging floors and ensured long-term stability for the crawl space.
Sump System
The TripleSafe sump pump is a critical component of the water management system installed in this crawl space. It features three pumps: a primary pump for regular water removal, a secondary pump for backup during high water volumes or primary pump failure, and a battery-operated pump for use during power outages. This system ensures reliable protection against flooding, keeping the crawl space dry and preventing water damage.
Thermal Insulation
SilverGlo thermal wall insulation is a high-performance insulation material added to the crawl space walls to improve energy efficiency and maintain consistent temperatures. This insulation helps reduce heating and cooling costs, making the living environment more comfortable and energy-efficient.
Drainage Matting
CleanSpace drainage matting is a special material laid on the crawl space floor to improve drainage. It channels water towards the drainage system, preventing water from pooling and reducing moisture buildup. This helps protect the crawl space from potential damage.
Vapor Barrier
The CleanSpace vapor barrier is a strong, durable liner installed on the crawl space floor and walls. It prevents moisture from entering the space, protecting it from mold growth and wood rot, and improving the air quality.
Dehumidifier
We installed the Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier in the crawl space to control humidity levels and prevent mold growth. This helps keep the space dry and healthy, improving the overall air quality in the home.
