Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This crawl space was suffering from chronic moisture intrusion, exposed soil, and deteriorating insulation. The block walls showed staining and signs of long-term humidity issues, and the unsealed ground allowed odors, mold risk, and temperature fluctuations to rise into the living space. The environment was inefficient, uncomfortable, and potentially damaging to the home’s structure.

Using our CleanSpace Encapsulation System, we transformed this crawl space into a clean, bright, and protected environment. The durable vapor barrier now seals off the earth and walls, preventing moisture intrusion and creating a controlled, energy-efficient space. The result is a healthier home, improved air quality, and long-term protection against mold, humidity, and structural decay.

When this homeowner in Buffalo, MN reached out to us, they were tired of dealing with a cold, musty crawl space that made their home feel less comfortable and energy efficient. They wanted a cleaner, healthier environment and a long-term solution that would protect their home from moisture and mold.

After inspecting the crawl space, we recommended our CleanSpace Encapsulation System, a reliable, durable solution designed to completely seal off the crawl space from outside elements. We installed a heavy-duty CleanSpace vapor barrier along the floors and walls of the crawl space, creating a bright, clean look while locking out moisture, drafts, and unwanted pests.

Benefits of CleanSpace Encapsulation:

• Improved Energy Efficiency: By sealing the crawl space, we helped reduce drafts and heat loss, making the home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.

• Better Air Quality: Encapsulation helps prevent mold, mildew, and allergens from entering the living space.

• Protection Against Moisture Damage: CleanSpace keeps moisture out, which helps prevent wood rot, rusted HVAC components, and structural damage.

• Increased Storage Potential: The clean, dry space can now safely be used for storage.

• Peace of Mind: With the crawl space sealed and protected, the homeowner no longer has to worry about hidden moisture problems beneath their home.

Now this homeowner is happy with the space, her air quality, and her energy use. Win-WIn.

This crawl space was ready for a makeover. It was full of debris and exposed to the bare ground. This allowed pests as well as cold and damp air to enter the home. The conditions were far from ideal, and the homeowner knew something had to change to protect their home and improve energy efficiency.

We gave this crawl space a total upgrade with our CleanSpace Encapsulation System. The result? A sealed, moisture-resistant barrier that transforms the space into a clean, dry, and more functional part of the home. Not only does it help keep floors warmer, but it also protects the foundation and improves indoor air quality.

When customers call us about their crawl space, they often complain about the musty smells, poor indoor air quality and cold floors.  That is exactly the problem our customer in Excelsior, MN was experiencing.  They remembered us when we addressed his foundation walls made only one call to address their crawl space needs.

This is a common problem that can be repaired with the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System.  This simple system will enclose your crawl space and create a dry usable space.  The vapor barrier is installed on the dirt floor and on the walls.
