Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Dakota County resident received the Five Star Rated book that lists qualified contractors serving area residents and Mark S. of Farmington, MN contacted Complete Basement Systems about his leaky crawl space.  

A free estimate was scheduled with Mark to meet with our system design specialist to look at the troubled crawl space and determine a solution for him.  

A CleanSpace liner that protects the vapor transmission and water from the concrete block in the crawl space to prevent mold and standing water was installed along with a drainage matting liner underneath the CleanSpace to channel any water seepage into a smartdrain that was installed to collect the water. 

Our customer can now utilize his concrete crawl space for added storage space in his home and have peace of mind that his items are protected.  

This Bloomington, MN homeowner knew something wasn’t right with her crawlspace. Cold drafts were creeping into her home, the space stayed damp year-round, and she worried about moisture leading to mold, odors, and higher energy bills. Like many crawlspaces in Minnesota, it was exposed to outside air and ground moisture, problems that worsen over time if left unaddressed.

We transformed her crawlspace with a full CleanSpace encapsulation system, sealing it off from moisture and outside air. The durable liner now creates a clean, dry, and controlled environment that helps protect the home above it. No more drafts, no more damp conditions, just long-term peace of mind. Best of all, the CleanSpace system is designed to last and is backed by a guarantee, ensuring dependable results for years to come.

If you’re dealing with a drafty, damp crawlspace, this Bloomington project shows how the right solution can make a lasting difference. Our team specializes in proven systems that protect your home, improve comfort, and add long-term value, starting from the ground up.

The homeowner in Edina had a crawl space beneath their home that was damp, musty, and causing the floors of the main level to be cold. Moisture was creeping in from the ground and perimeter, causing humid air to rise into the living areas. They noticed a faint musty odor, occasional pest signs, cold (or uneven) floors above, and worried about wood rot, mold and structural issues.
They called you because they wanted to turn that crawl space from a liability into a clean, healthy space.

After our CleanSpace encapsulation, the crawl space is now fully sealed: a heavy-duty vapor barrier has been applied to the floor and walls, vents have been sealed, and any necessary drainage or dehumidification systems have been installed. The result: no more humid air intrusion, no musty smell, improved indoor air quality. The homeowners notice more comfortable floors, fewer hidden pests, and lower humidity under the house. The crawl space is now usable for storage and the home’s value and structural health are better protected.

This Edina, MN homeowner had a crawlspace that was completely exposed to the earth. The dirt floor, scattered debris, and unsealed walls allowed moisture, cold air, and musty odors to move freely into the home above. The space offered no protection against humidity or heat loss, and the homeowner was beginning to notice the effects, uneven temperatures, higher energy bills, and that familiar crawlspace smell.

After encapsulating the crawlspace, the transformation is dramatic. The area is now lined with CleanSpace vapor barrier, sealing off the ground and walls to create a clean, bright, and moisture-controlled environment. The new encapsulation helps protect the home from humidity, improves overall air quality, and enhances energy efficiency. This Edina, MN crawlspace is now a dry, healthy, and well-protected part of the home, exactly as it should be.

Justin P. of Minneapolis found Complete Basement Systems online.  He was looking to get an estimate to insulate and fix up the crawl space in him home.  

Our System design specialist met with the homeowner to inspect the crawl space and basement of his home to see the best products that would accomplish his goals. 

The solution involved encapsulating the crawl space with our CleanSpace Liner to seal off the dirt floor from the earth vapors that cause water transmission, odors and such.  We also installed a SmartDrain to collect any water flowing below the CleanSpace and Drainage Matting installed.
