This crawlspace started out as a large unusable space for the home owner. With this space being over 2,500 square feet and a minimum of 5 feet tall, it would make the ideal space for extra storage for the homeowner. After meeting with the homeowner and listening to their concerns and wants for the space, Crawlspace Doctor presented a plan to create the ideal space to meet the needs, wants and expectations for the homeowner. With this particular project the customer chose the worlds strongest vapor barrier to be placed on the ground for optimal strength and durability. A full encapsulation of the crawlspace was chosen to ensure peak performance to control humidity and to prevent fungal growth for the health of the home. A full water mitigation system was also installed to ensure the crawlspace would be free of any standing water for future. The homeowner wanted to install shelving for small item storage, so Crawlspace Doctor created a plan to build a wooden platform to ensure a sturdy level space for portable shelving and work space for the homeowner. During the initial review of the crawlspace, the door was a small 3x3 metal door installed by the original builder and the customer wanted to have a full-size door to access the space easier. Crawlspace Doctor customized the door size in the brick veneer to a standard exterior door size and installed an exterior steel door, painted to match the other exterior doors of the home.
