To resolve the homeowner’s issues with hydrostatic pressure and standing water in the crawlspace, we began by removing all compromised insulation to prepare the space for treatment and repair. We then applied a hydrogen peroxide solution to sanitize the area and eliminate any microbial growth. To address water intrusion, we installed a drainage pipe system leading to a sump pump basin equipped with a 1/3 HP sump pump and a discharge line to efficiently redirect water away from the foundation. We encapsulated the entire crawlspace with a heavy-duty 23 mil floor liner to create a durable, moisture-resistant barrier. To control humidity and improve air quality, a high-efficiency dehumidifier was installed. We also custom-built a sealed crawlspace door to further prevent outside moisture and air intrusion. Finally, we upgraded the HVAC system in the crawlspace by installing new supply and return lines, as well as replacing all register runs and register boots to ensure optimal airflow and energy efficiency. This comprehensive solution fully addressed the moisture issues and significantly improved the home's structural and environmental health.

To resolve the homeowner's concerns and provide a long-term solution for leveling the floors, we installed steel beams beneath the home to add critical structural support. These beams were strategically placed to distribute the weight of the home evenly and reduce stress on the existing framing. In conjunction with the steel beams, we installed PowerPost Floor Supports to lift and stabilize the sagging areas, allowing for precise adjustments and improved floor leveling. This combination of steel reinforcement and adjustable supports ensured a durable and effective solution, restoring both the stability and comfort of the living space.

To address the homeowner's concerns, we implemented a comprehensive solution to restore structural integrity and prevent future issues. First, we installed PowerPost Floor Supports to stabilize and lift the sagging areas of the framing system. To further reinforce the structure, a steel beam was added, providing long-term support and improved load distribution. In addition, we installed an R-5 Insulated Encapsulation System with a durable 23-mil floor liner to control moisture and enhance energy efficiency in the crawl space. As a final step, we performed soda blasting to remove debris, mold, and other contaminants from the framing and crawl space surfaces, ensuring a clean and healthy environment beneath the home. This multi-step approach provided lasting stability, protection, and peace of mind for the homeowner.

To effectively resolve the homeowner’s concerns, we began by treating the affected areas with soda blasting to remove the moderate fungal growth from the framing system safely and thoroughly. To prevent future moisture issues and mold recurrence, we installed a high-performance encapsulation system featuring a durable 23 mil floor liner, creating a sealed barrier against ground moisture. We also added a commercial-grade dehumidifier to maintain proper humidity levels within the space. To further reinforce the structural integrity of the home, we installed steel beams and PowerPost floor supports, ensuring long-term stability and support for the framing system. This comprehensive approach not only eliminated the existing fungal growth but also safeguarded the home against future moisture and structural concerns.
