There was high levels of moisture and very high humidity in their crawl space. They were experiencing warping around their home. They were very interested in a finding out about a crawlspace encapsulation to regulate the humidity and moisture to prevent further damage to their home.

Olympic Restoration Systems was contacted for an assessment of their crawl space. We visited the property and proposed a quote to the customer. They proceeded with a crawl space encapsulation for their home.

This home was for sale back in February 2020. The realtor for the property called Olympic Restoration Systems to come for an assessment of the crawl space to provide options to get rid of the “wet, earthy smell". A potential buyer was considering purchasing the nearly 5000 square foot home. The realtor wanted the overall indoor air quality to be improved for the home. While the home was still on the market, the realtor was provided a quote for an encapsulation of the crawl space. The potential buyers were provided the information during the buying process. Once the family purchased the home, they realized the crawl space was an immediate issue they needed to address. They had a need for installation of electrical components to make the existing sump pump and dehumidifiers work properly, which they had fixed immediatley. After a few months in the home a new problem arose. They noticed that they now had fungus on their wood elements in the crawl space. They called Olympic Restoration Systems back with a need to understand the reason for the fungus growth and wanted a quote to prevent it from returning to their crawl space.

Olympic Restoration Systems was contacted for another assessment of this home. We visited the property for an updated assessment of the home and proposed a quote to the new homeowners. They proceeded with a crawl space encapsulation, debris removal from their crawl space, as well as a radon mitigation system for their new home.

This homeowner called after he noticed a moisture issue in his crawl space that was causing many issues throughout his home. There was a moisture barrier in the crawl space that was ripped and had failed to keep the crawl space dry. We sent one of our System Designs Specialists, Ross, to perform a free crawl space inspection and estimate. Ross found plenty of evidence of moisture in the crawl space, and proposed a solution to keep it dry. The homeowner accepted and proceeded with a full crawl space encapsulation from Olympic Restoration Systems. 

The system included sealing off all outside air to the crawl space, removing debris, regrading the soil, installing a drainage matting beneath a CleanSpace vapor barrier, installing a SmartSump sump pump, and a dehumidifier.
