Irving, TX's Devoted Basement Waterproofing Company

Water leaks in this crawl space created several areas of standing water and very high humidity. Concerned with the mold risk and impact on the home, the homeowners contacted our team.

We installed EZ Flow pipes connecting to two SmartSump pump systems. We also installed the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system to help with moisture drainage and to seal out humidity from the soil. Finally, we installed three SaniDry Sedona dehumidifiers.

During a master bathroom remodel, these homeowners discovered mold growth. They contacted us to help. First, we set up a containment area, with negative air scrubbers. We removed the affected materials, using an EPA registered antimicrobial and HEPA vacuum to remove the mold. These homeowners can now finish their remodel without worrying about mold. 

After speaking to his neighbor who had our system, this homeowner became concerned about humidity issues in his crawl space and contacted our team to evaluate. Our specialist discovered high humidity in the crawl space and recommended encapsulation. First, we removed the debris and regraded the crawl space. A sump pump was installed, along with a dehumidifier. Two wireless sensors were placed to send temperature and humidity readings to a small panel inside the house. Next, CleanSpace Drainage matting was installed and a CleanSpace liner was placed on top. Silverglo insulation was fastened along the inside perimeter of the entire crawl space. Afterward, the vents were closed to ensure no more moisture or condensation were allowed to penetrate the crawl space. 

These homeowners prepared for a complete floor remodel due to their buckling and cupping floors. The owners decided encapsulation was the best way to protect their new flooring.

First, our team re-graded the crawl space. Next, we installed an EZ flow pipe around the perimeter of the crawl space to capture incoming water and direct it to the sump pump. Afterward, we installed a SmartSump pump system with liner, cast iron pump, CleanPump Stand, airtight lid with an airtight floor drain and WaterWatch alarm system. CleanSpace drainage matting and a CleanSpace vapor barrier were placed along the ground, walls, and piers.
