Steve S.’ home in Larkspur, CA had become plagued with water pooling and mold growth, causing him frustration and concern. Heavy rain would seep into the crawlspace creating water pools that were the perfect conditions for mold to thrive.
Determined to solve the problem, Steve called the experts at Clean CrawlSpace, who specialize in moisture control, successfully pinpointed the origin of the moisture issue in Steve’s crawlspace. Their experienced installation team arrived and proceeded to dig drainage trenches to gather any lingering water, surrounded by drainage rock. Next, they installed the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier system to encapsulate both the walls and floor of the crawlspace, effectively preventing any moisture from infiltrating. To top it off, a smart sump pump was installed in the lowest area of the crawlspace to efficiently remove any water that may find its way inside and inhibit any future mold problems.
Now, Steve finally enjoys a mold-free home and fully appreciates the beauty of his beloved Larkspur, CA residence once more.
Ryan's situation in his Millbrae, CA, crawlspace was a serious cause for concern and required immediate professional attention. Water creeping up the foundation walls and accumulating in the crawlspace with mud indicated a significant moisture problem that would lead to costly and extensive damage. Standing water weakens the foundation, increasing the risk of cracks, leaks, and structural instability. Mud puts immense pressure on crawl space supports, potentially causing them to rot, warp, or even collapse, compromising the structural integrity of the entire house.
Addressing these issues demanded the moisture experts at Clean Crawlspace who were called in to identify the source of the water intrusion, and recommend a comprehensive solution. This would involve drainage work, redirecting water with trenching and installing SmartSump pumps. Ignoring this issue could have led to exponentially higher repair costs and potential safety hazards down the line. Taking proactive steps now with professional help will ensure the long-term health and safety of Ryan's home and its occupants.
