Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

CleanSpace is a great way to fix those unsightly basement walls, while it's bright white makes great use of available lighting. And because it creates a vapor barrier on the walls, your waterproof basement will be ready for finishing should you decide to upgrade in the future!

CleanSpace is pliable enough to cover uneven surfaces and irregular walls. Additionally, it's a great way to prevent humidity from making its way through your concrete walls and into your basement. 

This homeowner was experiencing a musty smell in his house that he wanted to get rid of. He gave Midwest a call and System Design Specialist, Elliott Christians, came out to meet with him. Elliot found his crawlspace was not encapsulated, which was causing the musty smell to rise into the living area. Elliott proposed we use our CleanSpace, our durable and waterproof encapsulation system to help combat this musty smell and help keep the home safe. Check out the before and after to this project! 

Homeowner Susan M. in Clive, IA was growing tired of the crawl space always being dirty and having bugs and mice in the space. The space has never been sealed off from the outside, so she was ready to make the space feel cleaner and brighter. Having used Midwest in the past, she didn’t hesitate to give us a call again.

Service Technician Brandon Roast went out to Susan’s home. He performed a thorough inspection of the crawl space. It was dark and the plastic lining had many holes in it. The crew encapsulated the space with CleanSpace and sealed up all the seams and tops to make sure the space was useable, and nothing could get in the crawl space again. Susan was very impressed with the quality of work and how well the crew worked together.

Robert B. started to notice that the floors in the crawl space were sagging, and that doors and windows were not closing properly. Not wanting the problem to get worse, he decided to seek out a solution right away. After having Midwest come out to do other work, he felt comfortable in having us come back out.

We sent Service Technician Michael Holtz out to Robert’s home. Robert had already braced the crawl space but was ready to finish the job. The crew installed SmartJacks to support the crawl space and the sagging floors. Then also insulated the crawl space with SilverGlo helping the space become energy efficient. Robert was happy that we were able to create a permanent solution.
