Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Water Puddles and Pebbles in the Crawl Space in Evansville, IN
In Evansville, IN, a homeowner found water in his crawl space and decided it was time to waterproof it before it became a bigger problem in the future. The crawl space's floor consisted of small pebbles and water puddles. The water sitting in the crawl space and the humidity created a musty smell in his house. If the issue was not dealt with, over time mold will develop. It was urgent to get his home back to smelling great and his home healthier!
A dimple matting is placed over the pebbles to provide protection for the CleanSpace that is installed next. If dimple mating was not used, then the pebbles would have made small punctures in the CleanSpace liner over time if someone were to go down and move around. A SmartSump pump is installed to pump away water that enters the crawl space and carries it away from the home. A SaniDry Sedona is hooked up to create a dry airflow throughout the space. The homeowner was relieved to not have a musty smell in his home anymore.
