Best Way To Fix Your Wet Crawl Space!

Показать описание
The rainy season is upon us! We are getting bombarded right now with wet crawl space calls, and ''I got standing water in my crawl space'' calls, and in our most recent project video, I am going to take you all through the steps, on the best way to fix your wet crawl space!

This homeowner had already hired another business to fix his wet crawl space problems. Along with some foundation repair work, he had also hired the contractor to perform a french drain install inside his crawl space, as well a sump pump drainage basin, sump pump, and outside discharge line installation.

I was contacted by the homeowner on the third day of work, just after he had fired the original company he hired. Everything he was told and sold, as you too are about to see, was far from what was actually taking place!

Once we performed the full crawl space clean out, we then had to remove all of the falling, drenched crawlspace insulation. After all of that itchy mess was gone, we then had to remove all of the bs work, that the wannabe foundation repair company had done.

Once we were at a clean slate, aka starting point, we installed our full inside crawl space perimeter french drain system, our drainage fabric, almost 16,000 pounds of drainage gravel, two basins, two sump pumps, two discharge lines, and a brand new 6 mil crawl space ground vapor barrier. I also installed two moisture sensors to tell my buddy Jeff his humidity levels inside his crawl space. That way, he can see what they are now, as opposed to what they would be with our full crawl space encapsulation service, and our crawl space dehumidifier system.

Now that the water in crawl space is no longer a concern, we can begin directing our focus onto the floor repair work that needs performed, in order to strengthen, and support all of the existing floor joists within the crawl space!

So until the next one, this is tanner flowers, and I'm signing off!

Thanks to you and your videos I was able to repair and fix my dad's crawl space on a home he purchased. I removed 22 fifty five drum liner bags of just trash and debris from under the home. This home was moved form one location and put on a lake lot community back in 1957. The footers under this home on the front was not level but tiered down eight inch's per tier so I was 24 inch's deep at the front of the home. I had my electrican light the entire space before I started the hard stuff. I dug out a interior drain with a chipping hammer and a army shovel because of how low the home was on the the back and back right side and the rock i had to bust out was crazy. Shorty story long is that I had two install two pumps and cans and it took me around a two months to complete the job. I closed off all the foundation vents except one where I installed a vent with a fan and built in thermastat and commercial dehumidifer. I encapsulated the entire crawl space and it has made 100% change in the home. I did my on mold treatment and replaced all the insulation. this was one big ass job for one man for sure but it makes me smile everytime I open that crawlspace door!!!
Thanks for your experience and know how!!!

After 3 years of worring about my crap crawl space in a row of townhouses youve given me hope . its always damp in there and when we had the final inspection the crawlnspace had 3 feet of water in it . finally looking at a drain to help move the water or at least I'll dig down and see how bad the water is .

Bud your tips are gold I wish you could do my basement in Ontario, while digging my trenches and sump pit in my crawl space I hitted a bedrock and that was just 1ft deep below the dirt. The house was build on a big ass rock... Keep on the good work.

I need you in Houston! I know zero about this and this is my first pier and beam home ever. My wood floors are warping and lo and behold, not a stitch of vapor barrier underneath. I don't know who to trust here!
