Crawl Space Encapsulation in Granville, Vermont | Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems
Challenge
This Granville, Vermont, home had a crawl space with moisture concerns, exposed ground areas, loose liner material, debris, and humidity issues. These conditions can make a crawl space damp, unpleasant, and difficult to maintain. When a crawl space is not properly encapsulated, moisture from the ground can rise into the space and affect the air, insulation, floor framing, and comfort of the home above. The homeowner needed a solution that would help control ground moisture and reduce humidity. Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems inspected the crawl space to identify the source of the moisture concerns and determine the best way to improve the area. The team reviewed the ground conditions, foundation walls, existing liner material, insulation, air quality concerns, and available drainage or drying needs.
Solution
Northern Basement Systems inspected the crawl space to identify the source of the moisture concerns and determine the best way to improve the area. The team reviewed the ground conditions, foundation walls, existing liner material, insulation, air quality concerns, and available drainage or drying needs. The inspection showed that the crawl space needed a durable encapsulation system along with humidity control to help create a cleaner and more stable environment. Northern Basement Systems installed the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system across the crawl space floor and walls. This helped isolate the home from the exposed earth and create a cleaner, brighter surface throughout the crawl space. To further manage moisture, the team installed a SaniDry dehumidifier. The dehumidifier helps remove excess humidity from the air and works with the encapsulation system to keep the crawl space drier and better controlled.
- CleanSpace Encapsulation System: A durable crawl space liner designed to cover the ground and walls, helping separate the home from earth moisture while creating a cleaner and brighter space.
- SaniDry Dehumidifier: Installed to help control crawl space humidity and reduce damp air beneath the home.
- Crawl Space Moisture Control System: The combination of encapsulation and dehumidification helps create a more controlled crawl space environment.
The crawl space is now cleaner, brighter, and better protected from moisture. The CleanSpace liner helps separate the home from the ground, while the SaniDry dehumidifier helps manage humidity in the air. This upgrade gives the homeowner a more dependable crawl space system and helps reduce the moisture concerns that were present before the repair. Northern Basement Systems helped this Granville, Vermont, homeowner improve their crawl space with CleanSpace encapsulation and a SaniDry dehumidifier. By addressing both ground moisture and humidity, the team created a cleaner, drier, and healthier crawl space environment beneath the home.
