Foundation Repair Photo Album: A Nasty, Collapsing Basement In An Early 1900's Home In Payette, ID
In a risk-adverse economy, home sellers have to be diligent about home repairs and showing a 'clean bill of health' for their homes. However, when there's structural and moisture issues, it's hard to convince buyers to buy. That's why these homeowners contacted us. So, to start, we installed SmartJacks©, a support system that can be built with minimal disruption all year round and provides an adjustable build for a custom fit every time. Then, we installed our CleanSpace© crawl space encapsulation, which would vapor-proof their crawl space and lower their home's humidity and energy bills. The results were drastic, and the home sellers were thrilled that, now, they should have a much easier time finding buyers so they themselves can move on to the next chapter of their life.
Before our SmartJack© system and CleanSpace© encapsulation
This nasty crawl space had collapsing support and insulation, allowing moisture to rise to the home and create mold and even wood rot.
After the SmartJack© system and CleanSpace© encapsulation
Now, the crawl space is a safe, clean, and attractive area, trapping unwanted critters and moisture beneath the thick liner - a future home buyer could even use this space for storage.
