Wet Crawl Space in Mayflower, AR
Challenge
This customer in Mayflower, AR called us because there was a moisture problem in the crawl space, and evidence of mold starting to grow. This is a concern for any homeowner who wants to create a healthy home environment- it starts with underneath the floors, so our customer knew he had to call for help.
Solution
The best solution for our customer was to install the CleanSpace® vapor barrier around the perimeter of the crawl space and the floor, to install a drainage matting on the floor, and install a vent cover to keep out as much of the humid air as possible. The team then laid down a dimpled drainage matting over the floor of the crawl space, which would help control the moisture from the dirt floor. Over the top, the CleanSpace® vapor barrier was installed. This barrier was laid seamlessly throughout the crawlspace, and then mechanically fastened to the walls to ensure stability.
Now, our customer has a drier, less humid crawl space, which could now benefit the air condition in his home.
