Crawl Space Repair Experts Serving the Bradford Area

When these homeowners in Bradford called with concerns about mold in their crawl space, we were eager to help. Our Design Specialist drove out to inspect the crawl space and visit with the homeowners about their concerns.

Their main concern was getting rid of the mold and preventing it from coming back. Moisture creates mold, so we needed to eliminate the moisture from their crawl space. Our installation crew would start by treating the affected area with our Mold-X2, a chemical that kills mold and enables you to wipe it away. The next step would be applying Mold-X2 Botanical, treating the wood so mold could not return to the same place. Eliminating the moisture would require the CleanSpace Encapsulation. First, our crew would prep and grade the crawl space, then install Vent Seals to insulate the crawl space from outside air and humidity. The Drainage Matting would be installed directly on the ground, providing a thermal break and puncture resistance. Next, our CleanSpace Liner would be carefully installed above the Drainage Matting to isolate the home from the earth, completely and permanently. A SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier would allow for up to 300 cubic feet of dry air per minute to be moved around the crawl space, drying out support structures and removing humidity from the air.

A wet crawl space will invite mold and rot into your home. Call CrawlSpace Solutions of Arkansas today and get your free crawl space inspection, 1-501-329-4000!

Purchasing a home can be stressful, you may find things the previous owner did aren't up to your standards. That was the case for these homeowners in Bradford. The previous owners had independent contractors make some repairs to the floors because of a water leak, and the job was not completed in the crawl space. Our Design Specialist went out to meet with the new homeowners and inspect their crawl space. 

The Design Specialist recommended our SmartJacks and additional supports for the floor joists. Due to the moisture content, he also recommended a CleanSpace Encapsulation System. The floor joists would be supported by "sistering" additional beams, all of which would be supported by our SmartJacks. SmartJacks are adjustable piers to allow for temperature changes and settling. The crew would then prep and grade the crawl space to allow ground water to run towards the perimeter of the home. The dimpled Drainage Matting would be installed directly on the dirt floor of the crawl space, providing a thermal break and allowing ground water to flow beneath it, preventing puddling and pooling. The vents would be sealed with our SilverGlo Vent Seals to insulate the space from outside air, and our CleanSpace Liner would be installed directly above the Drainage Matting, isolating the home from the earth. 

Our energy star rated SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier would remove up to 100 pints of moisture per day, while moving 300 cubic feet of dry air through the crawl space, drying out the building materials to stop mold and rot. 

This home would be drier, cleaner, healthier, and more structurally sound; from the ground up! Call CrawlSpace Solutions of Arkansas today, 1-501-329-4000!

Residents in Bradford were looking for someone to help them with their crawl space. They had floor joists they were worried about and wanted to get them repaired. When they called CrawlSpace Solutions of Arkansas, our Design Specialist, Jack was more than happy to come out to help them. Jack completed a thorough inspection of the crawl space and made some recommendations to repair their crawl space.

Our installation crew would need to dig footers, 2 ft deep and 2 ft wide for our SmartJacks. SmartJacks are high-capacity adjustable steel pier designed to stop settling. Three metal beams were run the width of the home for additional support, and the existing floor joists were sistered, adding strength, durability, and support. 

To reduce the possibility of moisture weakening the support structures, he also recommended a complete encapsulation with a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to isolate the home from the earth, insulate the space, and remove humidity from the air.
