It's popular to lay down thin (around 6 mil) plastic on crawl space floors. However, thin plastic is ruined if someone crawls on it, and it certainly won't last as long as the house does.
For the same reason, this homeowner decided to replace their plastic lining and insulation with our solution—CleanSpace with SilverGlo.
CleanSpace is a 20 mil thick plastic liner that is fitted to your crawl space and is incredibly durable. In fact, it will stay where you install it, and last as long as your home does. Paired with Silverglo—our crawl space insulation product created with superior polystyrene foam with graphite material—this makes it the ultimate energy savings duo! The homeowner felt this was the right solution for them, and the results were amazing. Take a look for yourself!
Before our encapsulation, this homeowner's crawl space insulation was soaked through and trapping moisture in the crawl space. To fix it, we replaced the insulation with our specialized crawl space foamboard insulation SilverGlo. It's a 2" foamboard infused with graphite for top notch R-value per inch, and its radiant barrier reflects heat back into the home for superior energy savings. From there, we encapsulated the crawl space with our heavy, thick 20 mil CleanSpace liner, which includes antimicrobial protection and a 25-year warranty against rips and tears. This home is now better protected against moisture than ever before.
A client called in wanting his floors releveled due to bowing. To permanently lift and stabilize the home's beams, we installed the SmartJack system which addresses weak foundation soil by transferring the weight of the home to heavy-duty steel columns.
In Willow Alaska, a homeowner desperately needed to repair the sinking foundation of her home. By calling Foundation and Crawl Space Repair, she was given a solution to stabilize her house. Our team installed Helical Piers to support the foundation using a standard bracket. They also installed Push Piers to support the foundation. The placement of SmartJacks and a supplemental beam will support the floor joist system above. The home is now secure and Foundation and Crawl Space Repair made another homeowner happy!
