3 Pros Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This before/after picture series shows an "Everlast" crawl space access door that we install during a crawl space encapsulation. It's made of polypropylene plastic so its durable and will not rot away. It's installed with weatherstriping and hand tightened wing nuts keep it in place and air tight.  Easy to remove and light weight too. 

This crawl space was filthy! Insulation rotting off, debris everywhere, and the air was damp and mildewy. We installed our CleanSpace system to waterproof it, and filled any vented holes that were letting outside air or critters into the space.

This basement in Centreville VA was often too cold in the winter and too hot in the summers.  The foundation walls were poorly insulated and the rim joists of the home were uninsulated, allowing external air and temperatures to impact the feel inside the basement.  In addition to other work we performed in their attic, we applied Spray Foam Insulation to the open rim joists at the top of the walls.  This would help to air seal the basement and keep external air and temperatures from effecting the air inside.  

This Manassas VA home had a damp and cold crawl space with unwanted pests and cold floors above.  Open vents allowed external air, dust and allergens into the crawl space which lead to poor air quality in the home.  Installing insulation panels to the walls, using Zyp Foam to seal up the panels and control the air flow into the space and covering the wet, dirt floors would all contribute to a better conditioned environment and improvement to the air quality and energy efficiency of the home.  

We removed the old insulation, dirty plastic covering the dirt floors and moisture from the air.  This crawl space is now clean and dry with no musty smells or excessive moisture in the air.
