Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Marshall VA Crawl Space Waterproofing and Sump Pump Installation

This crawl space in Marshall VA was cold, wet, musty and had standing water due to a failed sump pump. The crawl space had open air vents that allowed outdoor temperatures, humidity and air to impact the air and temperature inside. This was all making the rooms above cold and uncomfortable. The homeowner called us to see if we could help make the rooms above the crawl space warmer during the colder times of the year. Our Basement and Crawl Space Expert Pedro went out to visit with the home owner and found a solution to help fix everything. Installation of a new sump pump, Clean Space matting to help cover the dirt floors and keep the moisture controlled, sealing up the crawl space vents, wrapping the foundation pillars and walls of the space and installing an air tight Everlast Crawl Space door would all be what was needed to address the issues and fix the cold floors above.
