Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Joist and Beam Replacement With Encapsulation in Anchorville, MI
This homeowner contacted HomeSpec to get another estimate for his crawl space issues. He was having problems with the support in his crawl space - beams and joists - and as a result, the floors above were sagging. During the inspection, severe moisture was also discovered in the crawl space.
To solve these problems, HomeSpec first installed new beams and SmartJack Support Posts to reinforce the support and lift the floors back up. To solve the moisture issues, we encapsulated the crawl space with a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to seal off the walls and floor.
Now the floors in the home no longer sag, and the crawl space no longer suffers from moisture intrusion.
