Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

One thing homeowners Mike & Kathy never considered was how important a secure crawlspace door was for their crawlspace. Not only does it protect their foundation from the elements like excess moisture and flooding and prevent critters from moving in, but it also allows homeowners an opportunity to know right away if something isn't right under their home. Cantey Crew to the rescue making sure this Columbia, SC home stays safe and energy effiecent for years to come. 

Geneva of Columbia, SC, knew her crawl space was exposed to the dirt and vulnerable to moisture, especially with all the summer heat and humidity. When your crawl space is exposed and moisture is able to enter, the wood can start to rot and the humidity levels provide an environment for mold and dust mites to thrive. Cantey's CleanSpace encapsulates the crawl space to protect it from this environment and a dehumidifier with a drainage system helps to keep the moisture out and the energy bills lower. This also ensures the space is clean and free of mold, dust mites and critters. 

Jonathan R. called Cantey about Issues with his home being unusually humid inside. He told us that he had been constantly sick for a little over a month when the rain season started in Columbia. We asked him if he had any inspections done before and he said he had not, but this was never a problem for him before. After we inspected his crawlspace, we found mold and very damp soil under his home. Few people know whether they have mold under their house or not, but the only way you can know for sure, is if you have a Cleanspace or not. We changed out his Dehumidifier that was almost as old as the house was, cleaned out all signs of mold and encapsulated his crawlspace with our Cleanspace so the mold would never come back. After only a week, he said he lost his cough and stuffy nose. "I almost forgot what it was like to breathe clean air without going outside," said Jonathan. "I didn't think I was ever going to get over that."
