Encapsulated Crawlspace in Galesburg, IL

Challenge

Rodger and Kathleen B. of Galesburg, IL decided to get a free estimate from MidAmerica Basement Systems for their damp, musty, smelly crawlspace. The humidity and odors being released from the space warranted the call.

Solution

MidAmerica Basement Systems Design specialist Fred Romane met with Rodger and Kathleen. When they met, Fred listened as Rodger and Kathleen described what they wanted to see accomplished in their space. Then, Fred conducted a thorough investigation of the inside and outside of the home. Upon inspection, Fred noted that the space was indeed pretty damp. Fred recommended having the crawlspace encapsulated. 

Foreman Kyle McCarty and his team came out to install the project. They installed CleanSpce Drainage Matting, and CleanSpace encapsulated the space. Kyle's team also installed two SmartSumps, and also used insulation products to trap heat. CleanSpace Drainage Matting is designed to direct water toward the SmartSump Sump Pumps. CleanSpace, a thick, pool liner-like corded material traps moisture and odors. 

Rodger and Kathleen are very happy now that their home does not carry a musty smell, and their crawlspace is dry!
