Crawl Space Repair in North Florida

Before

A crawl space can be a tricky environment in Northern Florida. A crawl space in these areas deals with elevated levels of relative humidity in the summer months and cold air in the winter.

A vented or unconditioned dirt or concrete crawlspace under a home creates an unhealthy, destructive, and energy wasting environment. The earth contains very high levels of humidity in the soil, and this water vapor moves up into the crawl space and continues upwards into the home environment.

These damp or wet crawl space environments are unhealthy and destructive - where mold grows and spreads by sending out microscopic airborne spores that rise into the upstairs with the natural upward flow of air. Also, as moist air is more difficult to heat or cool, heating and cooling costs are higher, especially if your crawl space is vented. Insects and critters thrive in damp crawlspaces. Rot and decay occur in these damp environments as well, causing structural damage to the organic materials, in particular the wood flooring system.

A crawl space only needs to be damp to be unhealthy.

In a house the natural air flow is from bottom to top. This "stack effect" (so called because of its similarity to a chimney) draws humid air and everything in including odors and mold spores, upward into the living areas of the home, creating an unhealthy environment. Many home allergens are caused from mold spores and dust mites, both of which thrive in environments with elevated levels of relative humidity.

The solution is the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System. CleanSpace is only available through CleanSpace of North Florida, the authorized Basement Systems' dealer in the northeastern Florida area serving Jacksonville, Orlando, Gainesville, Daytona Beach, St. Augustine, and Ocala.

If water is present, we have the entire line of Basement Systems' crawl space products available including the finest sump pump systems available.

The CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System

The CleanSpace encapsulation system isolates a house from the earth, reducing humidity in the air. The importance of lowering the relative humidity level in your crawl space is that this is the only effective way in which a home owner can prevent mold growth and fungus from living and growing in the crawl space — thus making the entire home healthier.

The CleanSpace vapor barrier liner consists of a heavy 20-mil-thick material manufactured in seven layers, with two layers of cord reinforcement, to help prevent tears and punctures. The vapor barrier is blue on one side and white on the other. The bright white side brightens the crawl space and allows you and other professionals, such as pest control contractors to crawl on without worry of puncturing or tearing the liner, to easily see that your crawl space is free of mold and insects. The liner is tough enough to crawl on and enables you to use your crawl space as storage — something that would have been unheard of prior to the CleanSpace system!
