Before & After

Homeowners in Voorheesville, NY had a crawlspace beneath their home that caused the upstairs area to be much cooler than it should have been. It lacked proper insulation and was damp, due to water seeping through the seams of the foundation. Since this home was newly purchased, they decided it would be most ideal to rectify these issues as soon as possible. They contacted Adirondack Basement Systems for a free estimate with one of our Crawlspace specialists. Upon doing a thorough inspection, he recommended installing both a vapor barrier and a thermal barrier along the blocked walls of the crawlspace as well as sprayfoam in the joists. CleanSpace vapor barrier is made of an inorganic material which cannot support mold growth and is warrantied against rips and tears. ThermalDry Wall is a thermal barrier made with SilverGlo technology. The reflective material keeps heat from escaping and cold air from coming through.
This before and after shows how much a Crawl Space Encapsulation can make a difference. This customer called with concerns about water appearing in the crawl space when the groundwater would rise. We decided to encapsulate the crawl space and install the SaniDry Sedona to keep the humidity low. Now, they have a beautiful crawl space that is well insulated and waterproof.
Crawl spaces need attention and the right products. If a crawl space is not properly protected from the elements, then it will lead to problems not only right in the crawl space but the rest of the house as well. A very common and effective product used in crawl spaces is on display in these photos. CleanSpace acts as a vapor barrier, keeping moisture from the ground outside from seeping in and causing mayhem in the crawl space. If your home is experiencing water issues like this, CleanSpace is the answer!
A new homeowner in Delmar, NY had a small crawlspace with a vent that would constantly leak water creating a damp mess. It also effected the temperature on the first floor and these were both concerns that they wanted to be remedied so they could fully enjoy their new home. Being previous customers of ours at a different home, they knew Adirondack Basement Systems was the trusted #1 waterproofing company in the capital region so they set up another free estimate to put these issues to rest once and for all.
Our foreman Sean came and installed CleanSpace vapor barrier to floor of the crawlspace and SilverGlo around the walls. SilverGlo has an R-11 value insulation to keep more heat in the crawl space and home while Cleanspace protects from mold and mildew growth due to the humid environment of crawlspaces and basements.
It’s winter time, which means crawl space encapsulations are more important than ever. Combining our CleanSpace and SilverGlo products in a crawl space will provide a reliable, efficient system that not only helps keep moisture from seeping in, causing stale air and damage, but it also prevents heat from escaping the house, keeping you and your family warm during these cold months!
