Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Sagging Floor and Wet Crawl Space Problem Solved in Altoona, PA

To help solve the issues they were experiencing with a flooded crawl space and sagging floors, a homeowner in Altoona, PA contacted our office for a free crawl space and foundation repair inspection. Design Specialist Logan M. responded to the home and diagnosed the issues. He proposed a plan to repair and waterproof the crawl space and stabilize the sagging floors. In the crawl space, water seeped through the foundation walls, and since the bottom of the home was built into the ground, hydrostatic pressure caused the walls to bow and weaken.As a result, the home was exposed to the risk of structural damage and further water damage over time.Once Logan's findings and the process for repairing their problems were presented, they were eager for our crew to do the job. Logan decided the best way to prevent water seepage was to use our CleanSpace vapor barrier system to shield the crawl space walls, and the TripleSafe sump pump to remove the water from the crawl space. The CleanSpace vapor barrier is designed to provide a moisture-proof layer on the walls to prevent water seepage. The TripleSafe sump pump removes water in the crawl space by pumping it away from the house through a discharge line. In order to fix the weakened and unstable foundation wall problem that caused the floors above the crawl space to sag, Logan decided that the EverBrace Wall Restoration System was the best solution. The EverBrace Wall Restoration System is a steel bracing system that is designed to stabilize and strengthen foundation walls that are bowing or buckling. It also helps to realign walls that have shifted over time, and provides a permanent solution to a weakened foundation wall. A wet crawl space and sagging floors are a thing of the past for these homeowners after the installation project was completed. They were very happy with the results and the crew here at Liberty Basement Systems!
