The Drying Co. Before & After Photos

Closed Cell Spray Foam installed in a Standston, VA shed. 

These homeowners in Sandston, VA were concerned about moisture in their crawl space. Many areas of the crawl space dirt floor were exposed and efflorescence covered the porous block walls. To address the moisture issues from the foundation walls, we installed a 10-mil CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. This crawl space liner is installed over the crawl space floor, wrapped around each pier, and mechanically attached to the foundation walls above the outside grade. This will help protect the crawl space from the earth’s moisture.

Water has been seeping through these basement walls and causing moisture damage to the insulation on the floors above. The homeowner wanted to replace their insulation and waterproof the basement. 

We installed the WaterGuard system with SuperSump Plus and Ultra Sump Battery Back-up sump pump system and replaced the insulation on the floors above. 

The original crawl space door on this home was a piece of ply-wood that had been damaged by weather over time. It was waterlogged and rotting, and because it didn't have a seal it didn't prevent pests or outside air and moisture from entering the crawl space. 

We installed a new crawl space door that will not warp, rust, or rot and is HOA friendly. Behind this door, is a friction-fit door that insulates and air seals behind the exterior door. 

This Petersburg, VA home had an issue with water entering their basement. A trench drain was installed around the exterior basement door. This drain will collect any water that enters the basement through the exterior door.
