The Drying Co. Before & After Photos

These homeowners in Newport News, VA needed insulation in their crawl space and called The Drying Company to address this. After a free estimate appointment and scheduling process, our team installed SilverGlo over the foundation walls of the crawl space. The SilverGlo foam board is 2 inches thick and has an R-10 value. This causes it to act as an air barrier and vapor retarder. A 20-mil CleanSpace vapor barrier is installed over the crawl space floors and is fastened up the foundation walls about six to eight inches above outside grade, while the SilverGlo is mechanically fastened over the CleanSpace on the foundation walls with an exposed two-inch viewing strip to allow for termite inspections. This crawl space can remain conditioned and sealed with insulation on the foundation walls rather than between the floor joists. The outside air and moisture will find it difficult to infiltrate, and the relative humidity of the crawl space can now be controlled and regulated using an energy-efficient dehumidifier. If you or someone you know is also experiencing crawl space moisture or insulation issues, then please give us a call! We'll help you keep the outside, outside!

This basement had an existing sump pump that wasn't keeping it dry. The pump and basin sat in an open pit of water, that would back up into the basement. To help alleviate this, we installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump System. We cleaned the pit out and filled it with stone to keep mud away from the basin and pump. The TripleSafe Sump Pump System contains 3 pumps, a 1/3 HP pump, a 1/2 hp sump, and the UltraSump Battery Back-up. Together these pumps keep your basement dry. 

This basement has some concerns with water infiltration. In addition to a TripleSafe Sump Pump System, on the opposite side of the basement, we installed with SuperSump Pump System next to the water heater. The SuperSump Pump System which contains a 1/2 hp pump on a pump stand to keep it from clogging if any silt or sediment finds it's way into the pump basin. 

This homeowner currently didn't have gutters on their home and was looking for a solution that eliminated the need to get on their roof and clean their gutters. We installed Gutter Shutter on the front and back of the home. 

This home had existing gutters that were falling away from the house, rusted, and warped. 

We removed the old gutters and replaced them with the Gutter Shutter System. This system is guaranteed to never clog, sag, or pull away!
