Before & After
A homeowner in Stafford, Virginia, living in a rambler, noticed their floors were bowing and uneven, raising concerns about the stability of their home. After a thorough inspection by NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair, we discovered that water was entering the crawl space, causing the wood beams to rot and compromising the home’s foundation. The moisture had also led to mold growth, further exacerbating the problem.
To address these issues, we installed a full CleanSpace system, which included drainage matting to direct water away and SilverGlo insulation to regulate temperature and improve energy efficiency. SilverGlo is a high-performance insulation material that reflects heat back into the crawl space, keeping it warm and dry while reducing energy costs. We also remediated the mold with Mold-X spray, ensuring a healthier environment for the homeowner. To restore the structural integrity of the home, we added new supplemental beams and SmartJacks, which are adjustable steel supports designed to stabilize and level sagging floors.
To further protect the crawl space, we installed an EverLast door, a durable and airtight solution that prevents moisture and pests from entering. Additionally, we blocked the crawl space vents to keep cold air out, ensuring a more stable and energy-efficient home.
Thanks to NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair’s comprehensive crawl space repair and foundation stabilization services in Stafford, VA, this homeowner now enjoys a safe, stable, and energy-efficient home. Their floors are level, the crawl space is dry and insulated, and the foundation is secure for years to come.
