NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair serving Thurmont, MD

A homeowner in Thurmont, MD noticed signs that something was wrong beneath their home. The floors above the crawl space had started to feel uneven and less stable, raising concerns about the home’s structural support. Like many crawl space problems, the issue was hidden below the home and could have continued to worsen if left untreated.

The homeowner contacted NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair for a full free crawl space inspection. During the inspection, our Design Specialist found that the crawl space needed structural support and moisture protection. Excess moisture in a crawl space can lead to wood rot, weakened floor joists, musty odors, mold concerns, and sagging floors over time.

To restore the home’s stability, our team installed SmartJack® crawl space support posts. SmartJacks are designed to stabilize and support the floors above the crawl space, helping address sagging or uneven floors caused by weakened support beams or settling crawl space columns.

We also completed a full crawl space encapsulation to help protect the area from ground moisture and humidity. The encapsulation system helped seal the crawl space, improve moisture control, and create a cleaner, healthier space beneath the home.

With the SmartJacks installed and the crawl space fully encapsulated, the Thurmont, MD homeowner now has improved structural support, better moisture protection, and greater peace of mind. The customer was happy with the completed crawl space repair and relieved to know their home was better protected for the future.

A homeowner in Thurmont, MD began experiencing water intrusion in their basement after extreme weather conditions brought heavy rain to the area. As water continued finding its way inside, the homeowner became concerned about moisture damage, musty odors, and the possibility of larger basement water problems developing over time.

They contacted NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair for a full free basement inspection. During the inspection, our Design Specialist found that the foundation needed a complete basement waterproofing system to properly manage the water and protect the home from future intrusion.

To solve the problem, our team installed WaterGuard® along the interior perimeter of the basement to collect water at the foundation wall and floor joint. We also installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier to help control moisture on the basement walls, a new sump pump to move water out of the home, and exterior discharge lines to direct water safely away from the foundation.

With the full waterproofing system in place, the Thurmont, MD homeowner now has a drier, more protected basement and peace of mind during future storms. The customer was happy with the completed project and relieved to have a long-term solution for basement water intrusion.
