Crawl Space Waterproofing in Apple Grove, WV
Challenge
Recently, we had the opportunity to help a homeowner in Apple Grove, WV, who was experiencing a problem that's unfortunately all too common in our region. After every rain, a musty smell wafted from their crawl space, turning what should be a cozy home into one that felt damp and smelled a bit too much like an old crawl space. Understandably troubled, the homeowner reached out to us at Alford Foundation & Crawl Space Repair for a solution.
Solution
Our process began with a call to our Appointment Center team, after which we scheduled a home inspection to get a closer look at the issue. One of our top Solution Specialists visited the home, conducted a thorough evaluation of the crawl space, and diagnosed the crux of the problem. Based on this diagnosis, we recommended our CleanSpace solution—a state-of-the-art liner system designed explicitly for crawl space encapsulation and waterproofing.
Installing CleanSpace was a game changer for the Apple Grove homeowner. The heavy, durable liner we installed across the floor and walls of the crawl space sealed off the earth's moisture, which was the main culprit behind the musty smell. Not only does this system block moisture from entering, but it also discourages mold growth and creates a more energy-efficient home. The impact didn't take long to notice.
After our team efficiently completed the installation and tidied up, leaving no trace of construction behind, the musty smell that once pervaded the homeowner's space disappeared. This left their crawl space—and by extension, their entire home—feeling fresher, drier, and healthier.
