The installation team completed a comprehensive crawlspace waterproofing and moisture-control project designed to protect the home from groundwater intrusion, excess humidity, and mold-related concerns. The work included the installation of 215 linear feet of AmeriDrain interior crawlspace drainage system along the foundation perimeter to intercept groundwater seepage and relieve hydrostatic pressure at the footing level. The drainage system was carefully installed to provide continuous water collection and direct flow toward one AmeriSump sump station, which was installed to efficiently collect and discharge water away from the home through a dedicated exterior discharge line. To further control moisture conditions beneath the home, a reinforced vapor barrier was installed across the crawlspace floor and sealed around foundation surfaces and penetrations to create a continuous moisture barrier. This system helps prevent ground moisture from migrating into the crawlspace environment, reducing humidity levels and protecting structural components from moisture-related deterioration. In addition, Timbor wood treatment spray was applied to exposed framing members and structural wood surfaces throughout the crawlspace. This borate-based treatment helps inhibit mold growth, protect against fungal decay, and improve the overall condition of the crawlspace. Together, these integrated systems provide long-term moisture management, mold prevention, and enhanced protection for the home's foundation and structural framing.
