Basement Waterproofing & Sump Pump Services in Whitestown, IN

We began by installing a crawl space drainage system along the interior perimeter. This system efficiently collects groundwater and channels it to a designated discharge point, preventing standing water and reducing the risk of wood rot and mold. To protect the space from ground moisture, we installed a 6-mil vapor barrier across the crawl space floor. This barrier reduces humidity, helps control mold growth, and creates a cleaner, more stable environment beneath the home. Our Crew then replaced sections of the sill plate that had deteriorated from moisture, using pressure-treated lumber for long-lasting durability. In addition, several floor joists were repaired and sistered to restore structural support and eliminate sagging in the floors above.

This homeowner reached out to Americrawl after experiencing recurring water intrusion and dampness in their basement. Water was seeping in along the perimeter walls during heavy rains, causing concern over potential damage to stored belongings and long-term structural issues. After a thorough inspection by our team, it was determined that the most effective solution would involve the installation of the AkwaGuard basement drainage system along with a SuperSump sump station to properly manage water collection and removal. The AkwaGuard drainage system was installed along the basement perimeter to efficiently capture groundwater and surface water seepage at the wall-floor joint. This system is engineered to redirect water into a designated pump basin before it can reach the finished or storage areas of the basement, providing a dry and secure environment even during heavy rainfall. At the heart of this system, we installed the SuperSump sump station, a premium sump pump system designed for high-performance water removal. Featuring a durable liner, airtight lid, and powerful cast-iron pump, the SuperSump provides reliable protection against basement flooding while operating quietly and efficiently. The system also includes a built-in alarm to alert homeowners of any potential issues before they become major problems.

Our crew started by installing AmeriDrain Drainage System to effectively capture and direct water away from the crawlspace, preventing pooling and reducing hydrostatic pressure. A new crawlspace access door was added for improved entryway. To control ground moisture, we laid a durable vapor barrier across the crawlspace floor. For additional protection against wood decay and pest activity, our crew applied Timbor Spray to all exposed structural wood surfaces. Finally, a complete debris removal was performed, clearing out old materials, dirt buildup, and potential mold-harboring waste.

This repeat customer completed the project in multiple stages to systematically address moisture control and crawlspace conditions. The first phase of work included the installation of approximately 106 linear feet of AmeriDrain drainage system along with one AmeriSump sump pump to effectively collect and discharge groundwater away from the crawlspace and foundation. The second phase consisted of installing approximately 1,248 square feet of CleanSpace encapsulation system, creating a continuous vapor barrier to reduce ground moisture, control humidity, and protect structural components. The third phase involved the installation of a Santa Fe Sedona dehumidifier to further regulate moisture levels and improve overall air quality within the crawlspace. Additional replacement filters were also purchased for the dehumidifier to support ongoing maintenance and ensure long-term, efficient operation of the system.

To repair this customer’s wet crawlspace in Zionsville, Indiana, Americrawl installed 180 linear feet of a high-performance crawlspace drainage system leading to a reliable sump pump to efficiently manage groundwater. The team encapsulated 1,656 sq ft with CleanSpace® vapor barrier to create a durable moisture barrier, followed by applying 1,656 sq ft of TimBor® treatment to help protect the wood structure from mold. A new crawlspace access door was also installed to improve energy efficiency and provide a cleaner, more secure entry. Together, these Americrawl solutions deliver long-term moisture control, improved air quality, and a healthier, more usable crawlspace.

Americrawl helped this Zionsville, Indiana homeowner create a healthier, more energy-efficient crawlspace by removing deteriorated blue board insulation and installing 1,248 square feet of CleanSpace® crawlspace encapsulation. Removing old insulation helps eliminate areas where moisture, mold, and pests can thrive, while the durable CleanSpace vapor barrier seals the crawlspace from ground moisture and humidity. This crawlspace encapsulation system helps improve indoor air quality, protects the home's structural components, and creates a cleaner, drier environment beneath the home. By controlling moisture and reducing crawlspace humidity, the homeowner can enjoy greater comfort, improved energy efficiency, and long-term protection for their property.

The project involves fully encapsulating a 750-square-foot crawl space using a CleanSpace-type moisture-control system. Work includes preparing the crawl space, installing a durable 20-mil vapor barrier, sealing all vents and penetrations, and implementing moisture-management components as needed. The goal is to create a clean, dry, energy-efficient, and protected environment that prevents moisture intrusion, mold growth, structural deterioration, and pest activity.
