Crawlspace Repair in Intervale, New Hampshire, by Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems
Challenge
When the homeowners in Intervale, New Hampshire, noticed sagging floors and a damp, unprotected crawlspace, they sought the expertise of Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems. The team was tasked with providing structural repairs and installing a durable CleanSpace floor system to address these issues.
The crawlspace presented two significant challenges:
-
Structural Instability: The existing floor supports were failing, leading to sagging and uneven floors throughout the home.
-
Unprotected Crawlspace: The dirt floor in the crawlspace was contributing to moisture buildup and an unhealthy environment.
Solution
To resolve these issues, the Northern Basement Systems team implemented a two-part solution to strengthen and protect the crawlspace.
1. Structural Support with the SmartJack System
-
Installation: Heavy-duty SmartJacks provided long-lasting and adjustable support to the compromised beams.
-
Benefits: This system restored the stability of the home's floors and ensured future adjustability to accommodate natural settling.
2. CleanSpace Floor System
-
Installation: A durable CleanSpace liner was installed over the crawlspace floor, creating a clean, moisture-resistant barrier.
-
Benefits: This system reduces moisture levels and improves the overall air quality in the home by preventing damp conditions and vapor intrusion.
After installation, the project was completed,and the Intervale homeowners were delighted with the outcome:
-
Sturdy Floors: The SmartJack system eliminated sagging and restored the home's structural integrity.
-
Clean Environment: The CleanSpace floor system transformed the crawlspace into a dry, protected area, enhancing the home's comfort and value.
