Crawl Space Repair, Encapsulation and Moisture Control in NC Unhealthy Dirt CrawlSpaces Harbor Mold!There are three things that destroy materials in general (wood in particular): water, heat, and ultraviolet radiation. Of these, water is by far the most important.A dirt, vented or unconditioned concretecrawl spaceunder a home in North Carolina is a very bad idea. The earth has very high humidity in the soil. This water vapor moves easily into the crawl space and upward into the home environment.Damp environments are unhealthy and destructive... a place where mold thrives and spreads by producing millions of airborne spores - a rare few of which are even toxic - and heating and cooling costs are higher, especially if you have a vented dirt crawl space.Insects and critters of all kinds love damp environments and wet materials found in a crawl space. Rot and decay also occur in damp environments, causing structural damage. For aFREE estimate on repairing your damp crawl space, call or e-mail us today!Crawl spaces do not have to be wet or flooded to be extremely unhealthy.The "Stack Effect"The natural airflow in a house is from bottom to top. This sucks the moist air and everything in it up into the living areas of the home, so if it's in your crawl space air, it can be in your home as well. This includes mold spores, dust mite waste, odors, and other allergens and unhealthy things.Mold spores, odors, humidity and critters create a very unhealthy environment for people. Many people are allergic to these things, and experience a host of symptoms and don't realize that their dirt or concrete crawl space is affecting their health and comfort.Now there is a solution to crawl spaces - TheCleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System- developed by Basement Systems, Inc., the world leader in dry basement and crawl space technology.The Solution: The CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation SystemCleanSpace Encapsulation withthe SaniDry Dehumidifier keepsyour crawl space healthy!TheCleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation systemisolates a home from the earth, reducing the relative humidity level in the air. Lower humidity levels reduce or, in some cases, eliminate mold growth, rot, and critters from your crawl space, making the entire house healthier.The CleanSpace crawl space liner is a heavy 20-mil-thick material, similar to a pool liner. It is manufactured in seven layers - a blend of high-density polyethylene, low-density polyethylene, and two layers of polyester-cord reinforcement to give it incredible strength. The white liner really brightens a crawl space with the available lighting, allowing for easy inspection and reassurance that your crawl space is free of mold, insects and dirt.The CleanSpace liner is tough enough to crawl on and store items on - giving your home extra storage space. Service workers can crawl on it without worry of putting holes or tears in the liner - and they'll love you for it!

Say you have a vertical basement wall crack. You've ascertained that it's not a foundation problem, but nonetheless, water is pouring through it and into your basement. And you're not OK with that. Call three basement waterproofing or foundation repair contractors in the Wilmington area, and you're going to get four different answers about how it should be fixed. Stop by a hardware store, and they'll give you a few more of their own. The truth of the matter is this: Almost all of the solutions you hear about are going to work-- some of the time. However, what you want is a wall crack repair that's going to work all of the time, right? To this end, Ironside Foundation Repair Service, Inc. of North Carolina would like to share with you a few of the more common professional and do-it-yourself repairs we've encountered for leaking cracks in the basement or foundation walls. And if the time comes when you're ready to have a professional help you fix it, visit Ironside Foundation Repair Service, Inc. 's web site and give them a call for a FREE, no-obligation waterproofing estimate. They're available in Fayeteville and Wilmington and all areas nearby. Caulk Wall Crack Repair One of the most common do-it-yourself crack repairs is to seal up the wall crack with caulk. However, this is a superficial fix only. Water will still fill the crack behind the patch, bringing with it a white, powdery mineral salt known as efflorescence. This water and efflorescence will break the bond of the caulk and concrete, causing the seal to peel off and leak again. We find that this repair usually lasts about 6-months to a year before failing. Hydraulic Cement, Epoxy,&Grout; Seals Instead of using caulk, some homeowners and waterproofers will try to repair the crack by chiseling it into an inverted V-groove and filling it with either grout, epoxy, or hydraulic cements. These seals create rigid, inflexible barriers, and concrete walls are going to expand and contract over time with moisture and temperature. As they do, the basement walls with either work the plug free, resulting in new leaks, or the wall will crack again nearby. And if they're using epoxy, it must be applied only to a dry, clean surface-- this is usually not possible with a leaking crack. And epoxy cures very slowly; while it's curing, it can leak out of the back of the wall crack, making it ineffective. Whether you use hydraulic cement, epoxy, or grout, Ironside Foundation Repair Service, Inc. finds that these seals tend to last for less than two years on average. Exterior Basement Wall Crack Sealing One extreme repair option is to excavate the outside perimeter of the foundation and apply a waterproof coating on the basement walls from the outside. However, this is a very labor-intensive, expensive repair. The excavation often requires the removal of anything around the wall, including landscaping, steps, sidewalks, patios, shrubberies, and other things, and it leaves mounds of dirt in the yard while the work is being done. A year after the dirt has been returned, it will have settled, requiring grading. This option usually works, provided that tar is not used on the walls. But it's also the most expensive and invasive option available. Polyurethane/Urethane Basement Wall Crack Filling Better contractors will apply a urethane or polyurethane sealant into the wall cracks. These materials can have a very high viscosity, allowing it to seep into the small cracks and pores of the cement to create a tight, reliable bond. These materials are flexible and can expand and contract with the wall, helping them to last much longer than other options. Urethane is the weaker of these two options. While it is a flexible material, it can only expand to about 10% larger than its size. A wall crack can easily expand from 1/16th inches to 1/8th inch very quickly, which would break a urethane seal. Polyurethane can expand to 20 times its size. These seals hold about 95% of the time, and offer the best waterproofing sealant option for your dollar. The FlexiSpan Wall Crack System But don't you want 100% protection? If so, consider the FlexiSpan concrete wall crack system. This seal combines the strength and flexibility of a polyurethane seal with a foam strip over the top. If there is ever a leak in the polyurethane, it reaches the foam strip, which then directs the excess water downwards into a small drywell beneath your floor. And once it's been completed, it's covered over with a muted coating, which gives your repaired wall crack a tooled-off, attractive finish. The FlexiSpan installs in about two hours, comes with a ten-year written warranty, and is offered exclusively in Fayeteville and Wilmington by Ironside Foundation Repair Service, Inc. .
