More Than 50 Exclusive Crawl Space Products
No matter what you need for your crawl space, there's a CleanSpace product that's custom-designed just for you! Basement Systems, Inc.'s products for basement waterproofing and crawl space repair have been awarded more than 30 patents and have won more than 40 quality and innovation awards.
These products have been successfully used to meet the needs of homeowners with crawl spaces in hundreds of thousands of homes, including repairs and upgrades for crawl spaces.
Our crawl space products serve the following needs for homeowners:
Humidity Control & Crawl Space Sealing
If you have a vented crawl space that's moldy, musty, and showing signs of wood rot, then you know
better than most that crawl space vents simply do not work.
The CleanSpace® Network has the alternative! Our experts have designed a complete crawl space
system -- one that includes a crawl space liner and energy-efficient dehumidifier system.
We can install a complete system in your home quickly -- with a typical installation being completed
in less than a day. Once installed, your crawl space will be drier, healthier, and more energy
efficient than ever before!
Our crawl space liner is made with seven layers of tough, durable material that's designed to
withstand traffic from the homeowner and workers -- with a 25-year written, transferable warranty!
Crawl Space Waterproofing Solutions
Flooding in a crawl space can lead to a variety of issues, including mold, moisture, and ruined
fiberglass insulation. Before the crawl space can be dried or upgrades are made to the space, it's
extremely important that all sources of standing water are addressed.
Your local CleanSpace® dealer has access to a variety of drainage and water removal solutions for
your crawl space, including sump pump systems, drain systems, drainage matting, and our
custom-designed crawl space perimeter drain system.
If your crawl space floods due to a plumbing failure, a homeowner can go weeks, months, or even years
before the leak is discovered. Our system includes a water alarm system, so you know right away.
Crawl Space Insulation
Fiberglass insulation installed between the floor joists in a crawl space is notorious for becoming
weighed down with humidity and moisture. As it does, it will sag downwards, eventually falling
uselessly to the ground.
CleanSpace® Dealers have exclusive access to our SilverGlo™ Crawl Space Insulation System
-- an innovative, waterproof insulation and radiant heat barrier.
When installed on your crawl space walls, SilverGlo™ doubles as a vapor barrier, protecting
your crawl space from moisture and humidity from the walls.
For your crawl space floor, we recommend the TerraBlock™ Crawl Space Floor Insulation &
Vapor Barrier System -- which is rugged enough to withstand foot traffic without damage!
Structural Repair For Sagging Crawl Spaces
Crawl spaces can experience structural damage for many reasons, the main reasons being the following:
Your crawl space has too few structural supports.
The structural supports are sinking into the soil.
The structural wood in the crawl space is rotting.
Structural damage in a crawl space can manifest itself in the home in many ways, including uneven
floors, jamming doors, and cracks in the drywall.
Common solutions for crawl space structural repair are often ineffective -- and can even lead to
further structural damage as they're installed.
Our award-winning SmartJack® Crawl Space Support System provides a permanent, warrantied
solution!
Free Crawl Space Repair & Upgrade Estimates
Dealers in the CleanSpace® Network, provide homeowners in their service area with free written quotes for all repairs and upgrades for their crawl space.
Each quote includes a professional, on-site inspection and measurement of the crawl space. Using the CleanSpace innovative crawl space software program, your specialist will make recommendations on which options would work best for your scenario.
As an added courtesy, your local dealer will also mail along a full-color copy of Crawl Space Science, a book filled with photos and information about crawl spaces and CleanSpace solutions.
