Property manager of this Lancaster PA rental home contacted Basement Systems to assess the issue of "bubbling paint" and "Musty smell" coming from the basement. When our inspector Chris Cooke went out to this property, seeing that there could be no leaking pipes, it was determined that ground water had been leaking in to this basement and when that is left unattended, mold can start to grow and cause that musty smell.
Basement Systems came out and did a spotted MoldX2 treatment and installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier on all 4 foundation walls. CleanSpace not only stops water from penetrating the walls, but it is also a quick, economical way to cover up, not so pretty basement walls.
The crawl space in this Lancaster, PA, home was suffering from severe groundwater intrusion, even though it had been encapsulated before. The original barrier was failing, allowing water to seep through and create a damp, unprotected space. This made the crawl space vulnerable to potential mold growth, odors, and structural issues, and the homeowner was understandably concerned.
After a thorough evaluation, we installed our CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System, providing a robust moisture barrier and addressing the groundwater issue head-on. The new encapsulation system not only restored the crawl space to a dry, protected environment but also offered the homeowner peace of mind. Now, his Lancaster, PA, home has a durable solution that will keep the crawl space dry, effectively sealing out moisture and ensuring lasting protection against water intrusion.
