SmartJack Floor Supports are constructed by having a structural stone compacted into place. Then the steel SmartJack is cut to size and installed under the sagging floor. The adjustable screw can be used to jack up the floor and can easily be adjusted in the future.
CleanSpace Liner is installed on the floors and walls of the crawl space to provide a mold and vapor-proof barrier. The CleanSpace Vent Covers also help to seal the crawl space and prevent debris from getting into the crawl space. The EverLast Door provides easy access into the crawl space. SilverGlo Crawl Space Insulation has graphite particles infused into it to reflect heat back into the crawl space. This also helps to keep the floors above warmer and lowers heating costs.
The SaniDry Sedona keeps the humidity low. Controlling the humidity in the crawl space is important to keep your home environment healthy. High humidity encourages mold growth and musty odors in the crawl space which can also work its way up into the living space of the home.
