Alford Foundation and Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

At Alford Foundation & Crawl Space Repair, we understand the discomfort and health concerns a damp, musty crawl space can bring into your home. In Horner, WV, a homeowner faced just that problem – as you can see in the before photo. Mold and mustiness threatened their living space, creating an urgent need for a lasting solution. Our intervention involved the installation of the CleanSpace system, transforming their crawl area into a dry, healthy underpinning for their home. Now, as evidenced in the after photo, the area is not just visually improved but also secured against future moisture issues. Through this meticulous work, we remained committed to our mission: providing a remarkable customer experience alongside a reliable, long-lasting solution.

The customer was experiencing a wet basement. We installed a Sump Pump and CleanSpace. 

Angela L. had a wet basement and a musty smell in the home. We installed drainage, sump pump, and CleanSpace. 

This homeowner in Clarksburg, WV, was experiencing severe foundation wall problems and was in desperate need of a permanent solution. Basement walls typically settle due to the soil movement, like softening, wet and dry cycles, poor compaction, or pressure from expanded street concrete!

This particular foundation had major signs of structural failure, including large cracks, weakened support beams, wall shearing, and bowing in some places. The Alford Foundation & Crawl Space Repair team knew just what to do.

We installed the EverBrace Wall Restoration System, a zinc-coated, heavy-duty steel panel solution that won't rust or corrode, and is built to restore any wall with excessive deterioration. This system acts like a coat of armor and will give the homeowner peace of mind knowing their foundation is sound and secure for the foreseeable future. 

This moisture-ridden basement in Clarksburg, WV, had several problems that needed to be addressed. First, the foundation. Large cracks in the concrete foundation wall were signs of settling and soil movement, leading to structural instability. Secondly, the homeowner had a water intrusion problem. When water and moisture come into contact with wooden materials such as support beams, they will begin to rot, weaken, and deteriorate. Water in a basement can also cause mold, an unpleasant odor, and even health hazards. As foundation and waterproofing experts, we first installed the PowerBrace System, a joist reinforcement method that permanently stabilizes a home's foundation. Then, we added CleanSpace vapor barrier to protect against water and mold growth. Now the basement is much more functional, clean, and dry, a perfect space for these homeowners to rest over the years.
