Crawl Space Insulation Before & After Photos

The owner Virginia P called us after finding us online. They had a moisture problem and a musty smell in their home they couldn’t figure out.

 Mark O evaluated the home.  He discovered a vented crawl space below most of the home to be the problem. During Marks inspection he also discovered some wood rot and very high humidity in the wet crawl space. Mark had solutions to resolve the homes moisture problems and musty odors.

 Foreman Mike Y, installers Craig C. and Jeff W. installed and air sealed SilverGlo insulation on the walls and in the rim joist followed by CleanSpace Liner throughout the crawl space.

 The end result was a dry crawlspace, normal humidity throughout the home and the musty odors are gone

In a crawl space, fiberglass insulation tends to absorb moisture, which causes it to lose R-value and fall out of place, rendering it totally ineffective while also creating a mess. To keep moisture from entering the space, we installed drainage matting and the CleanSpace vapor barrier above it. On the walls we used SilverGlo Wall Insulation. After we repaired and waterproofed the crawl space, the owners never had to worry about crawl space humidity and energy loss again!

The crawl space above was underneath an over 100 year old Victorian home.  When Home Environment Solutions first entered the home it wasn't safe for children or adults.  The mold spore count in this homes air was at dangerous levels.  As air leaks out of the attic it is replaced with air that enters through the basement, this is known as the stack effect.  This means that the majority of air in this persons home was coming from their crawl space.  This is why its so important to have your crawl space encapsulated.  

After removing the mold from this home, Home Environment Solutions encapsulated their crawl space using CleanSpace lining.  The lining prevents any future moisture from entering into the crawl space.  The process involves closing crawl space vents and insulating the walls.  Call Home Environment Solutions today for your free estimate.

Duke called Home Environment Solutions when he discovered a leak in the roof of his New Cumberland, WV home.   He set up an inspection for mold and asked if we could look at his crawl space while the team was there.   

Russ went out to provide the free in home evaluation and found the attic mold on the existing insulation.   He also gave Duke an estimate to encapsulate his crawlspace.  

The HES team arrived and removed the mold infested insulation, air sealed the attic.   The team then began work encapsulating the crawlspace of the house with the CleanSpace encapsulation system and a SmartSump drainage system.
