Crawl Spaces can be dirty, stinky, and wet. They are homes to spiders, moles, rats, birds, snakes, and groundhogs to name a few. In worst cases, they are home to mold. Mold in your crawlspace is no laughing matter. Most of the air you breath in your home comes from your crawl space. Yes, grossed out yet? When you have mold in your crawl space it can cause serious health problems. Mold can also cause serious structural problems. Mold grows on and eats organic materials in your crawlspace, or in other words its eating the wood that is supporting your house.
At Home Environment Solutions, we want you and your family to be safe. We solve all your crawl space problems turning it into a safe clean environment that can be utilized for storage. Crawl Space encapsulation is a process of closing your crawl space vents, insulating your walls using SilverGlo Wall Insulation Board and putting down a CleanSpace vapor barrier to prevent moisture seeping from the earth into your crawlspace.
An encapsulated crawl space will not only make your home safer and more comfortable it will save you money on your energy bills and increase the life of your HVAC systems. As you can see here, the space previous to our insulation and barrier systems had a dirt floor and poorly installed insulation. After our work is done, the area is well sealed and super clean. These homeowners were extremely pleased with the outcome!
This Pittsburgh, PA customer was experiencing a cold floor and musty odors in the room directly above his cellar. Our production team used sheets of particle board, spray foam insulation, and dense packing of cellulose insulation to fix this problem.
