Crawlspace Repair
Challenge
This homeowner had a very tall crawlspace under there home that was accessed like a basement through the home. The homeonwer was suffering from very cold floors, freezing pipes and high energy bills. During the summer the home smelled very musty and stale. It was also very difficult to keep cool.
Solution
We treated the crawlspace like we would any other. Addressing the groundwater issues with a sump pump, installing a vapor barrier, eliminating outside air infiltration with spray insulation and conditioning the space with a dehumidifier. The home was instantly more comfortable and far more efficient. The crawlspace is now, essentially, an extension of the finished space in the home with the insulation and controlled environment. It's also a great area to be used for additional storage.
