The owner of this home in Merrifield, MN discovered mold in their crawlspace. They wanted to get ahead of dealing with freezing pipes during the winter, so the homeowner contacted DBS.
Design Specialist Austin Burley went out to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate of the issue. After a thorough inspection, Austin recommended the Crawl Space Encapsulation service by DBS.
Foreman Raeshawn Pelfrey led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they stripped the crawl space of the old insulation. The first layer of crawl space encapsulation involves installing a layer of dimpled drainage matting to assist the flow of water underneath. Then a layer of TerraBlock™ foam insulation is installed as a barrier against frost. Finally, the previous layers are encased in a layer of CleanSpace® water vapor barrier. The crew also air-sealed the space with a polyurethane spray foam that expands into crevices as it is applied.
The crawl space has been thoroughly encapsulated and the homeowner will be able to relax more comfortably as their home retains cool air in the summer and warm air in the winter. They will also be happy to see lower energy bills as winter progresses.
In Merrifield, MN, this beloved barn was on the brink of loss, cherished for its heritage and memories the owners had with it. Cracks had deepened over the year, jeopardizing the structure of the barn. Once we had stepped in with our EverBrace™ system, we started building the structure back up with the support it needed. As evident in the after photo, the barn now stands strong, ready for many more years of memories.
