In Ely, MN, an ambitious homeowner was preparing for retirement and a transformation to an Airbnb, but their cabin's crawl space was damp, posing a threat to their vision and the property's structure. As you can see in the before photo, the space was in desperate need of TLC. Enter our team with the solution: CleanSpace©. The after photo showcases a transformed, sealed basement. Thanks to our production team led by Foreman Glen, this brilliant upgrade turns a shaky start into a firm foundation for the future.

The crawl space of this cabin in Ely, MN was experiencing lots of ice dams in the winter as the snow melted off the front side. They decided to call DBS in hopes of finding an energy-efficient solution.

Design Specialist Henry Jungbauer went to the cabin to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, Henry determined that their crawlspace was retaining a lot of heat that should have been blown into the living spaces of the home. He recommended that the owners consider spray foam insulation to solve their problem.

Foreman Nick Woods II led the installation of this project with a team. Together they cleared the old insulation from the concrete block foundation and layered the vertical walls with waterproof polyurethane spray foam. The spray foam will provide insulation for the crawl space as it expands as it is installed completely air-sealing the space.

Henry recommended that the homeowners eventually have insulation dense-packed into their roofing to keep even more heat inside of the cabin, but with the crawlspace insulation, they will notice how much warmer it is already. Now the owners will be more comfortable in their cabin for longer periods during the year.

The owners of this 1980s Ely, MN home experienced issues with sagging floors and freezing pipes because of their crawl space. After viewing an insulation ad for DBS on a local television station, the owner reached out in hopes of finding a solution. 

Design Specialist Henry Jungbauer went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, Henry informed the owners about DBS systems that would solve their problems.

Foreman Nick Woods II led the installation for this project with help from a crew. Together they installed SmartJack®supports to level the sagging floors and encapsulated the crawl space for better energy efficiency. In the crawl space, they laid down a water vapor barrier to waterproof the space. Then the crew air-sealed the crawl space with a waterproof polyurethane spray foam to thoroughly insulate the area. 

Now that the issues in the crawl space have been corrected, the owners can relax comfortably in their home without worrying about high energy bills or floors caving in.
