Damp and Moldy Crawl Space in Lutsen, MN Insulated with SprayFoam

This homeowner in Lutsen, MN reached out to DBS with a crawl space project. The owner had noticed mold and mildew on the underside of her flooring and became concerned with the exposed dirt in the crawlspace. 

Design Specialist Henry Jungbauer assisted this homeowner in a free no-obligation estimate. After inspection, it was decided that encapsulating the crawl space with SprayFoam insulation would be the most effective solution.

Foreman Nicholas Woods led this installation process, along with a partner. The crawl space had old, deteriorating insulation that was failing to help the home, so it was removed before the DBS installation. Using SprayFoam, the team encapsulated the area. SprayFoam insulation is very resistant to moisture and mold damage, making it the best option for this homes crawl space. 

Wit their new, dry, and warm crawlspace, this homeowner can now relax knowing their home is healthy.

Rental Home in Grand Marais, MN Encapsulated with Dr. Energy Saver Solutions

This Grand Marais, MN home was purchased for the purpose of renovation and renting. The owner was in the process of fixing up the house but needed help encapsulating the crawl space in order to fix any smell, moisture, and heating issues that were affecting the home. 

Design Specialist Emily Haala assisted the homeowner in a free, no-obligation estimate in order to find the best solutions for the crawl space encapsulation. After a careful inspection, Emily recommended a full crawl space encapsulation with SprayFoam insulation, TerraBlock™, and CleanSpace®.

Foreman Nicholas Woods II led a team in the installation of this project. Together, the team started by using SprayFoam insulation on the walls to air seal any unwanted holes or cracks that were allowing large amounts of airflow into the space. Following that, they used TerraBlock™ insulation on the ground to prevent any coldness or moisture from rising into the home. Finally, they used CleanSpace® to create a clean finish and to transform the space into a safe storage area. 

This home will no longer be affected by the crawl space issues it faced before, and can now continue to be renovated and rented out.
