Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

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. 

This homeowner in Hovland, MN was concerned about the energy efficiency in her home and the air quality. After a quick call to DBS, an appointment was set to have a specialist come out to the home for a free, no-obligation estimate. At the inspection, the specialist was able to explain to the homeowner the best possible solution. The crawl space beneath the home was giving off slight odors and growing some mold. To combat this problem, encapsulating the space would be the best option. This CleanSpace® solution would also make the home more energy efficient and create a barrier between the ground and the house. The homeowner chose to go forward with this work and once it was completed, she no longer had to worry about mold and odor coming from the crawlspace.
