A DBS Design Specialist was sent out to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowners. After a thorough inspection, the Design Specialist generated a quote for the homeowners for our Crawl Space Encapsulation services.
A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together they installed dimpled drainage matting in the crawl space to help provide a water barrier that would help assist the flow of water without causing puddles. Then they laid panels of TerraBlock™ insulation over the drainage matting to prevent frost build-up. Finally, they finished the encapsulation by installing a layer of CleanSpace® water vapor barrier.
Now that the crawl space has been properly encapsulated, the homeowner will notice that their floors are much warmer and the musty smell has faded.
