Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Wet And Nasty Crawl Space Encapsulated In Hayward, Wisconsin

These homeowners in Hayward, Wisconsin reached out to DBS for help encapsulating their nasty crawl space. The area under there home had exposed earth floors and was not properly insulated when constructed. This lead to mold formation, musty odors throughout the home, and high heating and cooling bills. A DBS Dr. Energy Saver® Design Specialist went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the crawl space and measuring where heat was escaping a combination of CleanSpace® vapor barrier, a TripleSafe™ sump pump, and closed cell spray foam were recommended to make this home healthy, safe, and comfortable. This home was repaired by DBS Foremen Zach Jorenby and Jason Foster, with the help of their production crews. This home is now dry, clean and more energy-efficient during all four seasons!

Before Photo - Mold Damage

This crawl space had uncontrolled moisture which allows mold growth. Mold creates musty odors throughout the entire home and will reoccur when moisture and temperature are optimal.

Before Photo - Uninstalled Ducts

Uninsualated ducts are a problem for temperature regulation. Every seam and connection point can leak air if not properly sealed.
