Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation for Year-Round Protection in Aurora, MN

New homeowners in Aurora, MN wanted to protect their home from the extreme temperature fluctuations in our region. Their vented crawl space allowed for outside air to enter their home, creating humid conditions in the summer and cold drafts in the winter. Interested in our crawl space encapsulation system, they contacted DBS for a free, no-obligation estimate.Production Manager Steve Lafontaine visited the home and completed a thorough inspection of the dirt crawl space. He proposed our full encapsulation system for the space, as well as a crawl space sump pump to keep water up and out of the home. Our Dr. Energy Saver® Austin Sande Foreman led this crawl space encapsulation project. Our crew began by removing the existing plastic in the crawl space and prepping the dirt floor for sealing. From there, they installed our three-layer system: drainage matting to capture moisture, TerraBlock™ crawl space insulation, and our CleanSpace® vapor barrier to prevent any moisture from creating condensation and wet humid air in the space.This home is guaranteed to see an improvement in year-round comfort with a DBS crawl space encapsulation system.
