Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Stabilization and Crawl Space Encapsulation In Duluth, Minnesota

These homeowners in Duluth, MN reached out to DBS for help keeping their crawl space dry and the foundation of the home stable. DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the home, Henrik found issues with the support system for the upstairs flooring. The crawl space was in need of encapsulation to reduce moisture that was resulting in mold and musty odors throughout the home. CleanSpace® water proofing vapor barrier and closed cell spray foam were recommended to keep the crawl space sealed and dry. This home was repaired by DBS Production Manager Kevin Steffey and his production crew. This home is now healthy, safe, and comfortable!
