Crawl Space Insulation in International Falls Prevents Freezing Pipes

This International Falls home was built in the early 2000s. Although the crawl space was fit with fiberglass batting, it wasn't enough to prevent the sump pump and pipes from freezing during the winter months.

DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo visited the home to provide a thorough inspection of the crawl space. He provided a free estimate for a new insulation plan including our closed-cell spray foam. The homeowners decided to move forward with the plan and our Dr. Energy Saver Team got to work!

Nick Woods II and his crew began by removing the existing fiberglass batting. From there, they applied closed cell spray foam to the vertical crawl space walls. Our foam insulation expands as it's applied, air sealing and insulating. 

The homeowners were happy with the work done and now have an insulated crawl space to protect their home from cold winter temperatures. 

Sinking Crawlspace in Kettle River, MN Home Stabilized with DBS SmartJackĀ® System

The owner of this home in Kettle River, MN noticed issues extending from their sagging crawl space so they reached out to DBS looking for a solution.

Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, Henrik generated a quote for our SmartJack® System.

A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed 11  SmartJack® supports and the main steel beam to provide permanent stabilization to the home.

Now that the home has been properly stabilized, the homeowner can relax more comfortably in their safe environment.
