This home in Mercer, WI was first built in 1907. After owning this property since the 1990's, they've always noticed significant inssues with temperature and humidity levels i nthe home. After recently seeing mice in the home's crawl space, they homeowner reached out to us about our Dr. Energy Saver® service for crawl space encapsulation. 

Design Specialist Henry Jungbauer visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate. DBS Foreman Orrin Sundberg and his prodution crew place a drainage layer and vapor barrier in the crawl space. This will prevent moisture as well as pests from entering the home via the crawl space.

Keeping your crawl space dry can also significantly reduce long-term damage to the wooden building material supporting the structure. From there, they applied closed-cell spray foam insulation to the rim joists where the crawl space was releasing cold air into the main level of the home. 

The owner was happy with the work done, and how it resulted in a great improvement of this home's overall health.

Job Stories From Mercer, WI
Piering and Crawlspace in Mercer, WI

Recently, we undertook a project in Mercer, WI that proved both fulfilling and transformative. The homeowners had just moved into their ideal home, eager to craft it into a cozy, year-round sanctuary for their family. However, they soon recognized that their crawl space required immediate attention to align with their vision. Beneath the house lay a vast, untamed area in need of inspection. Concerns about humidity and unmanaged elements hinted at potential energy inefficiencies and unwelcome pests. Our objective was clear: to ensure this crawl space no longer hindered the homeowners' goal of a snug, all-season dwelling.

 

Following a thorough evaluation by our System Design Specialist, we devised a comprehensive strategy. Step one involved installing our CleanSpace® liner, engineered to repel moisture and foster a healthier environment from the ground up. Next, our team strategically placed SmartJack® support beams to reinforce the foundation. This dual approach aimed to rectify sagging floors, ensuring stability and long-term peace of mind.

 

Throughout the project, ongoing communication between our team and the homeowners underscored our commitment to delivering not just solutions, but an exceptional customer experience. As our skilled installers worked, the once-neglected space began to evolve into a critical component of the home's structural integrity and energy efficiency. By the time we completed our work and tidied the site, the transformation was evident.

 

The homeowners were delighted, now proud possessors of a space that not only bolstered their home's functionality but promised increased comfort and energy savings as winter approached. Their appreciation served as a heartening reminder of why we cherish our work—making a lasting impact in the lives and homes of our community.

The owner of this home in Mercer, WI reached out to us looking for a solution to keep their wet basement dry.

After taking several measurements and photos Henrik created a quote for our WaterGuard® System. The WaterGuard® system is a french drain style waterproofing solution and it is installed along the interior perimeter of basements to collect water from the footings of the home to dispose of it into a sump pump. The system would help ensure that the basement stays drier during wet seasons.
