Successful Crawlspace Transformation in Bernardston, MA
Challenge
When this homeowner gave us a call from Bernardston, MA, we were informed that he had just bought this house, and after recent torrential downpours, his unfinished crawlspace had puddles. He wanted to address this issue as soon as he could to prevent any wood rot. The wood in his crawlspace is crucial to keep healthy because it's the reason the floor above is stable. So if those floor joists become damaged, a collapse could occur. Sometimes, mold growth is not easy to keep track of, but preventing it is the best step any homeowner can take to make sure their home stays healthy.
To begin the process of safeguarding this crawl space, our system design specialist made his way to the home to determine what the best solution was. After feeling the humidity himself, he knew that encapsulating this crawlspace with CleanSpace vapor barrier would soon erase these humidity problems.
Solution
The solution was determined, and our production crew was sent out to begin the job. They wanted to make sure everything was clean before the process of rolling out the CleanSpace. So the crew did a deep clean, taking out any remaining debris and trash. After, the encapsulation began, and to assist with the insulation, they also placed SIlverGlo wall insulation. This barrier will help maintain the temperature in this crawl space for the years to come!
After the job was done, the homeowner was more than relieved to have a crawl space that was safer to breathe in. But not only that, he would be able to safely store some wooden items here without the risk of mold ruining any of it. Nothing beats helping a customer, especially if we can ensure that their crawlspace will be safe.
