Sealing Up a Crawl Space in Plymouth, MA
Challenge
This homeowner in Plymouth, MA wanted to prepare his home for the summer months. Particularly because the area can get humid depending on the weather, so one of his main goals was to install a vapor barrier in his crawl space. Only issue, he lacked the expertise and knowledge on how to properly encapsulate a crawl space, so he looked online for professional help!
After coming across our website, he contacted us to receive a free estimate from one of our inspectors. Upon the day of the inspection, our professional carefully assessed the crawl space and proposed that our team can properly seal the interior with CleanSpace vapor barrier. He noted that this will help prevent moisture intrusion, helps control humidity and enables the crawl space to be more usable for storage. Also, he proposed to insulate the walls with our SilverGlo since the homeowner's current insulation was falling apart. After hearing the benefits, the homeowner was happy to agree and awaited the transformation!
Solution
On the day of the installation, our production team's first step was to completely clean out any remaining debris and old insulation in this crawl space. This ensures that this crawl space will be clean once we're done with it! After, they laid down drainage matting for the first layer to allow excess water to evenly drain, then on top, they rolled it all over with CleanSpace. Our CleanSpace covered every inch of this crawl space floor to make sure moisture isn't able to pass through. Then they cut pieces of SilverGlo to fit the interior walls for reliable insulation that will keep this crawl space at a consistent temperature all year long.
Once the job was complete, the homeowner was impressed at how cool it was down there! The air felt dry and clean, giving this homeowner an everlasting peace of mind!
