3 Pros Basement Systems Before & After Photos

When our team arrived to this job, the crawl space was in bad shape. Fiberglass batt insulation was falling off the ceilings/walls due to being so heavy with moisture. Not only was this making the insulation completely ineffective, it also was a breeding ground for pests and mold. To fix this situation and make the customer's home healthier, we removed the dirty insulation, installed drainage matting and CleanSpace Wallie to encapsulate the crawl space, and applied spray foam insulation to the walls and joists.

This Herndon, VA home had a need for crawl space improvement.  Improved insulation and sealing the crawl space off from unconditioned outdoor air was the solution identified by our sales pro who inspected the home.   The production crew removed the old ineffective insulation. After that, they applied spray foam insulation to the rim joists to help make sure that the rooms above the crawlspace were able to maintain a normal temperature. Finally, the crew installed spray foam on the crawlspace walls as the primary form of insulation to keep the home comfortable year-round.

This Herndon VA home had a vented crawl space that had insulation falling from the ceiling of the crawl space.  That insulation was meant to help control the temperature of the floors and rooms above but was not doing the job.  The crawl space being vented meant that external air was able to come into the home and bring with it allergens and dust along with whatever outside temperatures were happening.  Our production team removed all of the old insulation, sealed up the air vents and then used spray foam to insulate the walls and rim joist of the crawl space.  this turned the area in a controlled space with no impact from outside temperatures or air.  Although taken at slightly different angles and distances, these images are of the same exact corner of the crawl space before and after our team did their work.  

This home in Herndon VA had a crawl space that had become very nasty over the years.  Uncontrolled air flow lead to humidity issues and excessive moisture.  The failed insulation was leading to cold floors above in the winter and the musty smell from the crawl space was noticeable in the rooms of the home above.  Our team was able to clean out the old insulation, level out the dirt floors, close off and air seal the vents to outside and then properly insulate and seal the rest of the crawl space.  Improved air quality in the home above and reduced energy use were the results.  The crawl space is now clean and safe to use for storage if needed.  

This home in Reston VA was in need of a whole basement performance improvement project. In addition to wall crack repairs and waterproofing, the walls received a treatment of insulation panels, air sealed to keep the cold sub terranean walls from impacting the comfort inside of the home.
