Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Alexandria, VA Crawlspace Transformation

  This Alexandria, VA home was suffering from an unpleasant odor permeating throughout the house and rooms above the crawlspace being too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. This impacted the comfort level of the home. Our sales professional Jason went out to the property to perform a full home inspection and identify the best possible solution to the homeowner’s discomfort. After completing the inspection Jason explained to the homeowners that one cause of their discomfort was an improperly waterproofed crawlspace that was allowing organic growth and water damage to occur. He determined that the best course of action to end their discomfort would be to install the CleanSpace insulation and waterproofing system to prevent any chance of further mold growth or water damage and keep the home more comfortable. After the homeowners agreed to Jason's solution our service crews went out to get to work on the home. The crews started by removing the old insulation that was not only ineffective at keeping the home comfortable but was also trapping moisture that encouraged mold growth. Then they installed special TerraBlock floor insulation that can't be damaged by water and does not support the growth of mold, mildew or leading to rot. After that, they installed SilverGlo rigid foam insulation in the rim joist to keep the rooms above the crawlspace comfortable year-round. Finally, the crew installed the CleanSpace covering on the walls and floor to create a vapor-tight barrier that maximizes leak protection and minimizes the opportunity for mold growth and water damage.
