Crawlspace Encapsulation in Columbia, MD

This homeowner contacted us and wanted someone to come and see what we could do to make her home more efficient, she made the right call by contacting us! We sent Jack, one of our Home Comfort Specialists, to assess what could be done. After Jack inspected her home, he came to the conclusion that encapsulating the crawlspace and adding insulation to the attic would make a huge difference. We started in the crawlspace by removing the old insulation and any debris that was in the way. Next, we added a new 20mil vapor barrier to help block and moisture from seeping through the ground and into the home. Finally, once the vapor barrier is installed, we spray foam the walls to prevent any moisture seeping though the foundation while also acting as an insulator. We generally spray 2-3 inches on the walls to make sure the crawl is well insulated. Now the crawl is looking good and working to keep her home as efficient as possible.

The homeowner called us weeks after to let us know that she has felt a huge difference and her energy bill was much lower!
