Justin's Crawl Space in his Owings, MD home was in poor shape and was beginning to affect the comfort and health of her home. She took a great first step by calling Complete Home Solutions, Southern, Maryland's leading crawl space experts. After a throughout review from our Home Comfort Specialist, it was determined that a full crawl space encapsulation would solve the problems Justin was facing. On the day of the encapsulation, our Home Comfort Technicians began by removing the old vapor barrier and insulation from the crawl space., this provided an empty area to begin the transformation. They then installed our Clean space vapor barrier which when bolted to the walls of the crawl space creates a seal that prevents any moisture or pest from entering the crawl from below. Following the installation of the vapor barrier, our Technicians used a 2 part closed cell spray foam to insulate and seal the walls. This process restricts any air from coming through the vents or cinder blocks in the crawl. The final step of this encapsulation is to install a dehumidifier that regulates the humidity to a consistent 50-55%. These improvements will not only help the temperatures on the first floor, but they will also help with air quality throughout the home as well.

When our Home Comfort Specialist arrived this homeowner’s crawl space had some old and damaged lining, the insulation was falling out of the ceiling, some water damage and there were air leaks everywhere. Which meant that he was losing energy, trying to keep his house warm. Air from the outside was able to freely move into his house from the crawl space area. Our Production Team at Complete Home Solutions was able to fix this and make his home efficient and comfortable again!
We gave the homeowner a Home Energy Audit to let him know what we could do to upgrade his crawl space. We ended up taking out all the old insulation, sealing up the vents and penetrations into the crawl space, and performing our CleanSpace Encapsulation. This made a huge difference! The homeowner did not have to fight to keep his house warm anymore (and the air that the family was breathing in was much cleaner and healthier).
This customer was trying to finish his basement but before doing so thought it would be a good idea to properly insulate it.
Our home comfort specialist at Complete Home Solutions provided the homeowner with many solutions to insulate this space. In the end the homeowner chose the option that we felt would be best - applying spray foam insulation to the walls. This way the new basement will be effectiviely air sealed and insulated providing years of comfort.
Rosemarie was struggling with comfort issues throughout her Lusby, MD home. She called Complete Home Solutions and had a home energy audit conducted to determine ways to address the problem. After a thorough inspection by our Home Comfort Specialist. It was determined that there were two spots of concern in the house, the attic and crawl space. Rosemarie elected to first address the crawl space condition. With open vents, an old inefficient vapor barrier, and patchy insulation, this was causing humidity issues in the summer months and giving cold air a way into the home in the winter. On the day of the installation our Home Comfort Technicians began by removing all of the old batt insulation from the floor joist above, before laying down our 20mill CleanSpace vapor barrier, which when bolted to the wall creates a seal on the ground of the crawls space, making sure moisture and critters can not make their way in from below. They then sprayed the area with our 2 part closed cell spray foam insulation to all of the exterior walls. The final step to this encapsulation was to install a dehumidifier which was set to a consistent 50-55% humidity. Rosemarie noticed an immediate difference in the floor temperature of his home and can't wait to see the difference as the weather outside begins to change.
