Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This crawl space in Philomont was damp and had little to no insulation. This was causing floors above it to be abnormally cold and the duct work to freeze. In warm months, the duct work would sweat. After our team performed this incredible crawl space encapsulation, the crawl is now totally dry and encapsulated. The floors above will remain warm in the winter, the duct work will no longer freeze/sweat, and the reduced humidity levels will eliminate the possibility of mold growth. 

This Lincoln, VA homeowner was interested in several comfort solutions for their home.  The lower level floors are always cold in the winter, and seemed drafty.  Plus, the house was always humid and clammy.

We evaluated the situation and found crawl space encapsulation would be the best solution.

Homeowners in Lovettsville, VA saw the state of their crawl space and knew they needed to give us a call right away. The existing insulation was hanging down, there was water infiltration, and there were signs of pests. The 3 Pros professionals started by removing the old, yucky insulation and then installed a combination of SmartSump, SmartPipe, and drainage matting. Next, we installed our CleanSpace Encapsulation System. Our CleanSpace system reduces moisture and humidity below the home, improves indoor air quality, and significantly reduces heat loss through the floor and wall when combined with insulation. 

This basement/crawl space door was old and the wood was rotting in some spots. The homeowners were looking to make their home more comfortable and part of that process was creating a better air seal for the lower areas of the home.  This new door was insulated and air sealed and will lock in a way that helps eliminate any air flow in and around the edges and frame.  This can help to keep external air and temperatures from impacting the air inside of the home and can keep rodents or other critters from entering.  

This Hamilton VA crawl space was in need of a transformation.  The existing treatments for water and insulation were not working.  The crawl space had open vents and fiberglass insulation strips lining the ceiling.  Open vents allow external air, allergens, dust and temperature fluctuations as well as moisture.  Insulation strips dont properly insulate as they can allow air and temperature to move between them, up to the floors above.  Our production crew removed the old insulation, sealed up the vents, attached Silver Glo Insulation panels to the walls of the crawl space, used Zyp Foam to air seal the panels and then applied Spray Foam to the rim joists of the home, sealing off any other external air and temperatures from outside.
