James D. from Westland, Michigan contacted the HomeSpec team because not only was his crawl space high in moisture, but the pipes would freeze in the winter and the floors above would be freezing cold.
Project manager Ben Gabowitz found the best method to help solve this homeowners problem - crawl space encapsulation and insulation. The encapsulation process seals off the crawl space from moisture with a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, and the SilverGlo Rigid Foam Insulation creates an air-tight seal to prevent cold air from entering. It's a win-win situation!
If you too experience a cold home in the winter that's difficult to heat, or freezing cold floors above your crawl space, then you might benefit from encapsulating and insulating your crawl space as well – to warm up your home and improve your energy efficiency!
