Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Moldy and Gross Crawlspace Needs Attention, Harvard, MA
This homeowner in Harvard, Massachusetts, wanted to seal off an inaccessible crawlspace. They have seen mold growth and the crawlspace is covered in webs and falling insulation. The homeowners want to eliminate the mold and seal off the space. They called EFS for a free inspection from one of our trained Design Specialists. Our specialist Tom Armano met with the homeowner and inspected the crawlspace and tested the moisture levels inside. After Tom's inspection of the crawlspace, he recommended installing CleanSpace, Drainage Matting, SaniDry Sedona, Terrablock, SilverGlo, and Rim Joist Insulation to lower the moisture levels and encapsulate and block off the crawlspace.
Our Installation Team led by Steve Dumais began by cleaning out any debris from inside the crawlspace. While they were clearing out debris they also resecured some of the falling insulation. Next, the team installed the Drainage Matting and Terrablock onto the crawlspace floors and installed the SilverGlo on the walls. After those were secured the team then installed CleanSpace over both the floors and the walls. After the CleanSpace was installed the team then sprayed our Rim Joist Insulation right above the CleanSpace to fully encapsulate the crawlspace. Lastly, the team installed our SaniDry Sedona which is a high-strength dehumidifier that will control the humidity. The homeowners have the ability to set the humidity to whatever they would like.
