Crawl Space Encapsulated in Trenton, MI

These homeowners contacted HomeSpec because their crawl space was very damp and needed to be waterproofed.

Our crew encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace system by completely sealing it off from water and air leaks with a vapor barrier. This improves the air quality of the upstairs and will help the home use about 20% less energy.

Crawl Space Insulated in Wayne, Mi

This homeowner in Wayne Mi. had noticed a slight uptake in their energy bills over the years, but their home never felt the right temperature and felt as if there was always a draft.

Project manager, Robert, used his expertise to conduct a thorough inspection of the house, which ultimately led him to their crawl space. That's where he found their aged and failing fiberglass insulation to be the problem, not to mention the debris and random sheet metal scattered about. While fiberglass batt insulation is the cheapest and easiest DIY choice for insulating the crawl space, there are several problems with using fiberglass batts in a vented crawl space including. Fiberglass can absorb water and lose its R-value when wet, air can easily pass through it, leading to uncomfortable living conditions and decayed or wet fiberglass insulation can lead to mold and other health hazards.

Robert recommended SilverGlo insulation. SilverGlo features a radiant barrier that reflects heat back into your crawl space for energy savings and is made with a mix of polystyrene foam and graphite to resist heat flow.

The crew cleaned out the crawl space, removing debris and replacing the failing old fiberglass insulation with the shiny SilverGlo insulation featured here. The homeowners were happy to report a more notably more comfortable living condition after the installation of this heat-reflective insulation. If your energy bill has been increasing, but your home still feels uncomfortable or drafty, it may be worth looking into reinsulating your crawl space.
