This homes crawlspace was in need of repair. It's old fiberglass insulation was falling in pieces to the floor. To solve the issue the homeowner wanted to encapsulate the space. After doing research they chose to move forward with this using John's Waterproofing crawlspace encapsulation.
The crawlspace needs to be insulated properly. So many people believe attaching fiberglass along the underside of your home will keep your home insulated. However, it absorbs moisture, holding it against the homes wooden beams, and allowing mold to fester. This home suffered from this issue, and to address it, the homeowners needed to tackle the mold and what caused the mold so it wouldn't end up coming back. To keep their home healthy, a full encapsulation was installed, properly insulating the home and preventing mold.
This home had a mess of fiberglass insulation in the crawl space. Without realizing when this happened, the homeowners were shocked to glance under their home and seeing the mess that covered the crawl space. Knowing this wasn't healthy for the home, they called up John's Waterproofing to learn about encapsulation and how it could help their home.
Fiberglass insulation holds onto water moisture and becomes an ideal place for mold spores to grow when it is left open to the elements. To insulate a crawlspace we recommend our encapsulation. This has Terrablock laid over the dirt floor, and either SilverGlo or Spray Foam along the foundation walls.
