Crawl Space Repair in Garnet Valley, PA
Challenge
A homeowner in Garnet Valley, PA, contacted us with concerns about their crawl space. The space was unkempt, with old, ineffective insulation that had become a source of energy inefficiency and potential health hazards. The poor condition of the crawl space was causing significant concerns about the home's energy efficiency, as well as the air quality within the living spaces. Moisture, pests, and poor insulation had allowed drafts and humidity to infiltrate the home, compromising comfort and potentially leading to mold growth. The homeowner sought a solution that would not only clean up and insulate the crawl space but also improve the overall air quality and energy efficiency of the home.
Solution
Upon receiving the homeowner’s call, our dedicated Customer Care team promptly scheduled an inspection. Our System Design Specialist, Tim visited the home, thoroughly evaluating the crawl space. Our team’s experience with crawl space repairs guided us in proposing a comprehensive solution to address the multiple issues identified.
We recommended the installation of our CleanSpace liner, SilverGlo insulation, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier system. These high-quality products would work together to fully address the crawl space's challenges, transforming it into a clean, dry, and energy-efficient environment.
-
CleanSpace Liner: The first step was installing the CleanSpace liner, a durable, moisture-resistant barrier designed to keep moisture and pests out of the crawl space. This would not only improve the integrity of the space but also prevent any future issues with mold and mildew.
-
SilverGlo Insulation: We then installed SilverGlo insulation panels on the walls. These panels feature a reflective surface that helps to maintain the temperature in the crawl space, keeping the cold out during winter and preserving the warmth within the home. This improved insulation directly enhanced the home's energy efficiency.
-
SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier: To combat high humidity levels and prevent mold growth, we also installed the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. This powerful system helps maintain optimal humidity levels, ensuring that the crawl space remains dry and healthy, which in turn improved the overall air quality throughout the home.
A skilled team of installers, led by our foreman, Bernie carried out the installation with precision, ensuring minimal disruption to the homeowner’s daily life. The comprehensive solution provided not only a cleaner, healthier crawl space but also a significant boost to the home's energy efficiency and air quality. The homeowner was left with a transformed crawl space that would support long-term comfort and savings.
