This Seaford crawl space had water running through it, after the installation of a drainage system, the crawl space was encapsulated with Spray Foam Insulation.
This crawl space had standing water, mold, a damaged vapor barrier and falling insulation. Our team encapsulated the space with a new vapor barrier, we added spray foam insulation where necessary and installed a dehumidifier and sump pump. Now this crawl space is sure to be mold and water-free!
Brad & Bryan did a great job helping this Newport News, VA, Homeowner with their attic! This client just moved into their new home and, during inspection, found that they needed more insulation in the attic. (Having enough attic insulation means being more comfortable in your home and a more energy-efficient home!) After reviewing their options, the homeowner insulated the attic with an R-49 of blown-in cellulose insulation and a David Lewis Pull-Down Stair Hatch Cover.
The David Lewis Pull Down Stair cover insulates and air seals around the attic access. Otherwise, this is essentially a big hole in your attic's insulation allowing heat transfer and air loss between your attic and living space.
This attic had existing loose fiberglass insulation with an R-value of 3.2 per inch. This material allows air to easily pass through it and escape into the unconditioned attic and out of the home. For this homeowner, we installed an R-38 of blown-in cellulose insulation. Cellulose is more dense than the loose fiberglass, is 85% recycle material, and is fire retardant due to being manufactured with borate, a substance that deters pests.
