This dirt crawl space in Goderich, ON was in need of some help! Our team was able to encapsulate, insulate, dehumidify and clean up this space. It's now dry and clean, helping this entire home to be more healthy in the air its owners breathe.

We also installed DC315 thermal barrier over the spray foam, which gives the foam that bright white look. 

Problem: This crawl space needed new support columns, an encapsulation system and a new access. The floors were saggy and the crawl space itself was in awful condition.

Solution: Install new supports to hold up the floors in the home. Put a sump pump in to relieve hydrostatic pressure beneath the ground and install a Turtl (crawl space access- see Photo Gallery). We cleaned out all organic material and the old insulation and encapsulated with our 20mm Clean Space.

A vapour barrier or an encapsulation system, is crucial in a dirt floor crawl space. Isolating the home from the earth is 1 step of 4 in fixing the issue! The barrier needs to be engineered to sit on dirt and not breakdown and become brittle.
