Before & After Photos

Folks with a family cabin in Cook, MN want to keep their favorite retreat in tip-top shape for years to come. The cabin's dirt crawl space was retaining moisture, harboring some mold, and affecting air quality. They reached out to DBS about our crawl space encapsulation service.

Design Specialist Jacob Nustad-Peluso is an expert in energy-saving solutions and visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate. Foreman Joe Harris and his production crew installed a CleanSpace® vapor barrier on top of drainage matting in the dirt crawl space. Because this space was so prone to water, our team also installed a TripleSafe™ sump pump as well as a new external drainage line. 

This cabin now has a permanent solution to protect their cabin against moisture build-up in the crawl space.

DBS received a call from a client in Longville, MN looking to upgrade their crawl space because it had not been maintained in years, they also said their home was often cold, and wanted to add insulation to the area from our Dr. Energy Saver spray foam services. DBS was able to upgrade the crawl space to an area that will be maintained for years into the future, while also adding insulation to keep cold air from entering the room. DBS also made sure the crawl space was dry by installing a drainage matting to the crawl space floor. Now we can ensure that the home will have a dry, updated crawl space for years into the future.

This lakeside homeowner in Alexandria, MN faced the issue of a crawlspace taking on water, thanks to rising lake levels overwhelming their sump pump system.

After our Appointment Center set up a free, no-obligation inspection with Design Specialist Henrik. Once a through look and solution was provided, our production team, led by Foreman Shane, introduced CleanSpace©. This encapsulation system is known for transforming damp, murky crevices into dry, usable spaces. As seen in the after photo, this intervention not only safeguards the area from moisture but also equips the home with an added layer of protection for a long-lasting solution. 

A homeowner in Hackensack, MN reached out to DBS regarding the dirty crawl space area in their home. They were concerned with moisture and odors that were entering the home, and were seeking a solution. DBS was able to send out a crew to install the CleanSpace® system to cover the area. This lining is spread throughout the crawl space for moisture control. This installation was just one of several steps in the project, and will surely help with the condition of the crawl space and the overall home. 

Getting ready for retirement in Hackensack, MN, meant prepping a home for year-round comfort, efficiency, and critter-proofing. The before photo shows a rather unruly crawl space, barely recognizable from the clean, sealed area you see after. Our team installed CleanSpace®, a durable liner that transformed the space, making it not just more efficient and warm but also unwelcoming to unwanted guests. As seen in the results, we ensured the homeowner could look forward to a secure and efficient retirement home.
