Attic Insulation and Crawl Space Encapsulation Services in Longville, MN Help to Warm Home and Lower Energy Bills
The owners of this home in Longville, MN noticed that their home was cooler than usual come wintertime. Looking for an energy-efficiency solution, the homeowners reached out to DBS.
A DBS Design Specialist went to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowners. After a thorough inspection, the Design Specialist provided them with a quote for our attic insulation and crawlspace encapsulation services.
A DBS Foreman led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they provided proper insulation to the attic by air sealing all leaking points and spraying a layer of polyurethane spray foam insulation over the floorboards. To finish the attic insulation, the crew blew in 18" of Tru-Soft™ cellulose insulation. In the crawl space, the crew encapsulated the crawl space by layering drainage matting, TerraBlock™ frost barrier, and CleanSpace® water vapor barrier. They finished off the crawl space by spraying polyurethane spray foam insulation onto the vertical walls.
Now that the home has been thoroughly insulated, the homeowners will be able to relax much more comfortably as they enjoy lower heating bills and warmer living spaces.
Cabin Sinking into Shoreline Stabilized with SmartJack®System and Crawl Space Encapsulated for Energy Efficiency in Hackensack, MN
This cabin in Hackensack, MN was struggling with its foundation. The shoreline is beginning to recede and as result, the foundation was sinking into the soil. Looking for a permanent stabilization solution to keep the lake home in the family, the owner reached out to DBS.
Design Specialist James Miller went out to the cabin to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, James advised the owners that DBS had a stabilization solution called the SmartJack®System that would support the cabin. He also recommended DBS Crawl Space Encapsulation services to waterproof the area.
Foreman Evan LaFontaine led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together they installed 3 SmartJack® supports and encapsulated the crawlspace in 3 layers. The first layer installed was a dimpled drainage matting to assist the flow of water beneath the insulation. Then they installed panels of TerraBlock™ foam insulation to protect the crawl space from frost. The last step in the encapsulation process was encasing the area in a layer of CleanSpace® water vapor barrier.
Now that the crawlspace has been permanently stabilized and encapsulated, the cabin owner will be able to get much more use out of their lake home retreat all year round without worry that it will sink into the lake.
