Crawl Space Encapsulation in Waldorf, MD
Shakira's Crawl Space in her Waldorf, MD home was n poor shape and was beginning to affect the comfort and health of her home. She took a great first step by calling Complete Home Solutions, Southern, Maryland's leading crawl space experts. After a throughout review from our Home Comfort Specialist, it was determined that a full crawl space encapsulation would solve the problems Shakira was facing. On the day of the encapsulation, our Home Comfort Technicians began by removing the old vapor barrier and insulation from the crawl space., this provided an empty area to begin the transformation. They then installed our Clean space vapor barrier which when bolted to the walls of the crawl space creates a seal that prevents any moisture or pest from entering the crawl from below. Following the installation of the vapor barrier, our Technicians used a 2 part closed cell spray foam to insulate and seal the walls. This process restricts any air from coming through the vents or cinder blocks in the crawl. The final step of this encapsulation is to install a dehumidifier that regulates the humidity to a consistent 50-55%. These improvements will not only help the temperatures on the first floor, they will also help with air quality throughout the home as well.

Incorrectly Installed Insulation in Waldorf, MD
This homeowner in Waldorf, MD felt that their home was not performing well and wasn't as energy efficient as possible.
Our home comfort specialist evaluated the home and found that the attic had incorrectly installed batt insulation that was causing air to leak outside the home from the attic. When batt insulation is installed incorrectly, the insulation cannot achieve their rated R-value and this contributed to the homeowners feeling of discomfort and drafts!
Our production crews reinstalled the batt insulation correctly and installed blown-in TruSoft Cellulose Insulation overtop the batt insulation to make the home more airtight and energy efficient!
With the batt insulation installed correctly and new blown-in TruSoft Cellulose Insulation added to the attic, the homeowner is feeling more comfortable and has less drafty rooms and lower electric bills.
Crawl Space Repair in Waldorf, MD
This home in Waldorf was suffering from condensation issues and standing water in the crawl space. Condensation in a crawl space can lead to mold and reduces the effectiveness of the insulation.
To fix this problem our Production Crews came in and removed all the wet insulation and replaced it with new fiberglass insulation. Once the new insulation was installed, a new vapor barrier was put in to seal off any excess moisture from the ground.
The homeowners are feeling many benefits from having these repairs performed - indoor air quality is much better because the vapor barrier keeps the dirty crawlspace air and water from coming into the crawl space.
Attic Insulation for Garage Loft in Waldorf, MD
This home had a detached garage that connected to the upstairs dwellins. These types of garage attics tend to be unconditioned spaces with improper insulation. The unconditioned spaces are often unsealed so they allow large quantities of air to leak out of the house, meaning all that cold air your A/C Unit is producing is just leaking out of your home. Our Production Crews worked in the attic and air sealed all the top plates and knee walls to stop air from leaking out of the garage attic. Once the area was air sealed our crews blew in Cellulose Insulation to insulate the area to stop air from leaking out of the house from the living areas into the garage!
The attic is now providing a better thermal barrier between conditioned interior space and unconditioned garage and providing a much more comfortable living space for the occupants!
