Before & After Photos

The owner of this home in Fridley, MN had a recommendation to encapsulate their crawlspace to mitigate radon radiation and help warm the living space floors. They also had issues with pests. Looking for a solution, they reached out to DBS.

A Design Specialist went to the home to conduct a free no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, the Design Specialist generated a free quote for our Crawlspace Encapsulation Service.

A DBS Foreman led the installation on this project with assistance from a crew. Together they first installed a layer of dimpled drainage matting to help regulate water flow underneath the layers of material. Next, they laid down panels of TerraBlock™ foam insulation for blocking frost. Finally, they sealed the space with CleanSpace® water vapor barrier. To finish the project, the crew sprayed closed-cell polyurethane spray foam insulation on the vertical walls of the crawlspace.

Now that the crawlspace has been properly encapsulated, the homeowner will be able to relax more comfortably in their warm, healthy home.

DBS recently completed a garage insulation project in Minneapolis, MN, using our high-quality spray foam product. The homeowner, an avid DIY enthusiast, wanted to transform their garage into a functional space for small projects. Uneven floors with cracks made moving tools and materials a challenge, while poor insulation left the garage too cold to work in during the harsh Minnesota winters. Our team addressed his concerns in two separate projects. We addressed his insulation concerns by providing durable spray foam insulation, ensuring the garage can retain heat efficiently. Now, this homeowner can enjoy a warm, comfortable, and functional space for their projects all year round!

The owner of this home in Minneapolis, MN had issues with pools of water in their crawl space. Their pipes had frozen over many times, and they were becoming frustrated with the issue. In hopes of finding a solution, the homeowner reached out to DBS.

Design Specialist Henry Jungbaur went to the property to conduct a free no-obligation estimate. After a thorough inspection, Henry noticed that there was a lot of DIY plumbing work that was done underneath the home, and whoever did it had obviously not done any of it correctly. He informed the homeowner about our Crawl Space Encapsulation service and mentioned that it may help their living spaces feel warmer, and protect their crawl space from more water damage.

Foreman Nicholas Woods II led the installation of this project with help from a crew. Together the crew sprayed closed-cell polyurethane spray foam on the interior walls of the crawl space to air seal and insulate. Next, they created a better drainage field in the crawl space by leveling out the dirt in some areas and installed a SmartDrain® for water removal. Finally, they installed a layer of CleanSpace® water vapor barrier to complete the system.

Now that the crawl space has been encapsulated, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind knowing that their crawl space will stay warmer and drier.
