Musty Crawl Space Insulated and Encapsulated in Fort Gratiot, MI

A homeowner in Fort Gratiot, MI was struggling with moisture in the crawl space of their house, built in 1940. They moved into the home in 2022 and learned that the previous owner had a leak that ran into the crawl space. This had gone unattended and developed into a lingering, musty scent throughout the house. It was annoying to deal with and was affecting the dog’s breathing. Not to mention, the floors were extra cold this past winter. The homeowner decided enough was enough and it was time to get the crawl space fixed up. They called HomeSpec Waterproofing and Foundation Repair to discuss options during a free inspection.

One of HomeSpec’s senior project managers, Zach, took a walk-through, or crawl-through of the space and returned to the homeowner to talk. He explained that the best way to keep the home warm, save energy, and prevent moisture would be to insulate using SilverGlo™ and encapsulate with CleanSpace®. The homeowner liked these options and decided to let HomeSpec install the products that would resolve their issue. The crew that led this project was led by foreman Jon. After cleaning up once the job was complete, they left the house in better condition and with a happier homeowner.
