A Cleaner, Drier & Better-Insulated Crawl Space in Vancouver
Challenge
The crawl space needed improvements to help protect the home from moisture, drafts, and energy loss. The area also had loose debris and spider webs that needed to be cleaned before the new protection and insulation could be installed.
Solution
The team began by cleaning the crawl space, wiping down heating ducts and sewer lines, removing spider webs, and clearing loose debris from the floor.
New insulation was installed along the foundation walls and rim joist areas, with seams and gaps carefully sealed to help reduce drafts and improve energy efficiency.
A drainage layer was then installed across the crawl space floor to help manage ground moisture and provide added durability. A protective moisture barrier was placed over the area and carefully sealed around the foundation walls, footings, and support piers.
The finished crawl space is now cleaner, drier, better insulated, and better protected against moisture and energy loss.
