Our Crawl Space Cleaning Process
Insulation and Vapor Barrier Removal
First, we remove your damaged insulation and vapor barrier.
Clearing & Cleaning
We clear your crawl space of dead rodents, feces, and leftover pieces of insulation. Next, we clean dust, dirt, and debris.
Sanitization
Once your crawl space is cleared and cleaned, we sanitize with our organic cleaning solution. This compound eliminates mold, mildew, fungi, and bacteria.
Insulation Installation
After your crawl space is cleaned and sanitized, your new insulation will be put in. This is important as 40% of your home’s airflow comes from your crawl space. We use 16 or 24 metal ware insulation support.
Vapor Barrier Installation
In addition to new insulation, we will install a new vapor barrier in your crawl space. Vapor barriers are important for the Puget Sound area, as they prevent moisture and water damage. We typically install a 6 ML rodent-resistant vapor barrier.
Benefits of Crawl Space Cleaning For Your Puget Sound Home
