Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Falling insulation in Siletz, Oregon
This homeowner in Siletz requested an estimate at a home show with us after discovering his insulation was wet and falling. Our inspector AJ DeLaRosa went under the home and found that their insulation had fallen in multiple locations and was soaking wet. Their vapor barrier was torn and ripped and due to the vents being blocked the humidity was very high.
AJ recommended our cleanspace system and spray foam insulation to keep the space clean and dry for the life of the home.
