Crawl Space Insulation for Orchard Hill homeowners
Many Orchard Hill homes sit on open brick piers with no perimeter wall, so the crawl space is exposed to outside air on every side. In that situation the floor is effectively an exterior surface, and it behaves like one all winter.
Under the house, clay over rock keeps water in the top few feet of soil, so the ground stays damp and the air above it humid. Insulation put between the joists in those conditions absorbs moisture and gives up within a few years.
So the job here usually starts with enclosing. We build and seal a perimeter, cover the ground, and then insulate that perimeter so the crawl space joins the conditioned part of the house. It is more work than a straight insulation swap and it is the version that lasts.
Every Orchard Hill home gets the same crawl space insulation scope, and the written price says exactly what that covers.
- Removes old, damaged insulation
- Moisture-appropriate materials
- Warmer floors, lower energy bills
- Pairs perfectly with encapsulation
