Basement Insulation in Mechanicsville, MD

Before We Got Started

Before We Got Started

Here is the basement before we got started. With no insulation in the rim joist, along with old drafty windows made the humidity hard to regulate in this basement.

Sealing the Windows

Sealing the Windows

To avoid replacing the windows in the basement, we use our SilverGlo foam board to cover the windows, which seals any aps around the window, as well as helping to keep humidity out.

Time to Spray Foam

Time to Spray Foam

The next step in the project is to spray foam the rim joist of the basement. This ads 2 inches insulation to the area of the basement that allows the majority of external temperatures and humidity to enter the basement.

The final step in this project is installing the brand new Aprilaire dehumidifier. This helps regulate and keep the humidity in the basement at a consistent 50-55% humidity. This basement is now a fully functional storage area and helping to regulate humidity not just in the basement, but the whole house.
