The homeowner in Edina had a crawl space beneath their home that was damp, musty, and causing the floors of the main level to be cold. Moisture was creeping in from the ground and perimeter, causing humid air to rise into the living areas. They noticed a faint musty odor, occasional pest signs, cold (or uneven) floors above, and worried about wood rot, mold and structural issues. They called you because they wanted to turn that crawl space from a liability into a clean, healthy space.
After our CleanSpace encapsulation, the crawl space is now fully sealed: a heavy-duty vapor barrier has been applied to the floor and walls, vents have been sealed, and any necessary drainage or dehumidification systems have been installed. The result: no more humid air intrusion, no musty smell, improved indoor air quality. The homeowners notice more comfortable floors, fewer hidden pests, and lower humidity under the house. The crawl space is now usable for storage and the home’s value and structural health are better protected.

This Edina homeowner wanted to make their basement brighter, safer, and more functional. However, their old, small window wasn’t cutting it. Not only did it let in very little natural light, but it also didn’t meet current egress safety requirements. That’s when they reached out to our team for help.
Our crew installed a RockWell egress window well, designed to look great while offering reliable safety and durability. The RockWell’s stone-look design blends seamlessly with the home’s exterior, and its sturdy construction ensures long-lasting protection from the elements. With the clear SunHouse cover, debris and rain are kept out, while sunlight can still pour in.
Now, this Edina basement feels more open and inviting, a space that’s both code-compliant and comfortable. The homeowners love how much brighter the area feels and appreciate the peace of mind knowing there’s a safe, easy exit in case of emergency.
Another beautiful and practical transformation, done right by our team!
