Insulation in Tomball, TX
Crawl space encapsulation and vapor barrier work in Tomball tackles the single biggest hidden problem in this city’s older pier-and-beam homes: ground moisture wicking into floor framing and driving indoor humidity up for months at a time. Tomball’s hot, humid climate and large stock of 1970s-90s ranch-style houses mean attics run at R-11 to R-19 when current Zone 2A guidance calls for R-49 to R-60, and crawl spaces often have no moisture control at all. If your energy bills climb every summer and rooms never feel evenly cooled, call (855) 657-3403. We’ll diagnose exactly what your Tomball home needs, quote it upfront, and most jobs are done in one visit.
Why Tomball Homes Are Different
Tomball’s growth pattern created two very different housing eras that both need insulation work, just for opposite reasons. The oil-boom-era subdivisions built through the 1970s, 80s, and 90s near the older core typically have the original 3.5-inch fiberglass batts laid directly on the attic floor, now degraded and far below modern standards. Those attics are a near-automatic red flag on Harris County home inspection reports. Meanwhile, the master-planned communities pushing north and west from the 2000s and 2010s may look newer, but many were built to minimum code of their time and still fall short of what Zone 2A humidity demands.
Summer attic temperatures here routinely exceed 140-150°F, and dew points hover near 74-76°F for months. That combination means vapor management matters as much as raw R-value. Insulation installed without attention to how moisture moves through a Tomball attic can trap condensation and trigger mold within a single summer. Older properties near downtown Tomball that sit on pier-and-beam foundations have an additional layer of need: exposed floor joists over open, humid crawl spaces. Those homes lose conditioned air through the floor and pull damp, musty air up into the living space. Slab-on-grade houses do not have this problem, which is why a one-size-fits-all insulation bid rarely works across Tomball’s varied housing stock.
Our Main Tomball Services
These are the two services Tomball homeowners call about most often: attic insulation on under-insulated resale homes, and crawl space encapsulation on older pier-and-beam properties near the historic core.
Attic Insulation in Tomball
Most calls start because an inspection flagged R-11 to R-19 attic insulation, or because the upstairs rooms run 8-10 degrees hotter than downstairs in August. We remove or top up what’s there, then air seal and bring the attic to R-49 or R-60 using blown-in fiberglass or cellulose from proven manufacturers. Full details, local pricing, and what to expect on the day of the job are on our dedicated page for Attic Insulation in Tomball.

Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier in Tomball
Older Tomball homes near downtown that sit on pier-and-beam foundations deal with a problem slab homes never see: open ground under the house releasing moisture into the floor system all year. With dew points in the mid-70s for months at a time, that moisture condenses on joists and ductwork, feeds mold, and gets pulled into the house by the stack effect. Encapsulating the crawl space in Tomball means installing a heavy-duty vapor barrier over the dirt, sealing the perimeter, and usually adding insulation to the foundation walls and rim joists, so the space becomes dry, conditioned, and no longer drives humidity or musty odors into the living areas. If you are noticing buckling hardwood, persistent musty smells, or condensation on ducts in a pier-and-beam Tomball home, this is the fix. See what the full Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier service includes.
Crawl Space Vapor Barrier
Signs you need it
Musty smell that gets stronger in summer, condensation on air ducts or floor joists, or hardwood floors cupping in a pier-and-beam Tomball home.
What it costs in Tomball
Expect $1,100 to $2,400 depending on crawl space size, access, and the liner thickness required for your floor conditions.
How we do it
We remove standing debris, level high spots, install a 12-mil or heavier reinforced liner across the floor and up the foundation walls, and seal all seams with tape and mechanical fastening.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Signs you need it
High indoor humidity that resists dehumidification, visible mold or fungal growth on joists, or pest droppings in the crawl space.
What it costs in Tomball
Most Tomball pier-and-beam homes run $3,800 to $8,000 for full encapsulation, depending on whether insulation and a dehumidifier are added.
How we do it
We seal vents and rim joists, install the vapor barrier, add rigid or spray foam to foundation walls as specified, and condition the space with a dehumidifier sized for the square footage.
What Crawl Space Encapsulation & Vapor Barrier Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Crawl space vapor barrier only | $1,100 - $2,400 |
| Full encapsulation with liner | $3,800 - $8,000 |
| Crawl space insulation (walls/rim joists) | $1,500 - $4,000 |
| Dehumidifier (if specified) | Adds $1,000 - $2,500 |
How do I know if my Tomball crawl space needs encapsulation vs. just a vapor barrier?
If moisture problems are limited to ground evaporation, a barrier may do it. But if you have mold, standing water, or humidity coming through the rim joists, you need full encapsulation. Call (855) 657-3403 for an honest assessment; we won’t sell work your home doesn’t need.
Will encapsulation stop the musty smell in my Tomball home?
Yes, in nearly every case. The smell comes from moisture driving mold and decay in the crawl space. Sealing off ground moisture, drying the space, and interrupting the air pathway into the house fixes the source. Call (855) 657-3403 for an evaluation.
Spray Foam Insulation in Tomball
In Tomball, spray foam answers two problems at once: the 140°F-plus attic heat that cooks the upstairs in summer, and the humid air that drives mold and makes air conditioning work harder than it should. Closed-cell foam acts as an air barrier, vapor retarder, and insulation in one pass, which matters because many older Tomball homes in the 1970s-90s ranch tracts have batt insulation that is heat-loaded and full of gaps. Whether we spray the roofline to create a sealed, semi-conditioned attic, or we target rim joists and band boards in pier-and-beam homes, the advantage is the same: a single material that stops both thermal transfer and air movement. See the full range of what Spray Foam Insulation covers.
Open-Cell Spray Foam
Signs you need it
Upstairs rooms that never match the thermostat set point, noisy wind-driven air leaks, or an attic that turns into an oven by mid-afternoon.
What it costs in Tomball
Open-cell foam in a Tomball attic typically runs $1.00 to $2.25 per board foot installed, with most attic projects landing between $2,000 and $7,000 depending on depth and area.
How we do it
We prepare the roofline or wall cavities, apply open-cell foam to the specified thickness, then trim and check for voids before re-covering access points.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
Signs you need it
Flood-prone or high-humidity crawl spaces, rim joist condensation, or a customer who wants the highest R-value per inch in a limited cavity in a Tomball home.
What it costs in Tomball
Closed-cell foam runs $1.75 to $3.50 per board foot installed; rim joist packages in Tomball commonly fall between $1,500 and $4,000.
How we do it
We apply closed-cell foam in lifts to control curing, build to the specified thickness, and verify adhesion across rim joists, band boards, or roof decks.
What Spray Foam Insulation Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Open-cell spray foam (per board foot) | $1.00 - $2.25 |
| Closed-cell spray foam (per board foot) | $1.75 - $3.50 |
| Attic roofline spray (full envelope) | $2,000 - $7,000+ |
| Rim joist / band board package | $1,500 - $4,000 |
Is spray foam worth it in a Tomball attic that already has fiberglass batts?
Frequently yes. Batts have gaps at the top plates and penetrations that let hot, humid air move around them. Foam seals those paths and resists air movement, not just conduction. Call (855) 657-3403 for a thermal imaging look at your attic.
Can you spray foam my Tomball crawl space closed during the rainy season?
Yes. We pause if standing water is present, but closed-cell foam can be applied once the space is drained and prepped. Call (855) 657-3403 to talk through the crawl space sequence for your foundation type.
Blown-In Insulation in Tomball
Blown-in insulation is the most common retrofit for Tomball homes with shallow or degraded attic insulation, especially the 1970s-90s ranch tract homes around the older core that are still sitting at R-11 to R-19. Loose-fill fiberglass or cellulose gets blown over the existing attic floor to bring the assembly up to R-49 or R-60, covering the gaps and voids that old batts left behind. In Tomball’s humid climate, we pay close attention to keeping soffit vents open and making sure the added material does not trap moisture against the roof sheathing. Brands we blow regularly include Owens Corning, Johns Manville, and GreenFiber. Full scope details are on our Blown-In Insulation page.
Blown-In Cellulose
Signs you need it
An attic with uneven old insulation, frequent dust or pest issues, or rooms that cool down slowly at night in a Tomball home.
What it costs in Tomball
Cellulose top-ups in Tomball generally run $1,200 to $3,200 for a typical 1,500-2,500 square foot attic.
How we do it
We densify the material by depth and R-value target, install baffles at soffit vents as needed, and vacuum any overspray from the attic access.
Blown-In Fiberglass
Signs you need it
Homeowners who want a non-cellulose option, or attics that need a fast, clean top-up before a resale inspection in Tomball.
What it costs in Tomball
Blown-in fiberglass top-ups typically run $1,000 to $3,000 in Tomball, depending on target R-value and attic accessibility.
How we do it
We set depth markers, blow fiberglass to the specified R-49 or R-60 density, and keep the ridge and soffit ventilation clear throughout.
What Blown-In Insulation Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Blown-in cellulose attic top-up | $1,200 - $3,200 |
| Blown-in fiberglass attic top-up | $1,000 - $3,000 |
| Dense-pack wall retrofit | Adds $2,000 - $6,000 |
| Full attic removal + re-blow | $2,500 - $6,500+ |
How much blown-in insulation does a Tomball home need for our climate?
For IECC Zone 2A, we target R-49 to R-60 in an attic. That is roughly 16-20 inches of loose-fill fiberglass or 14-18 inches of cellulose, depending on settled density. Call (855) 657-3403 for a measured attic plan.
Can you top up my existing Tomball attic insulation without removing it?
Often yes. If the existing material is dry, uncontaminated, and below current R-value, we blow directly over it. We only recommend removal when there is moisture, pest contamination, or electrical safety concerns. Call (855) 657-3403 for an evaluation.
Radiant Barrier Installation in Tomball
Radiant barrier makes a measurable difference in Tomball because the enemy is solar gain: an attic at 140-150°F radiating heat down into the ceiling all afternoon. A foil radiant barrier stapled to the underside of the roof deck reflects most of that radiant heat back out, keeping the attic air and the ceiling surface noticeably cooler. On homes built before the 2000s in Tomball, we often find no radiant barrier at all, and on newer tract homes the factory-applied foil may be torn, painted over, or missing in large sections. Learn what the full Radiant Barrier Installation service includes.
Attic Radiant Barrier
Signs you need it
Second-floor rooms that get hot by early afternoon, an air conditioner that runs constantly from 2-7 p.m. in a Tomball summer, or bare roof decking visible from the attic.
What it costs in Tomball
Most Tomball attic radiant barrier installations run $800 to $2,500 depending on roof pitch, attic access, and square footage.
How we do it
We staple a double-sided foil to the rafters, leave a gap at the ridge and soffits for ventilation, and avoid contact with any uninsulated electrical wiring.
Radiant Barrier & Ventilation
Signs you need it
Hot attic air that never seems to move, high humidity readings in the attic, or older Tomball homes with undersized soffit or ridge venting.
What it costs in Tomball
Combined radiant barrier and ventilation upgrades in Tomball typically fall between $1,500 and $4,500, including new soffit baffles where needed.
How we do it
We check net free vent area first, add or clear soffit and ridge vents, then install the radiant barrier so the ventilation path stays open and effective.
What Radiant Barrier Installation Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Attic radiant barrier (foil to rafters) | $800 - $2,500 |
| Radiant barrier + ventilation upgrades | $1,500 - $4,500 |
| Roof deck radiant barrier sheathing (new construction) | $1,200 - $3,500 |
| Garage-facing radiant barrier | $400 - $1,200 |
Does radiant barrier really help in Tomball’s humidity?
Yes. Humidity challenges moisture management, but radiant barrier targets radiant heat, which is independent of humidity. You get a cooler attic and less evening heat re-radiation into the house. Call (855) 657-3403 for attic measurements.
Will a radiant barrier alone make my Tomball home comfortable?
It helps, but it is not a substitute for proper insulation and air sealing. The best Tomball attics combine R-49+ insulation with a radiant barrier and good soffit-to-ridge ventilation. Call (855) 657-3403 to design the package.
Insulation Removal & Replacement in Tomball
Tomball’s older homes often need insulation removed before new material goes in, especially when rodents have nested, the original 3.5-inch batts are water-stained from a roof leak, or decades of dust and debris have contaminated the loose fill. In a humid climate, contaminated insulation holds moisture and odor longer, and it can hide damage to wiring or top plates that should be addressed before re-insulating. For Tomball resale buyers, a clean removal and re-install is often the difference between an inspection objection and a closed sale. Browse the full Insulation Removal & Replacement scope.
Attic Insulation Removal
Signs you need it
Water stains on ceiling drywall, rodent droppings in the attic, or old batts compressed to a fraction of their original thickness in a Tomball home.
What it costs in Tomball
Attic removal in Tomball typically runs $1,200 to $3,500 for a standard single-story ranch, more for steep or tight attics.
How we do it
We use a commercial vacuum system to remove material to the deck, bag it for disposal, and leave the attic clean for inspection and air sealing.
Contaminated Insulation Removal
Signs you need it
Visible mold on insulation, persistent attic odor, or a home in Tomball where pests have nested in the batts or blown-in material.
What it costs in Tomball
Expect $1,500 to $4,500 when mold or pest contamination requires PPE and specialized disposal practices in Tomball.
How we do it
Our crew uses respirators, containment, and sealed bags, removes material to the deck, then sanitizes surfaces before any new insulation is installed.
What Insulation Removal & Replacement Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Attic insulation removal | $1,200 - $3,500 |
| Contaminated or moldy insulation removal | $1,500 - $4,500 |
| Vermiculite or old insulation removal | $2,000 - $6,000+ |
| Removal + new R-49 blown-in insulation | $2,500 - $6,500+ |
Is it cheaper to insulate over old attic insulation in Tomball or remove it first?
Topping up is cheaper up front, but if the old material is wet, pest-damaged, or hiding electrical problems, removal costs less than the future repair bill. Call (855) 657-3403 for an attic condition review.
How long does attic insulation removal take in a Tomball house?
Most standard ranches take one day for removal, with re-insulation often completed the same or next day. Tight attics or contamination may add a day. Call (855) 657-3403 to schedule around your closing or move-in date.
Attic Air Sealing in Tomball
Air sealing addresses the core reason Tomball homes lose conditioned air: the hundreds of small holes at top plates, wire penetrations, can lights, and duct boots that connect the attic to the house. When attic temperatures are 140°F and your air conditioner is fighting humid July air, every unsealed penetration becomes a leak path for hot, damp air to push into the rooms below. Sealing those paths before adding insulation is the sequence that turns an R-49 attic into something that actually performs like one. Our Attic Air Sealing page explains the full process.
Attic Floor Air Sealing
Signs you need it
Dust streaks on insulation, rooms that smell like the attic, or an energy bill in Tomball that spikes every summer without a clear reason.
What it costs in Tomball
Attic floor air sealing in Tomball generally runs $700 to $2,000, depending on how many penetrations and the condition of the existing insulation.
How we do it
We pull back or remove old insulation in work areas, foam or caulk every top plate, chase, and penetration, then restore the insulation to the correct depth.
Can Light & Duct Boot Sealing
Signs you need it
Recessed lights that sweat in summer, dusty supply registers, or rooms that lose cool air into the attic in a Tomball home.
What it costs in Tomball
Sealing can lights, duct boots, and register boxes in a Tomball attic typically runs $300 to $900 for a typical set of fixtures.
How we do it
We use UL-rated covers or foam boxes rated for contact, seal duct boots with mastic, and verify airflow before re-insulating.
What Attic Air Sealing Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Attic floor air sealing | $700 - $2,000 |
| Top plate & penetration sealing | $500 - $1,500 |
| Can light & duct boot sealing | $300 - $900 |
| Attic hatch sealing & insulation | $150 - $450 |
Do I need air sealing before adding insulation in my Tomball attic?
Yes, sealing first is the only way the insulation performs as rated. Blowing insulation over unsealed penetrations hides the leaks instead of fixing them. Call (855) 657-3403 to sequence the work correctly.
Will air sealing alone lower my Tomball energy bill?
Usually yes. Stopping the attic-to-house air exchange reduces the cooling load immediately. Pairing sealing with proper insulation gives the best long-term result. Call (855) 657-3403 for a blower door baseline.
Wall Insulation in Tomball
Many Tomball homes built in the 1970s-90s have wall cavities that were never insulated, or insulated with thin, settled batts behind brick veneer or siding. Air-conditioned interior air leaks out through those walls year-round, and on the west side of a Tomball house, afternoon sun loads make rooms feel hot even when the thermostat is satisfied. For existing construction, we use injection foam or drill-and-fill techniques to reach the cavities without tearing out drywall. See the options on our Wall Insulation page.
Injection Foam Wall Insulation
Signs you need it
Rooms that stay hot on one side of the house, walls that feel cold in winter, or high bills in a Tomball home with no known wall insulation.
What it costs in Tomball
Injection foam wall insulation in Tomball typically runs $2,500 to $8,000, depending on the size of the home and the number of wall cavities.
How we do it
We drill small ports through the exterior or interior, inject a slow-rise foam that fills the cavity without bowing drywall, then patch and repaint the ports.
Dense-Pack Wall Insulation
Signs you need it
Older homes with empty wall cavities, sound transfer between rooms, or drafty perimeter walls in a Tomball ranch or pier-and-beam house.
What it costs in Tomball
Dense-pack cellulose or fiberglass in exterior walls generally runs $2,000 to $6,500 in Tomball, based on wall area and access.
How we do it
We blow cellulose or fiberglass into wall cavities at high density through discreet access points, verify fill with thermal imaging, then seal the access.
What Wall Insulation Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Injection foam wall insulation | $2,500 - $8,000 |
| Dense-pack wall insulation | $2,000 - $6,500 |
| Exterior wall insulation (new construction / remodel) | $1,500 - $4,000 |
| Interior wall soundproofing | $800 - $2,500 |
Can you insulate my existing Tomball brick home without removing the brick?
Yes. We inject foam or dense-pack material through small penetrations from inside or outside, then repair the access points. The brick stays in place. Call (855) 657-3403 for a wall cavity assessment.
Why are my west-facing rooms so hot in my Tomball home?
Afternoon sun loads the wall assembly, and if cavities are empty or poorly insulated, that heat transfers inward faster than your AC can offset. Wall insulation plus an attic review usually corrects it. Call (855) 657-3403 to schedule a diagnosis.
Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing in Tomball
Tomball attics become a problem when rats or squirrels get in, nest in the insulation, and leave droppings and urine that contaminate the material and the air your family breathes. Once pests are gone, the insulation is usually ruined and needs removal; the next step is sanitizing the deck and sealing every entry point so they can’t get back in. Homes near Tomball’s older, tree-heavy subdivisions see this more often because roof lines and soffits provide easy access. The full sequence is on our Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing page.
Attic Cleanout
Signs you need it
Rodent droppings in the attic, nesting material in the insulation, or a stale, pungent smell in upstairs rooms of a Tomball home.
What it costs in Tomball
A full attic cleanout in Tomball typically runs $800 to $2,500, before any insulation replacement, depending on attic size and contamination level.
How we do it
We vacuum out all contaminated material, bag it for disposal, then leave the deck clean enough to inspect for entry points and air leaks.
Rodent Proofing & Exclusion
Signs you need it
Scratching sounds at dawn or dusk, chewed wiring, or repeat pest activity after previous trapping attempts in a Tomball house.
What it costs in Tomball
Exclusion work in Tomball, sealing all accessible entry points, typically runs $500 to $1,800 depending on roof complexity and the number of gaps.
How we do it
We seal gaps with steel mesh, foam backing, and exclusion materials that resist chewing, then verify the attic is secure before re-insulating.
What Attic Cleaning & Rodent Proofing Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Attic cleanout | $800 - $2,500 |
| Attic sanitizing & decontamination | $300 - $1,200 |
| Rodent proofing & exclusion | $500 - $1,800 |
| Full attic restoration (clean, seal, re-insulate) | $3,000 - $8,000+ |
Should I remove insulation after rodents in my Tomball attic?
Yes. Droppings and urine contaminate the material permanently, and the odor returns with every humid spell. Removing the insulation is the only way to fully clear the problem. Call (855) 657-3403 to assess the damage.
How do you keep rodents from coming back in a Tomball attic?
Sealing entry points, trimming tree contact, and repairing damaged soffits are the core measures. If the house has recurring access, exclusion materials and follow-up checks prevent re-entry. Call (855) 657-3403 to schedule a full exclusion review.
Home Energy Audit in Tomball
A home energy audit in Tomball is the fastest way to stop guessing at why your bills are high and your rooms are uneven. We use a blower door to measure how leaky the house is, thermal imaging to find missing or settled insulation, and a duct leakage test to see how much conditioned air is escaping into the attic. In Tomball’s housing mix, the audit often reveals both the obvious problem (thin attic insulation) and the hidden one (air leaks or duct losses that cost more than the insulation gap). Learn what the Home Energy Audit covers.
Blower Door Test
Signs you need it
High summer bills in Tomball, rooms that never hold temperature, or a home that feels drafty even with windows closed.
What it costs in Tomball
A blower door test in Tomball typically runs $150 to $400 as a standalone, or is often bundled with a full audit package.
How we do it
We mount a calibrated fan in an exterior door, depressurize the house, and measure total air leakage in CFM and air changes per hour.
Thermal Imaging Inspection
Signs you need it
Uneven wall or ceiling temperatures, suspicious moisture stains, or verification that insulation was installed correctly in a Tomball home.
What it costs in Tomball
Thermal imaging as part of a Tomball energy audit adds $100 to $350, depending on scope and report detail.
How we do it
We scan walls, ceilings, and the attic with an infrared camera, documenting temperature anomalies that indicate missing insulation, air leaks, or moisture.
What Home Energy Audit Costs in Tomball
| Item | Typical range in Tomball |
|---|---|
| Blower door test | $150 - $400 |
| Thermal imaging inspection | $100 - $350 add-on |
| Insulation inspection | $100 - $300 |
| Full audit package (blower + thermal + duct test) | $400 - $900 |
Do I need a home energy audit before adding insulation in Tomball?
Not required, but strongly recommended. The audit tells you where the air leaks are, so you don’t pay to insulate over them. Call (855) 657-3403 to book a same-week audit appointment.
Will an energy audit tell me why my Tomball AC runs constantly?
Yes. The blower door, thermal imaging, and duct test together pinpoint how much conditioned air is leaving the house and where. That is the data that fixes the problem permanently. Call (855) 657-3403.

FAQs About Insulation in Tomball, TX
How quickly can we schedule an insulation job in Tomball?
We typically schedule inspections and quotes within a few business days, and most installs finish in a single day depending on the size of the attic, crawl space, or walls involved. After you reach out, we confirm a visit window and send a technician to look at the space before writing up the work.
Do inspectors flag old insulation in Tomball home sales?
Original 3.5-inch fiberglass batts, common in Tomball subdivisions built through the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, are a near-automatic flag on Harris County home inspection reports. We can evaluate your attic and provide documentation of any upgrade for a sale or refinance.
How does the written estimate work?
We inspect the attic, walls, or crawl space in person, measure the area, and check the condition of any existing insulation before writing a fixed price. That estimate is given before any work starts, so the scope and total cost are set in advance with nothing added after the fact.
Which areas near Tomball do we serve?
We regularly work in Houston, Spring, The Woodlands, Katy, Pearland, and Humble as well. If you’re not sure whether your address falls inside our coverage area, send us your zip code and we’ll confirm before scheduling a visit.
What happens to the old insulation when it’s replaced?
We remove and bag the old material before hauling it away for proper disposal, then clean the space if needed before installing anything new. If we find moisture damage, contamination, or pest activity in the old insulation, we’ll point it out and address it as part of the job.

What Tomball Customers Say
"They did the energy audit first - blower door and thermal camera - and showed me exactly where the house was leaking before selling me anything. The fix ended up being air sealing plus a modest attic top-up, not the full replacement another company pushed."
- Grace Nakamura"Solid work on the spray foam in the rim joists and the garage ceiling. Scheduling slipped a day because of rain, which they called about ahead of time. Would use them again."
- Tom Reinholt"Crawl space smelled musty and the floors were cold. Full encapsulation with the thick liner taped at every seam, and a dehumidifier sized for the space. The hygrometer they left reads 48 percent now instead of the 70s."
- Elena Vasquez
