Crawl Space Encapsulation & Repair

Protect your home with a Full Crawl Space Encapsulation!

Millions of homes across North America are built with crawl space foundations and have been for decades. For the same amount of time, they’ve been vulnerable to moisture and pest activity, among other issues.

Since up to 50% of the air in your crawl space will eventually work its way into the home, it’s important that the space is conditioned and kept mold-free to ensure the health and safety of its residents. The issue is that water, given enough time, will always find a way inside. Some crawl spaces are dirt-floored, and some are composed of concrete. Neither material will protect against water intrusion.

Prevent damage to your home by Encapsulating!

If left unattended for long enough, a damp crawl space can wreak havoc on your home and family. Common warning signs include mold or a musty odor, softening floors above the space, insect infestations, allergy and asthma symptoms that have suddenly appeared or gotten worse, and high energy costs.

Many homeowners encapsulate in an effort to protect against water intrusion, as adding a vapor barrier and dehumidifier is widely accepted by those in the field to be the best solution currently on the market. The material used in most vapor barriers is comparable to a heavy-duty pool liner, meant to stop leaks in pools. Another benefit is the improvement of air quality, both in the crawl space and in the home above! An undeniable benefit is that a fully encapsulated crawl space is an inhospitable environment for pests, mold, and mildew, which can help prevent structural issues.
