CRAWL SPACE ENCAPSULATION SERVICES FOR THE HIGH COUNTRY

Most people don’t give a second thought to their crawl space, but at the end of the day, it is integral to the safety of your home. Dirt crawl spaces can pose unique challenges for homeowners without a proper prevention or intervention solution.


Possible issues of a dirt crawl space include:


  • Water seepage and damage
  • The infestation of rodents and insects
  • Heat loss
  • The growth of harmful mildew and mold due to increased high humidity
  • The accumulation of dangerous radon
  • and more!


Still, they can be avoided by taking the proper action. Our crawl space solutions, combined with dehumidification, helps to eliminate the following:


  • Musty odors, mold and mildew growth
  • Insect and rodent infestation
  • Radon accumulation


We accomplish this by separating your crawl space from the earth and the natural damages caused by such exposure.

WHAT IS CRAWL SPACE ENCAPSULATION?

Crawl space encapsulation is sealing your home’s crawl space from the outside environment. It typically involves installing a vapor barrier on the crawl space floor and walls. Then we seal vents and other openings, and sometimes add insulation. This process helps to prevent mold growth by keeping moisture out.

RADON MITIGATION NC

Radon mitigation by crawl space encapsulation is another method for reducing radon levels in a building or home. This method completely seals the crawl space with a durable, air-tight barrier. The outcome is to prevent radon gas from entering the home.


The encapsulation process involves the following steps:


  • First, any standing water or excess dampness in the crawl space is addressed. High moisture levels can lead to mold growth and other issues.
  • A durable, air-tight barrier is installed over the entire crawl space. This seals it from the outside environment.
  • Any gaps or openings in the foundation walls or floors are sealed. The result is to further prevent radon gas from entering.
  • A venting system is installed to ensure adequate airflow under the home. This helps to prevent dampness and water damage.


Once the crawl space is encapsulated, a radon mitigation system can be installed to draw air from beneath it and vent it outside. This system is similar to the sub-slab depressurization method described earlier. However, it is designed specifically for crawl spaces.


Overall, crawl space encapsulation can be an effective method of mitigating radon. This is particularly true in homes prone to moisture buildup or other issues. With any radon mitigation method, it is important to have the work done by a trained and experienced professional. Making sure it is done correctly and safely is essential.

WHY IS CRAWL SPACE ENCAPSULATION IMPORTANT?

MOISTURE CONTROL

Crawl space encapsulation helps to control moisture levels in your home. Moisture can enter your home through the soil or from the outside environment. It can lead to mold growth, structural damage, and poor air quality. Encapsulation helps to keep dampness out, which can help prevent these issues.

IMPROVED INDOOR AIR QUALITY

Poor indoor air quality can be a significant problem for many homes. Mold and other contaminants can enter your home through the crawl space. This can lead to respiratory issues, allergies, and other health problems. Encapsulating your crawl space can help improve your home’s indoor air quality. Our commitment to customer satisfaction ensures that your home's air quality is our top priority.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Encapsulation can also help improve your home's energy efficiency. By sealing off your crawl space, you can help prevent air leaks. Air leaks can lead to energy waste and higher energy costs and utility bills. Additionally, adding insulation to your crawl space's walls can help further improve energy efficiency.

STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY

Finally, it can help protect your home's structural integrity. Controlling moisture levels and preventing mold growth can help prevent damage to your home's foundation and other structural components.

HOW IS CRAWL SPACE ENCAPSULATION DONE?

Crawl space encapsulation is typically done by a professional contractor who specializes in this type of work. The process involves the following steps:


  • Inspection: The contractor will inspect your crawl space to assess its current condition. Any repairs needed are determined before encapsulation.
  • Cleaning and Preparation: The area will be thoroughly cleaned and prepared for encapsulation. This may include removing debris, sealing off vents and other openings, and repairing any damage to the walls or floor.
  • Installation of Vapor Barrier: A vapor barrier will be installed on the floor and walls of the crawlspace. This barrier helps to prevent water from entering the space.
  • Insulation: If needed, insulation will be installed on the walls of the crawlspace to improve energy efficiency. Our high quality encapsulations typically eliminate the need for insulation to achieve energy efficiency.
  • Final Inspection: Once the encapsulation is complete, the contractor will perform a final inspection to ensure that everything was done correctly.


Crawl space encapsulation is an essential step in protecting your home’s indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and structural integrity. By controlling moisture levels, you can help keep your home healthy and safe.
