Crawl spaces are often susceptible to high levels of moisture, which can lead to mold and other problems. There are a few ways to combat these issues, one of which is Encapsulation. Encapsulation is a process of sealing the crawl space in a 6mm plastic sheeting, which can reduce moisture levels and help to control mold. This can also allow for cleaner air in your crawl space, as well as additional storage. In order to encapsulate your crawl space, you will need to install a sump pump and/or dehumidifier. Once your crawl space is dry, we can begin the process of sealing it off from the rest of your home.
A crawl space is an area of your home that is typically not insulated or temperature-controlled. Many homes have a dirt floor in the crawl space, which can lead to moisture and humidity problems. Crawl space encapsulation is a process of sealing the crawl space so that it is isolated from the outside environment. This service can provide many benefits, including better air quality, lower energy bills, and decreased potential for mold growth. Crawl space encapsulation can also help to prevent structural damage to your home by reducing the moisture levels in the crawl space that can lead to wood rot. When choosing a company to perform crawl space encapsulation, it is important to choose one with experience and a good reputation. Crawl space encapsulation is an important investment in your home, and it is important to choose a company that will do the job right.
The method of encapsulation includes sealing your entire crawl space in plastic sheeting. The purpose is to reduce the moisture in your crawl space, reducing your risk of mold. It also allows for cleaner air in your crawl space (which you share). Crawl space moisture leads to many problems such as wood rot, termites, rusty nails and promoting the growth of mold/mildew. Installing a sump pump and/or dehumidifier will also help to reduce the moisture in your crawl space. Additionally, after your crawl space is encapsulated, you will have more storage as it will be completely clean.

Encapsulation requires air conditioning. Air conditioning can be accomplished via: a dehumidifier, a small amount of air supply from HVAC system, or an exhaust fan.
Down Spout or French Drain Installations are also ways of keeping water away from your home.
Vapor barriers and encapsulation are great ways to combat the growth of fungus and mold.

A crawl space moisture barrier, also known as a vapor barrier, is a plastic sheet that is used to control moisture levels in crawl spaces. The process of installing a crawl space moisture barrier involves laying down a 6mm plastic sheet across the entire crawl space floor. This helps to prevent moisture from entering the crawl space and causing damage to the home. In addition, it can also help to reduce mold growth and improve indoor air quality. While a crawl space moisture barrier does not require a sump pump, sometimes your home may need one depending on its location and soil conditions. Ultimately, installing a crawl space moisture barrier can provide many benefits for your home, including improved indoor air quality and reduced mold growth. Because the vapor barrier method does not seal the vents in your crawl space, you do not get the added benefit of sealed storage, however, you do get all the other benefits of encapsulation.
