Crawl space encapsulation is the process of sealing and insulating your home’s crawl space to prevent moisture, pests and other environmental factors from compromising your property’s structural stability and indoor air quality. This involves the installation of a high-quality vapor barrier, insulation and a drainage system to create a controlled, dry environment.
What We Offer
At Queen Foundation Repair, our step-by-step crawl space encapsulation service ensures that your home’s foundation remains dry and clean so you can enjoy a healthier living space:
Our experienced technicians thoroughly inspect your crawl space, identify any existing issues and develop a customized plan to address them. This allows us to tailor our solutions to your home’s unique needs.
Excess moisture can quickly build up in poorly ventilated crawl spaces, especially in humid regions like the southern U.S. To combat water damage, we’ll install moisture control measures that eliminate standing water and musty odors and reduce the risk of water damage, mold and mildew.
A high-quality vapor barrier is key to a successful crawl space encapsulation. We carefully install a durable, airtight barrier to ensure a full seal and keep moisture out.
Our team will design and install a drainage system to quickly and efficiently remove standing water from your crawl space, ensuring it remains dry and protected.
To protect against water damage, we can install a sump pump in areas prone to water intrusion. This device efficiently pumps out excess water, keeping your crawl space dry and protecting your home’s foundation.
Proper insulation can improve your home’s energy efficiency by preventing heat loss or gain. We’ll add insulation to your crawl space walls and other surfaces to enhance your HVAC system’s performance.
By carefully sealing cracks, gaps and openings within your crawl space, we prevent unwanted air leakage. This targeted approach improves your home’s indoor air quality by eliminating drafts and also boosts energy efficiency, leading to lower heating and cooling costs.
Pests can wreak havoc in an unprotected crawl space. Our team will implement various pest control strategies, such as sealing entry points to keep your crawl space free from pest infestations.
By thoroughly sealing the crawl space for any cracks, gaps or openings, we can create an airtight barrier that keeps out pests, reduces air leaks and improves energy efficiency, lowering heating and cooling costs.
Our pest control measures, including sealing entry points and using exclusion techniques, like installing screens to prevent infestations that can compromise the structural integrity of your home and lead to costly wood rot and other damage.
Water can infiltrate your crawl space due to groundwater evaporation, leaky plumbing, water intrusion and condensation. We tackle humidity by installing dehumidifiers in your crawl space, ensuring moisture levels stay within an optimal range, preventing mold growth and protecting your home’s structural integrity.
Our crawl space encapsulation service includes the removal of any accumulated debris and disinfection, preparing the space to install the vapor barrier and other essential components.
If we discover any mold growth during the inspection, we’ll treat it to prevent mold growth occurrences in the future, ensuring a healthy, safe environment.
In some cases, we may need to address any structural issues in your crawl space, such as sagging floors or weakened support beams, to ensure the long-term stability of your home's foundation.
