Crawl Space Encapsulation: Protect Your Home from Moisture and Mold
At Crawl Space Pro, we understand that your home is one of your biggest investments—and your crawl space plays a crucial role in protecting it. Our crawl space encapsulation service is designed to create a clean, dry, and healthy environment beneath your home, safeguarding it from moisture, mold, and pests.
​
What Is Crawl Space Encapsulation?
Crawl space encapsulation is the process of sealing off your crawl space from the outside environment. We install a durable vapor barrier that covers the floor and walls of your crawl space, creating a protective shield that keeps moisture and outside air at bay. This system also includes sealing vents and installing a dehumidifier to maintain optimal humidity levels.
​
Why Is Encapsulation Important?
A damp, dirty crawl space can lead to:
​
-
Mold growth and poor air quality
-
Wood rot and structural damage
-
Increased energy bills due to poor insulation
-
Pest infestations
​​
Encapsulation addresses these issues by creating a barrier that blocks moisture and outside contaminants, protecting your home from damage and improving the air you breathe.
