Crawl Space Encapsulation

Encapsulation is a moisture-control approach that separates the crawl space from ground moisture and outside air more effectively than a simple exposed-earth crawl space.

What encapsulation addresses

A typical system focuses on ground moisture, humid air and uncontrolled vapor movement. Components can include a heavy-duty vapor barrier, sealed penetrations and mechanical humidity control.

What encapsulation does not replace

Encapsulation is not a substitute for correcting active structural damage. Sagging beams, inadequate supports or foundation movement need their own repair plan.

When both may be needed

A crawl space can have moisture and structural problems at the same time. In that case, stabilizing the structure and managing moisture can be complementary parts of the work.
