Crawl Space Encapsulation, Insulation & Moisture Protection

For this project, we began by preparing the crawl space with a detailed cleanup. The heating ducts and sewer lines were wiped down, spider webs cleared, and old drywall and fiberglass removed from the exterior walls. Stored items were also moved out to make space for the installation.

We then installed drainage matting beneath the liner and extended it up the walls. This helps protect against ground seepage, makes the floor more durable, and provides a smoother surface for storage. To improve energy efficiency, new rim joist insulation was installed, followed by foil-faced wall insulation. All seams and gaps were carefully sealed with spray foam and foil tape to ensure a tight and moisture-resistant finish.

Next, the space was inspected for any possible rodent entry points, and wire mesh was installed where needed for added protection. Finally, we encapsulated the entire crawl space with a heavy-duty liner, fastening and sealing it to the footings, piers, and walls to create a clean, dry, and energy-efficient environment.

The end result is a healthier crawl space that is fully protected against moisture, pests, and energy loss.
