What Is Crawl Space Encapsulation?

Encapsulation wraps the floor and walls of the crawl space in a thick, sealed liner, closes off vents and controls humidity. In Arkansas, humid summers push damp air into the space under your house, where it condenses on cool surfaces and feeds mold and wood rot. A properly sealed crawl space takes that moisture out of the equation. This is the core of preventing moisture in crawl spaces arkansas homeowners deal with every year. It also works as mold encapsulation, because a dry, sealed area gives mold no place to grow.

Signs Your Crawl Space Needs Attention

• Musty smell that rises through the floors
• Soft, cupped or sagging floorboards
• Visible mold on joists, insulation or the subfloor
• Standing water or wet soil after rain
• Pests, high humidity and rising cooling bills

If you see standing water, start with crawlspace water extraction so the space can be dried and prepared. If mold is already present, our crawlspace mold remediation comes first.

Our Crawl Space Encapsulation Process

1. Inspection. We check for water entry, mold, rot, insulation condition and drainage problems.
2. Cleaning and prep. Debris and damaged material are cleared. Our crawl space cleaning services and crawlspace cleaning include removing contaminated insulation and sanitizing surfaces, as described on our crawlspace cleaning and sanitation page.
3. Sealing. Vents and gaps are sealed, and a reinforced vapor barrier is installed over the floor and up the walls.
4. Moisture control. A dehumidifier holds humidity at a safe level. For tough cases we use desiccant dehumidification.
5. Final check. We test humidity, walk you through the work and explain how to maintain it.

Crawl Space Waterproofing and Water Control

Sealing the liner is not enough if water keeps coming in. Crawl space waterproofing adds drainage and a sump where needed to move water away from the foundation. Larger drainage or structural water problems can also involve foundation waterproofing.
