CRAWL SPACE SERVICE OPTIONS

Crawlspace Care Pro provides a range of services to homeowners. After a Free Crawl Space Inspection, we will discuss the following options with the property owner:

Crawl Space Cleanup

General cleanup of a crawl space includes but is not limited to, junk removal, ruined insulation removal, and general trash. A crawl space cleanup allows a better survey of moisture-affected areas and prepares the space for the following steps.

Dehumidifiers

When necessary, we can install crawl space dehumidifiers. A dehumidifier keeps crawl space humidity at a manageable level. Dehumidifiers work best in an encapsulated crawl space.

Drainage Systems

Simple trenches and in-ground pipes allow water a way out of a structure. Interior drainage systems may flow to a sump pump system as well.

Encapsulation

Encapsulation creates a closed crawl space that significantly limits moisture intrusion into a home. Encapsulation provides the most benefits to a house and is the best method for controlling crawl space moisture.

Humidity Monitoring

We can install a simple hygrometer or a more complex system for crawl space humidity monitoring. These systems allow homeowners to see moisture changes within their crawl space. Crawlspace Care Pro will return to address any moisture-related issue a homeowner may encounter. 

Insulation

Crawlspace Care Pro will remove and replace rotten insulation of similar R-Type while providing crawl space project work. While under your home, we can even upgrade the insulation’s R-type. Our encapsulation service removes the subfloor insulation as this system requires insulated foundation walls.

Mold Treatment

There is no point in cleaning up a crawl space without treating the joists, the foundation walls, the foundation piers, and the soil for mold and mildew. Cleanup of mold and mildew is essential for creating a healthy crawl space.

Sump Pump Systems

A sump pump discharges excess water that pools in the lowest spot in your crawl space. The pump sits in the water and automatically turns off once the water is clear. Drainage systems often terminate at a sump pump basin.

Vapor Barrier

Even in the driest atmospheric conditions, soil still retains a lot of water. A simple vapor barrier is a good option if this water wicks into your home from subsurface soil.
