Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Suffolk, VA Crawl Space Encapsulation

This homeowner contacted us with concerns about humidity and water in their crawl space. High relative humidity can cause a multitude of problems in the crawl space such as wet, falling insulation, mold and mildew growth and wood rot. These things can affect the overall health of your home and your indoor air quality as the air in your crawl space is pulled up through the home, into the livable space. The homeowner also had an issue with groundwater in the crawl space contributing to the moisture and humidity issues. To address these concerns, we cleaned the old insulation out, remediated the mold, installed a new GoldSeal Vapor Barrier, blocked the vents, installed a drainage system and SmartSump pump, installed spray foam insulation.
