Crawlspace Repair and Encapsulation
A problem crawlspace is a result of excessive moisture from the ground causing mould, mildew, musty smells and excessive rot to the sub-floor structure (floor joists and built-up wood beams). Failure to solve this problem may result in extensive structural failure and major health issues, causing a house’s value to depreciate.


Our Solution

We look to encapsulate problem crawlspaces by creating drainage to alleviate ground water, installing a 7.2 mm poly to stop moisture and spraying closed cell foam insulation from the underside of the sub-floor plywood to the ground level. This insulation is moisture, mould and mildew resistant and formaldehyde free, and it covers the 7.2 mm poly, producing a thermal break which finishes the encapsulation.
