Our Crawl Space Encapsulation Process - Vapor Barrier

The installation process is simple.

• First, we clean out the crawl space of any obstructions and items that may be there already.
• Next, we will install the vapor barrier to the walls of the foundation around the perimeter of the crawl space.
• Then, we install the vapor barrier on the floor of the crawl space and seal any gaps where it meets the walls.
• Finally, we install an insulated door at the entrance to the crawl space.

Once the crawl space is sealed from the outside environment, the air will be conditioned to reduce the moisture content and prevent the growth of mold and other contaminants that can harm your home and your family. This is done through the use of a dehumidifier and the changes will be noticeable immediately.
