Crawl Space Encapsulation & Sealing in & around Sykesville & Baltimore, MD

Homes are built with crawl spaces, in part, because raising the floor helps prevent moisture problems in the home. The crawl space itself, however, can become a pooling ground for standing water and condensation. Venting was once thought to alleviate the issue, but we now know that vented crawl spaces can actually trap moisture and become even more humid than it is outdoors.

In many situations, crawl space sealing and encapsulation is the best solution because it can:

• Prevent water damage in the crawl space
• Protect your home from water damage
• Maintain a steady, low humidity level
• Deter pests and vermin from nesting
• Improve indoor air quality and remove musty, mildewy smells
• Add insulation and improve a home’s energy efficiency

Adding crawl space encapsulation the right way takes plenty of preparation and painstaking effort. After all, encapsulating a crawl space that currently has a moisture problem or other issues can lead to unintended negative effects.
