Crawlspace Encapsulation
Protect Your Home from Moisture, Mold & Pests
At Vortex Waterproofing & Pest Solutions, we provide professional crawlspace encapsulation services using a durable 100 mil poly vapor barrier to seal out moisture and protect your home for the long term.
Why Crawlspace Encapsulation Matters
A damp, unsealed crawlspace can cause serious problems for your home and your health. Common issues include:
Mold and Mildew Growth
Excess moisture creates the perfect breeding ground for mold and mildew, which can spread through your home and trigger allergies or respiratory issues.
Wood Rot and Structural Damage
Moisture can weaken wooden beams and floor joists, compromising your home’s foundation.
Increased Energy Costs
A damp crawlspace can make your HVAC system work harder, driving up your energy bills.
Pest and Rodent Infestations
Insects, wood-destroying organisms, rodents, and even larger pests are drawn to damp, dark crawlspaces.
Musty Odors and Poor Air Quality
Up to 50% of the air in your home comes from your crawlspace. If it’s damp and musty, your indoor air will be, too.
How Our Crawlspace Encapsulation Works
At Vortex Waterproofing & Pest Solutions, we take a comprehensive approach to sealing and protecting your crawlspace:
Thorough Inspection
We assess your crawlspace for moisture, mold, and structural concerns.
Drainage Solutions
If needed, we install French or channel drains to direct water away from your home.
Sealing and Encapsulation
We install a 100 mil polyvapor barrier, sealing the crawlspace floor and walls to lock out moisture.
Dehumidification (If Necessary)
In high-humidity areas, we may recommend a dehumidifier to maintain optimal conditions.
Final Inspection & Quality Check
We ensure your crawlspace is fully sealed and protected for long-term performance.
