Our Services
Crawl space encapsulation consists of sealing a crawl space from moisture with a high quality vapor barrier on all exposed floor and walls, insulating ring joist, sealing off foundation vents and providing conditioned ventilation. Sealing the crawlspace creates cleaner air and reduces risk of mold. Encapsulating a crawl space also adds value to a home by potentially lowering energy costs and improving the structure of your home.

basement waterproofing
Waterproofing your basement ensures that you will have a clean and dry basement to enjoy. A flooded or damp basement could result in mold, bugs, and even an unstable foundation. Prevention is better than repair in this scenario. There are several different methods of waterproofing a basement depending on the severity and source of water. Some of the methods our company uses are installing a new drainage system, sump pumps, and pit installation. Crawlspace Renovations will determine what is best for each individual basement.
Mold Remediation
Mold Remediation is the process of eradicating mold within the home. It is an important aspect of having a safe environment and has become increasingly more important in selling your home. It's also helpful if someone suffers from asthma or allergies. Homes in wetter areas tend to have more mold in their house. Remediation involves fixing the current mold issue and preventing more mold from growing. This is done by addressing where the moisture is coming from. After the mold is cleared, the area must be dried and dust-free.
interior & exterior drainage systems
Depending on the source of water and your home, an interior or exterior drainage system may be better. An interior system gathers excess water and sends it to a sump pump, permanently resolving the leak. This is for when water is gathering around the basement floor where it meets the wall. Crawlspace Renovations will determine if an interior or exterior drainage system will be the best solution for your home. An exterior system will redirect water away from the home and protect the foundation from other elements of water. Some of the methods our company uses are installing a new foundation drainage system, sump pumps, and pit installation. Crawlspace Renovations will determine what is best for each individual basement.
Vapor Barrier installation
Installation of a vapor barrier in crawlspaces is a critical step in maintaining the structural integrity and health of a building. Typically consisting of a heavy-duty plastic sheet, the vapor barrier is installed over the ground to prevent moisture from seeping into the crawlspace from the soil below. Proper installation involves cleaning and leveling the area before laying down the barrier, ensuring that it covers the entire floor to create a sealed environment. This barrier acts as a deterrent to moisture, reducing the risk of mold growth, wood rot, and other moisture-related issues.
crawlspace insulation
Installing insulation in crawlspaces is crucial for enhancing energy efficiency and maintaining a comfortable indoor environment. The process typically involves fitting insulation between the floor joists or covering the crawl space walls, depending on the specific design and layout. Insulation materials such as fiberglass batts or foam boards are commonly used to create a thermal barrier, preventing heat loss in colder months and heat gain in warmer ones. Proper installation requires sealing any gaps or cracks to prevent air leakage and moisture intrusion, which can compromise the effectiveness of the insulation and lead to issues like mold growth or pest infestation. By insulating crawlspaces, homeowners can improve energy efficiency, reduce utility costs, and create a more comfortable living space above.
dehumidifier installation
In a crawl space, a dehumidifier can prevent the growth of mold and improve air quality. Placing a dehumidifier in your crawl space can also prevent structural damage caused by excessive moisture; this could include insect damage, rust, or wood rotting. In these cases, preventative action is better than repair. We install them perfectly leveled over concrete blocks and make them drain by gravity out of the crawlspace or the sump pump.
structural
repair
Structural repair for your home is crucial for maintaining its stability, safety, and value. Your home's crawlspace plays a significant role in supporting the entire structure, and any damage or deterioration in this area can lead to serious problems throughout the house. Issues such as sagging floors, cracked foundations, moisture damage, and pest infestations can compromise the structural integrity of your home and pose risks to your family's well-being. Using advanced techniques and high-quality materials, we can reinforce existing supports, repair damaged beams, joists, and seams and implement effective moisture control measures to prevent future problems.
