Crawl Space Encapsulation
Protect Your Home From The Ground Up
A damp, musty crawl space isn’t just unpleasant—it can lead to mold growth, poor indoor air quality, structural damage, and high energy bills. At Southern Foundation Solutions, we specialize in crawl space encapsulation helping homeowners take control of moisture problems for good.
- Signs You Need Crawl Space Encapsulation
- Musty or moldy odors inside the home
- Sagging floors or wood rot
- Increased allergy or asthma symptoms
- Condensation on ductwork or insulation
- Visible mold or moisture in the crawl space
- High humidity levels indoors
What’s Included In Our Encapsulation System?
At Southern Foundation Solutions, we customize every crawl space project to fit the unique needs of your home. Our services may include:
- Sealing and Vapor Barrier Installation: We install a thick, durable vapor barrier on the floor and walls of the crawl space to block moisture from entering through the soil and foundation walls.
- Sump Pump Installation: If standing water or poor drainage is an issue, we install a sump pump system to automatically remove water from your crawl space. This helps keep the area dry and prevents water from collecting under your home—especially during Florida’s rainy season.
- Dehumidifier Installation: To control high humidity levels and prevent mold, we install a commercial-grade crawl space dehumidifier. This system works in tandem with encapsulation to maintain dry, healthy air beneath your home year-round.
- Drainage Improvements: In some homes, we also install perimeter drains to direct water to the sump pump system before it can pool in your crawl space.
