Crawl Space Encapsulation
in Lebanon, TN
Crawl Space Encapsulation
An open crawl space is a problem you can't see from inside the house but you feel it. You may notice cold floors all winter, a musty smell that never quite goes away or humidity upstairs that your AC can't keep ahead of. The root cause is almost always the same thing. Outside air and ground moisture moving freely under your house and working their way up into the living space. Encapsulation shuts that off. Below is what goes into the job and what each piece does.
Crawl space encapsulation is one of the higher impact jobs we do and most homeowners notice the difference within a few days. Warmer floors, drier air and a house that holds temperature better in all seasons. We handle encapsulation throughout Lebanon, Mt. Juliet, Hermitage and the rest of Wilson County.

What Changes After Your Crawl Space is Sealed
Encapsulation is one of the few home upgrades where the results show up fast. Most of what's wrong with a house sitting over an open crawl space traces back to moisture and air moving where they shouldn't. When we seal that off it fixes several problems at once. Here's what homeowners in Wilson County notice after the work is done.
Every crawl space is different and the scope depends on what we find down there. Some need nothing more than foam on the walls and a vapor barrier. Others have drainage issues or existing damage that has to be handled first. We'll assess the spacea and tell you straight what it needs and give you a firm number before any work starts.

Why Encapsulation Pays for Itself
Encapsulation isn't the first project most homeowners think about mostly because the crawl space is out of sight. However if you make this upgrade the return your investment is much better than a lot of other upgrades. You're cutting energy waste and taking load off your HVAC unit while protecting the structure of the house at the same time. Here's where the money actually comes back.
Crawl space encapsulation touches energy costs, indoor air, equipment life, and the structure of the house all at once. This is why we push it as one of the higher priority jobs on a home that needs it. Whether you're building new or fixing a problem you've lived with for years it's worth getting an assessment.
