Up to 50% of the air in your house can stream in from your crawl space. Moisture in the crawl space can cause air quality issues and odors. Adding a crawl space vapor barrier can increase indoor air quality and keep your home warmer in the winter.

Water Extraction Experts encapsulate a crawl space by sealing it with a water vapor barrier (usually a heavy-duty polyethylene barrier) to effectively contain any moisture seeping in from the floor and foundation walls.

Why should you encapsulate your crawl space?

We hear from a lot of our customers who choose to put a water vapor barrier in their crawl space to reduce musty odors in their home. However, there are health risks often associated with a damp crawl space, such as mold, air quality, and fungi. Structural damage, such as wood rot, can also be a problem and negatively impact the value of your property. By encapsulating your crawl space, you also regain this space for storage.

Benefits of Encapsulating your Crawl Space

Healthier air quality in your home
Avoid mold or fungi issues and structural damage
Better energy efficiency in your home
Create an uninviting area for pests

Our Process for Encapsulating

your Crawl Space

Call us for a FREE inspection. We’ll assess your crawl space and make sure it’s ready for encapsulation.
Prior to encapsulation will address any excess moisture issues, take measurements and make sure the area is ready for placement of the water vapor barrier.
Our certified technicians will begin placing the water vapor barrier. We’ll cut the water vapor barrier to the specific measurements of your crawl space to ensure adequate overlap and no gaps are present.
If your crawl space needs further humidity control, we may recommend the placement of a dehumidifier.

Very well coordinated team with excellent communication from Matt throughout the project. They did dry wall patching for us throughout an entire house after a repiping project. They did an excellent patch and texture job so that the patched areas are barely visible

Great Company

From the minute I called for the free inspection/estimate to the day they completed the job, this company was professional, friendly, patient, and answered questions I didn't even know to ask. Thank you to you all for a great experience in a not-so-great situation.

Water Extraction Experts did a fantastic job removing mold from a bathroom vanity in a home we recently purchased. The vanity had a large granite countertop that they had to remove to address the issue. They put everything back together perfectly. Matt was extremely courteous and gave daily progress updates. I highly recommend this company if you want excellent work!

Matt and his team are incredible. My wife and I had tried talking to a few mold remediation companies in town but each said they’d get back to us or were scheduled out months away. I gave Water Extraction Experts a call and was put on the schedule much quicker than the other companies. The estimator came out and took thorough readings and pictures. Matt then provided us with an incredibly detailed summary of the work and a breakdown of each cost. The team then came out and made quick work of the demo being sure to keep everything clean as they went along. My wife and I received an amazing care package including dinner and a movie date to help with the stressful time. The air scrubbers were not too loud for our home but Matt was sure to include earplugs for us just in case. Our dogs didn’t mind the noise of the scrubbers either. After inspection passed and reconstruction began, Matt was diligent in communicating schedules and working around our plumber. It was a stress free experience thanks to Matt and Water Extraction Experts. Thank you guys for everything!

Life savers! We were purchasing a home with damage to bedroom walls & floors caused by leaking pool equipment. Matt's team assessed the damage & provided a project start date that was timely.

Expect excellence in communication. Matt would call me each day to say when to expect his team. His crew arrived on time, happily answered all my questions & was thorough without rushing . Matt responds quickly by phone and email. I appreciated that.

Shortly after our bedroom was repaired we discovered another problem in a separate room. Matt's crew was available within a few days, helped to trouble shoot the cause of the damage & had everything wrapped up fast so we could continue with other contractors.

I can't say it enough, work with Water Extraction. It was truly a pleasure to do so.
