Crawl Space Encapsulation In Charlotte, NC

Getting an encapsulated crawl space from ProForce Waterproofing begins with a free inspection. We want to familiarize ourselves with your property and your crawl space to make informed choices for your property. Our team discusses all steps with you in advance and provides an up-front quote before getting started.

First, we need to clean out the crawl space completely. Depending on the state of your space, we may focus on removing debris, pulling out rocks, and otherwise pulling out unnecessary detritus.

Next, it's time to treat any fungal growth present around the subfloor. We use special combinations of high-quality products to ensure the removal of fungal spores from your understory space.

Now that your crawl space area is thoroughly clean, we can begin our crawl space encapsulation services in earnest. We install vapor barriers around the floors and walls with a thickness of up to 150 mm. Our service professionals can seal off openings and penetrations (such as plumbing and electrical feeds) before encapsulating the walls completely. We also install permanent dehumidifiers to regulate humidity levels and stop pest activity from taking hold of your property. You don't have to lift a finger; we'll complete the work on your behalf.

Please note the time it takes to complete your service depends entirely on the space in question. We can provide you with a personalized timeline after the initial inspection is complete. The price of every service is equally related to the size and complexity of your crawl space.

How beneficial is encapsulating a crawl space? Just take a look at the facts:

• Crawl space encapsulation helps prevent rodents and insects from entering your subfloor, working against infestations and possible structural damage.

• Encapsulation creates a barrier to keep moisture out of your home, thus reducing your risk of wood rot and fungal growth. 

• Proper encapsulation helps improve the air quality of your home by reducing spores and other airborne allergens. 

• A well-encapsulated crawl space can help reduce energy costs by improving your home's insulation, keeping it consistent throughout the year. 

• Easily eliminate strong moisture odors that may be present in your home, especially older constructions, without prior waterproofing services.
