CRAWL SPACE ENCAPSULATION
AVOID INDOOR MOISTURE ISSUES
THE PROBLEM
If you enter your home’s crawlspace, the problem is immediately evident. The smell of must and mold hangs in the air. They are damp, dark and the perfect place to produce mold that thrives in these conditions. Animals can access them and make beds/nests in the insulation, and since the crawl space is part of the house’s structure, this can lead to contaminated air being dispersed into the living area.
Experience has shown us that traditional vented crawl spaces are inadequate. They have higher humidity due to the changes in outside temperature. The warm, humid air during the summer months enters the crawl space and then cools causing the relative humidity in the crawl space to go even higher. With Basement Panther’s specialized crawl space encapsulation system, the relative humidity will stay below 55% even when the outside humidity is significantly higher.
Welcome to Basement Panther Waterproofing, your trusted source for professional basement and crawl space encapsulation services. Our team of experts is dedicated to helping homeowners like you protect their properties from the dangers of moisture, mold, and other issues that can arise in damp, dark crawl spaces.
WHAT IS CRAWL SPACE ENCAPSULATION?
Crawl space encapsulation is a process that involves sealing your crawl space to create a barrier between your home and the outside environment. This barrier helps to prevent moisture from seeping into your home, which can lead to mold, mildew, and other problems that can impact your health and wellbeing. Encapsulation typically involves the use of a high-quality vapor barrier, as well as insulation and a dehumidifier to keep the air in your crawl space dry.
BENEFITS OF CRAWL SPACE ENCAPSULATION
There are many benefits to encapsulating your crawl space, including:
- Improved air quality: When your crawl space is encapsulated, the air inside your home is cleaner and healthier, free from the mold, mildew, and other pollutants that can thrive in damp, dark spaces.
- Increased energy efficiency: By sealing your crawl space, you can reduce the amount of air that leaks out of your home, which can help to lower your energy bills and make your home more comfortable.
- Reduced risk of pest infestations: Encapsulation can help to keep rodents, insects, and other pests out of your crawl space, reducing the risk of infestations that can be costly and difficult to address.

Water intrusion is not only inconvenient, it is erosive. Water penetrating your foundation is creating more damage each time it occurs, and will eventually lead to the failure of your home’s foundation.

Removing this issue will increase interest in your home, when you add in the transferable warranty that we offer, this will increase the re-sale value of your home up to 25%.
