Solutions for Crawl Space Challenges
We are proud to provide homeowners with various solutions to common problems caused by Nashville's hot and humid summers, such as high humidity, standing water, wood rot, pests, sagging floors, and mold. Crawl space encapsulation is the best solution to these issues and the only proven method to restore your crawl space to a healthy state. A dehumidifier is crucial for controlling moisture and relative humidity, preventing mold growth, wood rot, and pests, which thrive in crawl spaces with humidity levels over 70%, typical for 6-8 months of the year in Nashville. For added peace of mind, we offer flexible financing options to help make crawl space encapsulation and dehumidifier installation more affordable—learn more about our financing here.
Crawl space doors are usually made from thin sheet metal that rusts quickly. Custom wooden doors, while more durable, also degrade over time, allowing external air and pests to enter. If your crawl space door is deteriorating, we offer long-lasting solutions to enhance your home's crawl space access and protection.
Benefits Of Our Crawl Space Services:
Improved Indoor Air Quality
More than 50% of your indoor air comes from your crawl space. Encapsulating your crawl space and installing a dehumidifier and/or durable door prevents moisture and mold growth, which can improve the air quality of your home and reduce the risk of respiratory issues.
Increased Energy Efficiency
Our crawl space services prevent air leakage and improves insulation, sealing off the crawl space from the climate and preventing excess humidity that can make your HVAC system work harder, increasing energy bills.
Protects Structural Integrity
Encapsulating your crawl space and installing a dehumidifier are both measures you can take to protect your home against wood rot and other types of structural damage caused by moisture, preserving your home’s value and preventing costly repairs.
Mold Prevention
Proper installation of a commercial-grade crawl space dehumidifier helps reduce humidity and wood moisture levels, preventing the conditions that foster mold growth and improving the indoor air quality of your home.
Pest Control
A well-sealed, properly fitted door or an encapsulated crawl space can drastically reduce pest invasions.

The FAQs of Crawl Space Services
What Exactly Is Crawl Space Encapsulation?
Encapsulation is the process of sealing your crawl space against outside elements by installing thick, puncture, and tear-resistant vapor barriers over the ground and wrapping support columns and walls. Foundation vents are then sealed to stop outside air from entering. Once sealed, a commercial-grade dehumidifier is installed to maintain humidity at a constant.
How Long Does Crawl Space Encapsulation Take?
Encapsulation typically takes 1-3 days but depends on the crawl space size and the required level of work.
