How Much Does Crawl Space Encapsulation Cost?
While the total cost will depend on the size of your crawl space and the extent of any damage caused by moisture-related problems, crawl space encapsulation costs usually range from $1,500 to $15,000. ‘58 Foundations & Waterproofing offers both a free inspection and a detailed cost estimate.
Is Crawl Space Encapsulation Necessary?
It is important to get your crawl space encapsulated because not only does it protect your crawl space from outside moisture, but it can also help keep pests out and even provides a passive defense against radon gas.
What is Crawl Space Encapsulation?
Crawl space encapsulation describes the sealing of your crawl space and protecting it against the outside environment. The goal is to prevent outside moisture from flowing into the crawl space and causing moisture-related problems.
Does Crawl Space Encapsulation Stop Rodents?
Rodent pests love looking for dark, damp, and messy places to build their nests and raise their young. That would make a damp and musty dirt crawl space perfect for them. But with crawl space encapsulation, your crawl space can be made clean and dry. This not only deprives potential rodent pests of the moisture they want, but it also can help discourage rodents by depriving them of nesting materials that a dirt crawl space may offer.
Does Crawl Space Encapsulation Prevent Termites?
Termites need a certain level of humidity to survive. With crawl space encapsulation, your crawl space and any wooden support structures within will be kept dry, closing the door on any termites looking for a new home.
Will Crawl Space Encapsulation Get Rid of the Musty Odor?
If your crawl space has a musty odor, you may have a moisture problem in your crawl space and mold has started growing in there. Crawl space encapsulation can keep your crawl space safe and dry, which prevents mold growth since mold requires a certain level of moisture to live.
Are There Any Negatives to Crawl Space Encapsulation?
Between having a healthy, safe, and usable crawl space or having a dirty, damp, and musty crawl space, it’s easy to see that crawl space encapsulation will only improve your quality of life in your home.
Other Crawl Space Encapsulation Benefits?
Breathe easier with a healthier home. The air in your crawl space inevitably flows up into your living space. But with crawl space encapsulation, the air in your crawl space will be kept cleaner and healthier without all that outside air, moisture, and allergens.
Does Crawl Space Encapsulation Increase Home Value?
Yes! An encapsulated crawl space provides more than just protection for your home against invasive moisture—it turns your crawl space into a usable space! Whether you want to use it for storage, a cellar, or even an indoor garden space, the ability to use the crawl space safely for these purposes will add value to your home.
