Crawlspace Extreme Makeover Encapsulation

The most common crawl space vapor barrier installed in homes today is a 6 mil, recycled plastic sheeting which is loosely spread on the ground and gets torn, shifted, and deteriorates over time.

However, as a professional crawl space contractor, we offer a top-of-the-line crawl space encapsulation choice: a 15, 16, or 20-mil fully reinforced, prime, virgin, polyethylene liner with sealed seams for the crawlspace floor, piers, and walls. One or more properly sized dehumidifiers are installed. All sources of air infiltration are blocked off or sealed. Any necessary water management systems are installed which may include a sump pump and french drain. A sub-liner exhaust system is installed to evacuate humidity, earth gases, and odors before they enter the crawlspace. We even offer options such as replacement doors, liner underlayment, motion-activated lighting, remote monitoring with sensors or cameras, and coating of the sub-floor with a white-pigmented anti-microbial solution.

Features

• The wall liner completely seals the crawlspace floor and walls and is mechanically sealed to the walls and piers to a level above grade but below the wood subfloor.
• The seams are overlapped and sealed with a special waterproof adhesive tape 
• The membrane is fully reinforced for maximum tear resistance
• A sump-pump with the longest warranty in the industry and french drains that are 3 times more effective than traditional systems
• A sub-liner evacuation system that constantly exhausts humidity, earth gases, and odors
• Best-in-class warranties on the equipment, materials, and labor
