Why Crawl Space Maintenance Matters

Did you know that up to 50% of the air in your home originates from your crawl space? If the area is damp, moldy, or infested with pests, it can negatively impact your indoor air quality, cause unpleasant odors, and even contribute to respiratory issues. A well-maintained crawl space can help:

  • Prevent mold growth and moisture damage
  • Reduce pest infestations
  • Lower energy bills by improving insulation
  • Eliminate musty odors in your home
  • Protect structural integrity by preventing wood rot

Our Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation Process

At ABT Foundation Solutions, Inc., we follow a 5-step process to seal and protect your crawl space, ensuring long-term results.

1. Remove Pest Infestations

Crawl spaces provide the ideal habitat for rodents, insects, and other pests. If you’ve noticed bugs, spiders, or cockroaches in your home, they could be originating from your crawl space. We’ll inspect the area for signs of infestation and refer you to trusted pest control professionals if necessary.

2. Eliminate Excess Moisture

Water in your crawl space can lead to foundation instability, wood rot, and mold growth. We install sump pumps and water control systems to divert water away and keep your crawl space dry.

3. Control Humidity With a Crawl Space Dehumidifier

Even if standing water isn’t present, high humidity levels can still cause damage. We install energy-efficient dehumidifiers specifically designed for crawl spaces, keeping humidity levels at 50% or lower to prevent mold and mildew.

4. Encapsulate & Seal the Crawl Space

Sealing off your crawl space is the best way to prevent future moisture problems. We use the Dry Right™ Crawl Space Solution, a high-quality vapor barrier system that lines the entire crawl space—walls, floors, and supports—creating a fully sealed and protected environment.

  • Blocks moisture from the ground
  • Prevents mold, mildew, and wood rot
  • Seals out dirt, debris, and pests
  • Brightens and strengthens the area for storage use

5. Insulate for Energy Efficiency

Proper insulation ensures that your crawl space stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter, reducing strain on your heating and cooling system. Insulating your crawl space can help lower your energy bills and create a more comfortable home environment.
