Majority of homes in North Carolina have been built on a crawlspace as they were less expensive than a basement but still provided access to the major systems (plumbing, electric, HVAC) that is under the house. The trouble is that crawlspaces are the perfect environment for mold to grow and thrive as they are dark and typically damp. Crawl space encapsulation systems have been designed to solve this problem as they are built to keep moisture out and condition the space under your home.

Our team of experts can provide you with a free crawlspace evaluation and estimate which will help you determine if your crawlspace is safe and, in turn, if your home is healthy. We provide high-quality crawl space systems as well as timely service. Here’s an example of a crawlspace encapsulation project in Chapel Hill that we did so you can see the professional results and attention to detail.

Unsure if encapsulating your crawlspace is right for you? Give us a call and we can provide you with a free, no-obligation inspection and estimate!

I was very pleased with the work performed by Elite Moisture Solutions recently. They proposed a solution for my crawl space which included a complete gut of the existing vapor barrier, installation of a new, thicker vapor barrier, dehumidifier and new insulation that was lacking before. Immediately the smell of a humid, musty crawl space was gone which also alleviated the musty smell in my home that would surface when the HVAC kicked on. Well worth the cost and the team was extremely professional and the craftsmanship was best in class! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have similar work performed on their home.

This company did a great job for me. They cleaned up the mold, removed old insulation, installed new insulation & dehumidifier and made my crawlspace to work efficiently to keep out the moisture and stay dry. I could not be more pleased! Plus every guy they sent out was polite and did good work to get my crawlspace up to snuff. Thanks guys!!

Our home was built in 1994 and the old (primitive) method of crawl space grading and a corner drainage pipe stopped working (the pipe clogged after 30 years). Chris and his team, who are very professional, assessed the situation and presented available options (as well as inspecting for mold). We decided to go with the full encapsalation and our crawl space moisture issues as well as the potential for mold are gone. Highly recommended and it was a pleasure to support a local business.

Chris, Ben, and team did a fantastic job on the crawl space encapsulation for my home in Durham. Ben led the project and gave me updates along the way as to exactly what they were doing and why. It was done on time and the quality was great. We now have the peace of mind knowing that our homes crawl space is dry, clean, and mold free for the next 30 years. I would highly recommend using Elite Moisture Solutions.

I had mold under my crawlspace and had several people come out and look at it. All said I needed to have it encapsulated and I got quotes from 3 people. One barely told me what was going to happen and one was about 3k less than Elite was. But no one took the time to explain exactly what they were going to do, how they were going to do it and why they were doing it that way Chris did. He was not only professional, but friendly, knew what he was talking about, and offered no pressure at all. He seemed to truly want to do the job right for me. And his staff completely came through! They were also very knowledgeable, so, so clean and so kind! I would have them do work for me any day of the week! When I say clean, there was not a spec of trash left after they were done each day. They were extremely respectful of me and my property, and even of the black snake that took up residence under my home, letting him work his way out instead of killing him. All in all, this company was one I would easily pay more to work with because they do the job right. I don't worry about the work done under my house, because I know it was done by a company with integrity, kindness and respect. Thank you Chris and Elite Moisture Solutions!
