Your crawl space plays a vital role in supporting your home’s infrastructure, housing essential systems like plumbing, electrical wiring, and insulation. However, this area is particularly susceptible to moisture and mold, which can lead to significant damage and potential health risks if not properly managed. At Elite Moisture Solutions, our crawl space encapsulation services in Raleigh are designed to protect both your home and your family, providing long-term security and peace of mind.

When you choose Elite Moisture Solutions for your crawl space encapsulation, you can expect a comprehensive approach that includes:

  • A detailed inspection of your crawl space to identify any existing issues.
  • Assessment of moisture levels and humidity to ensure optimal conditions.
  • Examination of the foundation for cracks or other vulnerabilities that could allow water entry.
  • Safe removal of any compromised materials identified during the inspection.
  • Repairs to damaged areas to restore the integrity of your crawl space.
  • Continued support and follow-up visits to ensure the long-term effectiveness of the encapsulation and to address any moisture concerns that may arise.

What are the Benefits of Crawl Space Encapsulation?

  • Mold Prevention: Sealing your crawlspace helps keep moisture out, significantly reducing the risk of mold developing beneath your home and within your living areas.
  • Protection for Essential Systems: By controlling humidity levels, encapsulation safeguards crucial systems like your HVAC and water heaters from moisture-related damage.
  • Improved Indoor Air Quality: Encapsulation helps to keep the air in your home clean by preventing damp, musty air from entering your living spaces.
  • Wood and Subfloor Preservation: Keeping moisture at bay prevents wood rot and deterioration of structural components like subflooring and supports.
  • Energy Efficiency: Encapsulation enhances insulation under your home, leading to more stable indoor temperatures and reduced energy bills.
  • Increased Property Value: A well-maintained, moisture-free crawlspace can boost your home’s market value and appeal to potential buyers.
  • Pest and Wildlife Deterrence: Sealing the crawlspace reduces entry points for pests and small animals, helping to keep your home free of unwanted intruders.
  • Additional Storage: Encapsulation creates a dry, clean environment in your crawlspace, turning it into a usable area for extra storage.

The Elite Approach to Crawl Space Encapsulation

We start by thoroughly clearing your crawl space, removing any standing water and debris to prepare the area for treatment. Our process involves meticulously sealing all vents, gaps, cracks, and openings to create a secure barrier against outside air and moisture. To further protect your space, we apply an exterior seal that effectively prevents moisture from entering your crawl space.

If mold is detected, we implement targeted treatments to eliminate it completely. We also replace any compromised insulation to maintain a properly conditioned environment within your home. Depending on your specific needs, we may install French drains or sump pumps to manage water drainage effectively.

To ensure long-lasting protection, we use reinforced liners that are designed for durability. A high-quality dehumidifier is then installed to maintain optimal moisture levels. With our encapsulation services, you can rest easy knowing that we back our work with a lifetime warranty, giving you peace of mind that your home is well-protected.

There's a reason Chris, the owner, has the word Elite in his company name. Chris and his team (Ben is amazing!) are top notch. They do what they say, when they say, how they say it. If you're looking for a professional crawlspace company, gives these guys a call. You'll be glad you did.

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.

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!!

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!
