The crawl space beneath your home plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity of key systems like plumbing, electrical wiring, and insulation. Coastal homes, in particular, are more prone to moisture and humidity issues that can lead to serious problems such as mold growth, structural damage, and poor air quality. To keep your home safe from these risks, we offer specialized crawl space encapsulation solutions that are specifically designed to address the challenges faced in humid environments.

By working with Elite Moisture Solutions, you will benefit from:

  • A complete evaluation of your crawl space, identifying any areas of concern, including potential water damage and mold.
  • Targeted humidity and moisture control plans tailored for coastal conditions, ensuring your home is protected from the high moisture levels typical in the region.
  • A careful inspection of your foundation to detect any vulnerabilities where water might enter, such as cracks or weak points.
  • Expert removal of compromised materials, including moldy or water-damaged components.
  • Repairs and reinforcements to stabilize your crawl space and prevent future issues.
  • Continuous monitoring and follow-up visits to confirm that your crawl space remains dry and properly sealed against future moisture problems.

With our encapsulation services, you can be confident that your home is protected from the common risks posed by the coastal climate, ensuring the health and longevity of your property for years to come.

Benefits of Crawl Space Encapsulation

Mold Prevention: Encapsulation helps control moisture levels in your crawl space, significantly reducing the likelihood of mold growth. This can protect both your home’s structure and the health of its occupants.

Preserves Home Systems: By keeping moisture out, encapsulation helps to protect systems like your HVAC unit and water heater from damage caused by damp conditions, potentially extending their lifespan.

Improves Air Quality: Sealing your crawl space can lead to better indoor air quality, as it reduces the circulation of moisture and mold spores that can otherwise infiltrate your living space.

Prevents Structural Damage: Encapsulation prevents wood rot in areas like subflooring and joists by limiting moisture exposure, helping to preserve the structural integrity of your home.

Energy Efficiency: Insulating your crawl space can improve your home’s overall energy efficiency by helping regulate indoor temperatures, which can reduce heating and cooling costs.

Property Value: Homes with encapsulated crawl spaces tend to be more appealing to buyers, as this addition shows proactive maintenance and protection against common moisture-related issues.

Pest Control: By sealing off entry points, encapsulation can help minimize the presence of pests and wildlife in your crawl space.

Added Storage: A dry and controlled crawl space offers the possibility of extra storage, free from concerns about moisture or pest damage.

Have Questions? Contact Us Today!

Comprehensive Water and Debris Removal: Unlike basic services, we start by completely clearing your crawl space of any standing water and debris, ensuring a clean environment before we begin sealing.

Complete Sealing Process: We go beyond surface-level fixes by thoroughly sealing every vent, gap, crack, and opening, providing maximum protection against air and moisture intrusion.

Exterior Moisture Barrier: To further protect your crawl space, we create an additional exterior barrier, reducing the risk of future water infiltration, a step that some companies may overlook.

Mold Remediation: If mold is present, we handle it with professional treatments, ensuring that the issue is fully addressed and not left to spread or worsen.

Insulation Replacement: We don’t just encapsulate — we also replace damaged or inadequate insulation to help maintain temperature regulation and energy efficiency within your crawl space.

Custom Drainage Solutions: Where needed, we install French drains or sump pumps to effectively manage any excess water, going the extra mile to ensure long-term moisture control.

Reinforced Liners for Durability: We use high-quality, reinforced liners to provide a durable and lasting moisture barrier, offering more strength than standard materials.

Dehumidifier Installation for Long-Term Control: To keep your crawl space dry over time, we install dehumidifiers, ensuring ongoing moisture regulation and air quality improvements.

Lifetime Warranty: Our commitment to quality is backed by a lifetime warranty on our encapsulation services, giving you peace of mind that we stand behind our work.

By focusing on thoroughness and attention to detail, Elite Moisture Solutions ensures that your crawl space is fully protected from moisture and mold — not just in the short term, but for the long haul.

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!

The company installed a vapor guard and dehumidifier in my crawl space under the house. They pulled some junk I had under the house and coordinated the pick-up for me. They also tore down the old insulation which was falling down and had new insulation installed. They did an excellent job and were very professional. I highly recommend them to anyone.

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.

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.
