Seal off Every Vent and Opening: You want to stop outdoor from getting into your crawl space. The best way to do so is by sealing off all openings to the outdoors. You can use spray foam and foam board. Air Seal Gaps and Cracks: Once you’re done sealing the major openings and vents, it’s time to focus on any other reaming cracks and gaps. These may include band joists, plumbing penetrations, HVAC drain line runs, and wiring. Choose the Right Crawl Space Encapsulation Professional: Earlier, we pointed out that DIY encapsulation may be a bad idea, especially for homeowners with zero training and experience in crawl space encapsulation. The best move is to choose a reputable crawl space encapsulation contractor to do the job for you.

A properly insulated attic can reduce your heating and cooling costs by up to 40%! We offer foil radiant barriers, blown in fiberglass / cellulose insulation, spray foam and fiberglass batt insulation for attics. For homes or rooms without an attic, spray foam insulation can be a great way to making your home more efficient. Basement or crawl space water intrusion is usually resolved with a french drain. A french drain redirects water into a sump pump or drains out away from the home. If you have water intrusion or see efflorescence / water stains on your concrete walls, reach out for a free french drain estimate.

Cleaning out your crawl space is important to your health. Georgia crawl spaces are typically humid, full of debris and dirt. Up to 60% of the air in your home comes from your crawlspace! During the cleaning process, we will be careful not to dispose of any items you’d like to keep. The cleaning process also is safe for pets and children. Once cleaned, we recommend adding a sanitization treatment to disinfect the crawl space from germs and improve pest control.

Crawl Space Encapsulation is a long term solution to many crawlspace problems, such as mold and moisture. This typically involves covering the foundation pillars, walls and ground with plastic and then sealing everything up to prevent air leaks. Our premium vapor barriers come in multiple thickness levels. Sometimes a dehumidifier is needed to remove the excess moisture on a regular basis. During your initial inspection, we’ll gather the data necessary to complete your quote and offer any advice on what else might be needed. Examples could be mold treatment, a new access door, insulation replacement, further waterproofing and/or a drainage system. Read more information on https://www.atlantacrawlspace.com/.

Don’t Overlook the Importance of a Drainage System: Some homeowners assume that encapsulations will keep water out of their crawl space, and they don’t need a drainage system. The mistake with doing so is that an encapsulation does not prevent water entry or flooding under houses. Damage caused by water can be expensive to repair. Fixing a water-damaged foundation, for instance, can set you back as much as $12,000. To avoid scenarios where water sits against your house, install a water drainage system that directs the water away. A French drain system or a sump pump can help.
