Crawlspace Encapsulation

Identifying a Wet Crawlspace

A wet crawlspace poses significant risks to both the health of your home’s occupants and the structural integrity of your building. Be alert for these key warning signs:

Understanding the Cause

The primary cause of a wet crawlspace often lies in a dirt floor, which acts as a constant source of humidity. Evaporation of this moisture increases the humidity level within the crawlspace, creating an environment conducive to problems like mold growth and structural decay.

Our Long-Lasting Solution:

Dehumidify, Seal, Decontaminate

Dehumidifying a Crawlspace:

- The first crucial step is to dehumidify the crawlspace, cleaning the air and protecting the building.

- Depending on the problem, installing a drain and a sump pump might be necessary to effectively dry out the space.

Sealing a Crawlspace:

- Dehumidification alone isn't enough; the ground remains humid, transmitting moisture to foundation walls.

- CP Reparation Fondation, in partnership with SafeBasements, offers an innovative waterproofing membrane for the floor and walls of your crawlspace. This membrane blocks moisture from the ground and foundation, maintaining a dry environment.

- The white VPS 22mil membrane is durable, washable, and aesthetically pleasing with its reflective surface. It can be installed directly on a dirt floor, resulting in a cleaner, healthier crawlspace.

Decontaminating a Crawlspace:

- Despite drying and sealing, summer condensation can still lead to mold and fungus growth on wood framing.

- This issue is exacerbated when hot and cold air meet, especially along foundation walls during seasonal temperature changes.

- To combat this, we offer a dehumidifying and air treatment system to maintain low humidity levels and ensure quality air throughout the year.
