Crawlspace encapsulation offers more benefits than you might expect.
Many homeowners overlook the crawlspace when it comes to home maintenance, but this out-of-the-way area is critical to overall home health. Our team at All Dry Basement Solutions can help ensure your crawlspace is working for you and not the other way around with crawlspace encapsulation.
Crawlspace encapsulation is a highly effective method for improving air quality, protecting your home’s foundation, and increasing energy efficiency. The process starts with a thorough examination of the area to assess what needs to be done. For instance, groundwater can be drained out thanks to one of our advanced drainage systems. Additionally, we can attach a moisture barrier to the floor, piers, and foundation walls to keep the earth’s moisture at bay or add a thermal barrier to the walls and apply an air seal on any cracks.
When you contact us about crawlspace encapsulation, we can also review the benefits it offers beyond better air quality, such as preventing structural damage and improving energy efficiency. At the same time, we will answer any questions you have to make sure you have all the details you need to make an informed decision about your home’s crawlspace.
Our local, family-owned company is part of the Basement Health Association, and we have an A+ rating on BBB. In addition, we offer free consultations and great warranties and strive to provide each of our customers with the support they need when they need it most.

Why should I encapsulate my home’s crawlspace?
Even minor moisture issues in your crawlspace can lead to serious problems over time. For instance, high levels of humidity can encourage mold and mildew growth, which can exacerbate respiratory problems and lead to musty odors. Furthermore, the spores may spread to other areas of your home, causing an extensive mold problem that can be time-consuming and difficult to resolve. Pests are also attracted to moist, dark areas, so your unsealed crawlspace can become a luxurious home for mice, rats, and even termites. Lastly, an unsealed crawlspace can force your HVAC system to work harder to regulate the temperature and humidity levels in your house, causing your energy bills to rise.
How long does the encapsulation process take?
Although it depends on the size and complexity of your crawlspace, our technicians can typically complete the job within one to three days. When we meet with you for an initial consultation, we’ll give you a tailored timeline and quote for you to review.
How will encapsulation reduce my energy bills?
Our encapsulation methods are designed to seal out air from the outdoors, making your home more thoroughly insulated. Without outdoor air constantly seeping into your house, your HVAC system won’t have to work as hard, which can result in lower energy bills.
