Crawl Space EncLOSURE Services
Seal, protect, and control your crawl space from outside moisture, air, and pests.
What Is Crawl Space Enclosure?
A crawl space enclosure is the process of closing off open crawl space vents and exterior gaps to prevent outside air, moisture, pests, and debris from entering the crawl space.
Unlike traditional vented crawl spaces, an enclosed crawl space creates a controlled environment that works together with moisture control systems like vapor barriers, encapsulation, and dehumidifiers.
What to know about
Crawl Space Enclosure:
Why Is Enclosure Important?
Open crawl spaces allow humid air, rainwater, rodents, insects, and outdoor pollutants to enter beneath your home. Over time, this leads to:
- High humidity and condensation
- Mold and fungus growth
- Wood rot and structural damage
- Increased energy costs
- Poor indoor air quality
Enclosure is a critical step toward long-term crawl space health.
