A home's crawl space is a small space between the ground and the home that keeps the soil away from the home's structure. This buffer zone protects the home from direct moisture contact and is an excellent place for pipes, electrical wiring, and other essential components in your home. The way this area is built, it usually stays relatively dry. However, humidity and moisture buildup in this area could encourage wood rot and a host of other problems for your home's foundation.

We encourage you to get a crawl space inspection at least once a year to ensure that moisture isn't ruining this part of your home. Call today to schedule your inspection and get a FREE quote on repair or encapsulation services if needed. 

A crawl space in Naperville should remain relatively dry. However, there are times when moisture could develop under your house. This could lead to pest infestations, mold growth, wood rot, and a host of other problems that can compromise the structure of your home. 

If your home is well-built and doesn't show signs of moisture problems, it may be ideal to allow for it to remain as is. However, to play it safe, you can get crawl space encapsulation to keep moisture at bay and protect your home's crawl space.

You may wonder whether installing a vapor barrier and encapsulation are the same. The process is similar. However, they are two ways to control moisture in a crawl space.

Encapsulation is a way of sealing off the entire crawl space with thick plastic. Installing a vapor barrier involves placing a thinner layer of plastic on the ground to keep moisture at bay. While both involve installing plastic, a vapor barrier is a solution that isn't as comprehensive as encapsulation.

If your crawl space isn't keeping water away as it should, you may have developed damage in your crawl space. These damages include wood rot, mold growth, and pest problems. While we can't solve all the problems that have resulted from moisture in your crawl space, we can certainly repair your beams and other structural parts before proceeding with encapsulating your crawl space
