A vented, dirt-floor crawl space pulls in humid air all summer and stays damp all winter — encapsulation seals that cycle off completely and it usually shows up on your energy bill within a season.

Four commitments that separate a properly trained crawl space encapsulation crew from a generalist showing up with a truck and a hope.
Our crews are trained in building science fundamentals — stack effect, dew point, vapor drive — not just liner installation.
Most Cedarville, NJ service areas can get an inspection scheduled within a day or two of your call.
Pricing is based on crawl space square footage and the specific liner mil-thickness recommended, quoted in writing before installation.
We install 12–20 mil reinforced polyethylene liners, not the thin painter's-plastic-grade material some crews use to cut cost.
We don't run a one-size-fits-all playbook — every crawl space encapsulation job starts from these core service components, adapted to what your property actually needs.
Seams are taped and mechanically fastened at wall terminations so the barrier performs as one continuous system, not a patchwork of loose sheeting. This is the baseline fix for most crawl spaces showing chronic humidity above 60%.
Older homes with foundation vents are actually pulling humid outside air in during summer months — the opposite of what venting was originally intended to do.
A properly sized dehumidifier, drained to a sump pit or gravity line, keeps relative humidity below the 55% threshold where mold and wood-destroying insects thrive. Units include a humidistat so the system only runs when actually needed, not continuously.
Crawl spaces with a history of standing water need drainage addressed before encapsulation, or the liner just traps water underneath itself.
Prolonged moisture exposure softens floor joists and sill plates well before it's visible from inside the home.
Four steps, start to finish — from the first call to a sealed, humidity-controlled crawl space.
A quick phone triage helps us bring the right liner mil-thickness and dehumidifier sizing information to the first visit.
You'll get a text confirmation with an arrival window before the technician heads out.
A full crawl space walkthrough — vent count, pier count, moisture readings, existing insulation condition — leads to a specific liner and dehumidifier recommendation.
The space isn't considered complete until relative humidity readings confirm the system is holding at target levels, not just until the liner is down.
