Crawl Space Vapor Barriers

Crawl Space Vapor Barrier Solutions

The crawl space is typically the most neglected part of every home.  If your crawl space is chronically moist and damp, then you will have serious issues to deal with, including mold and structural damage in the future. Through the installation of a crawl space vapor barrier, we can properly encapsulate your crawl space, keeping it safe from water, pests, and more in Northern VA.

Crawl space moisture is very problematic due to the fact that it is the perfect environment for mold to grow. As mold spreads, it releases spores into the air. These spores can be dangerous if breathed in. A majority of the air in your home cycles through the basement at one point or another. This means mold spores can easily spread to all corners of your home.

Signs of Crawl Space Damage

If you don’t check your crawl space very often, it may be a shock to discover some signs of damage, including:

• Rotting wood
• High humidity
• Signs of mold or musty smells
• Condensation on ductwork

If you notice any of these, contact the experts at Basement Masters Waterproofing to get a head start on making repairs to your home and prevent future problems.

Crawl Space Waterproofing Methods

When water, water damage, or mold is building up in your home, we want to act quickly to reduce the long term effects. Basement Masters’ first step in waterproofing the crawl space of your home is to set up vapor barriers.

When standing water, water damage, or mold is building up in your home, it is important to act quickly to reduce the long-term effects they can cause. The first step our team at Basement Masters takes when waterproofing the crawl space of your home is to set up vapor barriers.

Vapor barriers prevent moisture from coming through the ground in your crawl space and disturbing the quality of air in your home. Vapor barriers are made of puncture-resistant, high tensile material that will stop moisture from coming into your home.  If your basement is experiencing moisture issues, we can install vapor barriers in there as well. Your home will be fully protected from future water damage. After the application of the vapor barrier, the final thing that our team will do is dehumidify the space to remove any lingering moisture in the air, leaving your home safe and dry.
