Who doesn’t love the summer? Relaxing days at the beach, backyard barbecues, and long evenings spent on the porch with an ice-cold drink. But you know what probably doesn’t love summer as much? Your crawl space.Â
The season’s humidity and usual rainstorms create a damp, musty environment where growth, wood rot, and pests can thrive. And when moisture starts building up under your home, it usually doesn’t just stay there—it can creep into your living spaces, making your home feel muggy and even affecting your indoor air quality.
Encapsulating your crawl space is a great way to keep moisture and pests out of your home, creating a safer and more comfortable living space for you and your family. Give Morris-Jenkins a call today to schedule crawl space encapsulation in Charlotte and the surrounding areas.
The goal of crawl space encapsulation is simple: to keep moisture and humidity out. But how do we do that?
Well, we use a couple of different methods depending on your specific crawl space. Our team will either glue foam crawl space insulation to the brick walls or place encapsulated insulation under the floor. This creates a protective barrier that helps regulate temperature and moisture levels.
Next, we’ll install a thick membrane across your walls and floor and make sure any vents are closed. This keeps any humidity from the outside air from entering the space. Finally, we’ll put a dehumidifier in the crawl space so you can manually adjust humidity levels whenever needed.
With crawl space encapsulation, you can say goodbye to musty smells, unwanted pests, and excess humidity—because your home should feel fresh and comfortable from top to bottom!
We know that dealing with crawl space issues isn’t exactly at the top of your to-do list. That’s why we make the process easy and stress-free!
A homeowner’s worst nightmare… Damp, warm, and dark environments are well-known for providing musty odors due to growth… yuck.
Crawl space encapsulation helps stop growth before it starts by sealing out excess moisture and keeping humidity levels in check. By creating a dry, controlled environment, we make sure your crawl space stays growth-free so you can breathe easier and keep your home safe from hidden damage!
Not many things are as unpleasant as breathing musty air full of dust and allergens. And you deserve better than that! But what’s lurking under your home can ultimately affect the air inside it. If your crawl space is damp and unsealed, moisture, growth, and other contaminants can creep up into your living space, making your home feel humid and your air less fresh.
Crawl space encapsulation helps create a cleaner, healthier environment by sealing out excess moisture and reducing the risk of growth.
You know the stereotype… pests LOVE damp, dark environments. And an unsealed crawl space might as well be an open invitation for termites, spiders, rodents, and cockroaches to move right in.Â
Keeping pests out of your crawl space all starts with encapsulation. With a dry, well-protected crawl space, you won’t have to worry about unwanted guests lurking beneath your floors—just a cleaner, safer home for you and your family!
Moisture isn’t the only thing that likes to enter your crawl space; the outside air can sneak in, too! In the summer, hot, humid air seeps into your crawl space, making your home feel muggy and forcing your AC to work overtime. In the winter, chilly air creeps in, making your floors colder and driving up your heating costs.
Encapsulating your crawl space means your HVAC system won’t have to work as hard to keep your home at the set temperature. This reduces the amount of energy you’re using, leading to lower energy bills and a more comfortable home year-round.
Crawl space encapsulation is a big investment, and you wanna make sure it’s built to last—we totally understand! The good news is crawl space encapsulation can be effective for decades when installed correctly.Â
The key to making it last is through proper sealing and quality materials. When your crawl space is fully encapsulated, it keeps moisture, pests, and humidity from creeping in, helping to prevent damage over time. Unlike quick fixes, encapsulation is a long-term solution that keeps working without much maintenance.
That said, it’s always a good idea to check in on your crawl space every so often—especially after heavy storms or extreme weather. If anything ever seems off, Morris-Jenkins is just a call away.
