What is Encapsulation?

Protecting Your Crawlspace With Polyurethane Foam

If your “spidey-sense” is tingling when it comes to your crawlspace telling you that there may be a problem, then you are probably right. Are you experiencing moisture, humidity, musty smells, leaks, or other similar symptoms? Then you likely have a crawlspace that is leaking or allowing moisture to enter. This leads to problems in the crawlspace itself, as well as the floors above. Your crawlspace is integral to the health and stability of your home, so you may be wondering “what can I do to protect it?” The answer is encapsulation! Foam All Spray Foam can utilize spray foam insulation couple with plastic sheeting to create a protective barrier around your crawlspace!

How Does Encapsulation Work?

If you are suffering from a damp basement, or worse, visible moisture and mold growth then encapsulation is a solution you should consider. This is the process of sealing your crawlspace to prevent water, moisture, and mold that keeps your space dry and can eliminate mold growth in the process. Foam All team members will inspect your crawlspace and determine if encapsulation is right for you.

The team at Foam All will use a combination of strong, plastic sheeting and polyurethane spray foam to cover the walls and floor of your crawlspace, creating a protective barrier around the entire structure. In doing so, wiping out the possibility of water damage and mold growth!

Why is a Dry Crawlspace Important?

When you have a wet crawlspace you not simply have a moisture problem. It is what happens because of that moisture that is the real problem. Because you have water or dampness, you will also see:

  • Higher humidity levels in your home
  • Increased pests
  • Increase in your energy costs
  • Wood rot
  • Musty odors
  • Sagging beams and structural issues
  • Mold spores that spread through upper floors

You can count on the experienced team at Foam All Spray Foam to properly and efficiently protect your crawlspace and ultimately your home. If you have concerns and are ready for an inspection, please contact our team today for your free estimate.
