Help protect your family and your home from excess moisture, toxic mold, unwanted pests, soil gases and harmful airborne allergens with our Crawl Space Encapsulation Richmond Team. With a Perma-Seal Crawl Space Encapsulation System, you can turn your dark, dingy crawl space into a bright, healthy, usable space. Encapsulating your crawl space is very different from waterproofing a basement, it involves the use of a heavy duty liner as well as a specially designed drainage system and sump pump to remove the water from your home.
Some of the features and benefits of encapsulating your crawl space are:
An encapsulated crawl space will add additional bright, clean usable storage space to your home.
Added insulation can help reduce your heating and cooling costs.
The wall and floor liners act as a barrier to insects, gases, odors and moisture, enhancing air quality throughout your entire living space and creating a healthier home.
You can increase the resale value of your home. Water problems must be disclosed when you sell the house, which could turn away potential buyers.
If any future problems occur, our Encapsulation System can be cut and re-seamed with minimal disruption.
Wall and Floor Liners
After homeowners remove their belongings and a rough grade is established, we place a floor liner over the ground to become the base of the encapsulation system. These liners help disperse soil gases and enhance water drainage below the floor liner. Then, one of our wall liners is completely sealed over the floor and walls to fully encapsulate the crawl space and isolate the area from the outside earth. All of our wall liners are 100% waterproof and will act as a barrier to moisture, gases, insects and odors, and will not support any mold growth. They are designed to direct any wall seepage straight into the drainage system and sump pump, helping keep your crawl space dry.
