The owner of this home contacted us with concerns about their crawl space and foundation. They mentioned critters like to live under the house sometimes and there are musty moldy smells that get worse during more humid seasons. There were also some cracks around the home that was a cause for concern.

One of our inspectors came out to the property and did a thorough inspection of the foundation of the home. In the crawl space, the measured relative humidity level of the air was above 80%, a very high level. The wood moisture level was also measured, coming in at 26%. The relative humidity should be kept at about 55%, and with the wood moisture level being near 2x the safe range, the wood supporting the floor of the home has already started to be affected, leading to mold or wood rot. With this in mind, the inspector recommended having our CleanSpace Encapsulation System installed to seal off the harmful moisture levels, monitoring & controlling the relative humidity to around 55%. The homeowner decided to move forward with having the project done, and our team installed the encapsulation.
