1. Crawlspace Encapsulation
Moisture inside a crawlspace is the root cause of wood decay, insect infestations, saggy floorboards, and high utility bills. Our signature encapsulation process transforms your dark, humid under-home cavity into a clean, dry, conditioned space.
- **Medical-Grade Vapor Barrier:** We seal the crawlspace floor and walls with an ultra-thick, reinforced multi-layer barrier that blocks all soil vapors.
- **Advanced Vent Sealing:** All exterior vents and penetrations are permanently sealed to prevent warm, humid summer air from getting trapped under your house.
- **Dehumidification Systems:** Installation of heavy-duty, self-draining commercial dehumidifiers that maintain absolute humidity below 55%.
2. Mold & Odor Remediation (BIOShield™)
Most crawl space companies spray a coating, fog a chemical, and call it done — leaving the mold alive at the root. Our BIOShield™ process removes contamination, kills mold at the source, and establishes a clean-air environment that prevents it from returning.
- **Manual Wiping with Benefect Decon 30:** Rather than just spraying or fogging the surface, we hand-wipe every joist with microfiber towels. This physical agitation ensures the hospital-grade, family-safe sanitizer reaches and kills mold at the roots.
- **Temporary HEPA Air Scrubbing:** During active cleanout, we run HEPA air scrubbers both in your crawl space and inside your home to protect your family's indoor air quality so you don't have to leave during treatment.
- **Environment-Based Prevention:** We control the humidity and moisture that let mold grow in the first place, using self-regulating dehumidifiers to keep relative humidity below 55% so regrowth is physically impossible.
3. Water Mediation & Drainage
Standing water in your crawlspace erodes foundation support soil, shifts piers, and creates excessive relative humidity. We install state-of-the-art water removal systems designed to keep crawlspaces bone-dry year round.
- **Smart Sump Pumps:** Cast-iron primary pumps paired with optional battery-backup systems and dual-float controls for zero fail rates.
- **Interior French Drains:** Perforated pipe wrapped in filtration fabrics, sub-surface trenched along crawlspace perimeters to intercept seepage.
- **Downspout Extensions & Grading:** Resolving yard runoff by routing gutter downspouts far away from your foundation block walls.
4. Foundation & Structural Repair
Bowing walls, sagging crawlspace beams, and bouncy floorboards occur when timber supports decay from mold or load-bearing columns settle over time. We restore structural stability without invasive excavations.
- **Adjustable Support Columns:** High-strength galvanized steel support jacks are locked onto deep concrete footings to correct sagging floor joists.
- **Sill Plate & Joist sistering:** Replacing or reinforcing wood beams that have suffered structural dry rot or termite damage.
- **Permanent Settlement Fixes:** Halting structural movement with heavy-duty engineered piers.
