Many homeowners never think twice about their crawl space, but the area beneath your home is cool, dark, and damp, making it an ideal breeding ground for dangerous mold. If left untreated, wood rot could even overtake your home. If you notice any amount of standing water in your home’s crawl space, seek help ASAP.
Since 2012, Michigan Basements has provided crawl space encapsulation solutions to Clarkston, Michigan, and the rest of West Oakland’s Lakes Area. Michigan Basements performs airtight crawl space encapsulation for water and moisture mitigation.
A small leak seems like a minor annoyance at first, but it can become a massive problem over time. Crawl space air holds moisture, and the ensuing water damage wreaks havoc on your basement, leading to the growth of harmful mold and bacteria.
As a homeowner, it’s important to keep your crawl space dry and free of excess humidity, as standing water and excess moisture threaten the home’s structural integrity. To protect yourself against water damage and preserve your property’s value, turn to Michigan Basements. Our innovative triple protection waterproofing systems and wall liners prevent water from infiltrating basements and crawl spaces in Clarkston, Michigan, and throughout the Metro Detroit area. When we encapsulate the floor and walls of the crawl space area, we create a perfectly sealed system so vapor, moisture, and harmful gases do not rise up through your home.
Whether you need complete waterproofing solutions, foundation repair, or help encapsulating your crawl space, Michigan Basements has services that will keep your home dry and help your family stay healthy.

Crawl spaces — especially dirt crawl spaces with damp earth — are often poorly-insulated and at risk of holding moisture. This can lead to major mold problems in your home as well as higher energy bills.
To combat this problem, the crawl space encapsulation process includes wrapping every part of a crawl space with a moisture barrier, including the foundation walls, foundation piers, floor joists, and the ground itself. A crawl space moisture barrier (also known as a crawl space vapor barrier) is a special piece of sheeting used to seal off areas and prevent the accumulation of moisture. The added insulation provided by this process can also improve your home’s energy efficiency and lower your electricity bills. As an added bonus, an encapsulated crawl space keeps rodents and insects out of your home, too.
However, simply laying a vapor barrier down won’t make much difference. If a crawl space vapor barrier is not installed correctly, excess moisture will continue to cause crawl space problems. In fact, if the vapor barrier does not function properly, it could make a moisture issue worse by insulating and accelerating mold growth.
Luckily, when you partner with Michigan Basements, there’s no need to worry. We have years of experience fixing wet basements, performing waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, and foundation repair throughout southeast Michigan.
Encapsulation is the method of protecting a crawl space from excess moisture. In most cases, this is accomplished by installing a vapor barrier on the floor and up the wall of the crawl space. Encapsulation helps in many ways, including:
The cost of crawl space encapsulation will vary depending on several factors, such as the crawl space size and how your home was constructed, but Michigan Basements will do everything we can to help you save money and protect your home against structural damage.
