Crawl Space Encapsulation
Crawl space encapsulation is the process of sealing a crawl space from ground moisture and outside air by lining the floor and walls with a heavy reinforced vapor barrier, closing the foundation vents, sealing the rim joist, and controlling the remaining humidity with a dedicated dehumidifier.

Crawl Space Repair
Crawl space repair is the correction of the physical defects under a house, covering foundation pier and girder repair, floor joist and sill replacement, drainage correction, vapor barrier replacement, insulation removal and mold treatment, scoped from a single diagnostic inspection.
$1,800 – $16,000 · 1 to 6 days depending on scope
Crawl Space Mold Removal
Crawl space mold removal is the physical removal of mold growth from framing, subfloor and insulation in a crawl space, followed by correcting the moisture source that allowed the growth, because mold that is cleaned without fixing the humidity returns within a season.

Crawl Space Waterproofing
Crawl space waterproofing is the set of systems that intercept water before it reaches the crawl space floor and remove what still gets in, combining exterior grading and downspout correction, interior perimeter drainage, a sealed sump basin with a pump, and wall sealing where hydrostatic pressure is present.

Crawl Space Vapor Barrier Installation
A crawl space vapor barrier is a sheet material laid over the crawl space soil to stop water vapor from evaporating out of the ground into the crawl space air, and a Class 1 vapor retarder is one with a permeance of 0.1 perm or less.

Floor Joist and Sagging Floor Repair
Floor joist repair restores the load-carrying capacity of a floor system from inside the crawl space by sistering, replacing or supplementing joists, repairing or replacing girders and sill plates, and re-establishing bearing at failed piers, which is what stops a floor from sagging or bouncing.
$1,200 – $9,500 · 1 to 4 days on site
Crawl Space Moisture and Humidity Control
Crawl space moisture control is the management of relative humidity under a house to a target below 60 percent, using a ground vapor barrier, sealed vents and rim joist, and a correctly sized dehumidifier, because 60 percent is the threshold above which mold growth on wood becomes sustainable.

Crawl Space Insulation
Crawl space insulation in a humid climate like Metro Atlanta means insulating the foundation walls of a sealed crawl space rather than the floor above it, because wall insulation in a sealed crawl space keeps the space at house temperature and eliminates the condensing surface that fiberglass floor batts create.

Crawl Space Drainage Systems
A crawl space drainage system is the network of perforated pipe, washed stone, sump basin and discharge line that collects water arriving at or under the crawl space floor and moves it to a discharge point away from the foundation before it can pond.
$2,800 – $11,000 · 2 to 4 days on site
Crawl Space Cleanout and Debris Removal
Crawl space cleanout is the removal of construction debris, failed insulation, old plastic, rodent contamination and organic material from a crawl space, which is both a prerequisite for any barrier or encapsulation work and a standalone fix for odor and pest problems.
$800 – $4,500 · 1 to 2 days on site
Crawl Space Inspection
A crawl space inspection is a documented assessment of the structure, moisture conditions and air quality under a house, producing measured readings, photographs of every defect, and a written scope that separates what has to be fixed from what can wait.
