Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation in Raleigh, NC

Unpleasant odors that won’t go away, mold sprouting throughout your house, and seeing more pests than usual are telltale signs that the crawl space of your Raleigh, NC, home is in trouble. You may not think about this area underneath your house that often, but because 50% of your home’s air comes from the crawl space, its condition plays a vital role in the overall health of your home. Regularly checking it for damage and promptly repairing those issues is key.
However, the crawl space is a delicate and dangerous area that you should not venture into on your own. The experienced professionals at Tar Heel Basement Systems have the tools, training, and proper protection and equipment to investigate your crawl space. Homeowners throughout Raleigh have trusted us with their crawl space inspections, repair, and encapsulations for nearly 20 years. If you suspect your crawl space is endangering your home, don’t hesitate to contact us for assistance.
THE TAR HEEL BASEMENT SYSTEMS PROCESS
Crawl Space Problems in Raleigh
Home essentials like ductwork and plumbing may be housed in your Raleigh crawl space, but mold, pests, and other dangers also could have taken up residence. Scheduling a crawl space inspection with the pros at Tar Heel is the best way to check for hazards. Your inspector will check for water leaks, ineffective vapor barriers, wet insulation, wood rot, high humidity, open vents, damaged doors, condensation, and other problem signs. You can also notice problem signs throughout the rest of your house, such as musty odors, increased pest activity, mold growth, higher than normal energy bills, and sagging or uneven floors.
Causes of Crawl Space Damage in Raleigh
Raleigh’s notorious humidity is behind most of the problems in your crawl space, but there are additional, co-occurring causes of crawl space damage, as well. Many crawl spaces were constructed with open vents intended to increase airflow and mitigate moisture and mold. But these features have been found to do more harm than good and allow Raleigh’s humid air, frequent precipitation, and pests inside. These dangers aren’t confined to the crawl space, as the poor air quality and other conditions will rise and circulate in the air throughout the home because of the stack effect. Additionally, if the home’s load was not calculated correctly, over spanned floor joists will not be able to support the structure.
Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation Solutions in Raleigh
Along with checking your own crawl space for problems, installing DIY repairs is also ill-advised. It’s important to have crawl space repair and encapsulation solutions installed the right way the first time, and that’s exactly what Tar Heel experts do. Your Raleigh crawl space will benefit from a variety of our permanent solutions including vapor barriers, vent covers, interior drains, sump pumps, dehumidifiers, thermal insulation, and support posts.
