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.

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.
