Everything your crawl space needs — from full encapsulation to targeted moisture repairs. Licensed, insured, and locally operated in Rutherford County.
Full encapsulation is the most effective long-term solution for crawl space moisture problems. Our team creates a completely sealed, conditioned environment under your home by combining vapor barriers, sealed vents, wall insulation, and humidity control into one integrated system.
Unlike a basic vapor barrier alone, full encapsulation addresses all entry points for moisture — the ground, the foundation walls, and the vents. The result is a crawl space that maintains low, stable humidity year-round, regardless of Tennessee's seasonal weather swings.
Tennessee summers regularly push crawl space humidity above 80%. At that level, mold can establish in as little as 24–48 hours. A fully encapsulated crawl space stays below 55% RH year-round — the threshold where mold cannot grow and wood decay stops.
A vapor barrier is the foundation of any crawl space moisture control system. We install commercial-grade 20-mil polyethylene sheeting across your entire crawl space floor and up the foundation walls, creating a physical barrier between the damp soil and your home's structure.
Many builders install thin 6-mil plastic that tears easily and allows moisture to seep through seams. Our 20-mil reinforced barriers are puncture-resistant, overlap all seams by 12 inches with tape and adhesive, and are designed to hold up for 20+ years.
All seams overlapped 12"+ and sealed with specialized tape and adhesive — no moisture gaps.
We run the barrier up the foundation walls and secure it at the top — covering all moisture entry points.
3× thicker than typical hardware store plastic. Walk-on durable, puncture-resistant, and built to last.
Some crawl spaces don't just get humid — they take on actual standing water during heavy rain events. Murfreesboro's geography and clay-heavy soils mean many homes experience seasonal water intrusion under the foundation. We install interior drainage systems and sump pumps that actively remove water rather than just containing it.
Waterproofing is typically installed before or in conjunction with vapor barrier/encapsulation work — there's no point sealing a crawl space that still has active water intrusion.
Mold in your crawl space isn't just an under-the-house problem — research shows that 40–50% of the air in your home's living areas comes directly from the crawl space through a phenomenon called the "stack effect." Mold spores, odors, and allergens migrate upward into the rooms where your family lives.
Our mold remediation process addresses both the mold itself and the moisture condition that caused it — so it doesn't come back.
Old fiberglass batt insulation in a vented crawl space is one of the least effective places to put insulation — and one of the most common sources of moisture and pest problems. It absorbs water, sags, and falls, providing a nesting environment for rodents while doing little to improve your energy efficiency.
We remove damaged or inadequate insulation and replace it with systems appropriate for an encapsulated crawl space:
Proper insulation in an encapsulated crawl space typically reduces heating and cooling costs by 10–20% for Murfreesboro homeowners.
In a fully encapsulated crawl space, a commercial-grade dehumidifier is often the final piece of the puzzle — especially in homes where the crawl space can't be connected to the home's HVAC supply. We install, size, and configure dehumidifiers that maintain relative humidity below 55% year-round, even during Tennessee's humid summers.
Unlike consumer dehumidifiers from a hardware store, the units we install are:
Our free crawl space inspection identifies exactly what's happening under your home and what it will take to fix it — no guesswork, no upselling.
