We Treat Your Home Like Our Own


Like most homeowners, chances are you overlook your crawl space until there’s an issue. Your crawl space, the space between the main floor level of your home and the ground, is a hollow area anywhere from typically 1 to 3 feet high. You don’t spend any time there – so why would you worry about it?
Crawlspace moisture can quickly become a costly problem when ignored. A little rainwater isn’t bad, but if you do not dry the crawlspace, a heavy storm or melting snowfall can result in pools of water beneath your home. The ground naturally absorbs some standing water, but the rest? It ends up evaporating up into your home. As much as 40% of the air you breathe while in your home is coming from your crawl space, so conditioning this area becomes important for everyone in your home: you, your family members, and your friends.
The older the home with an unconditioned crawl space, the higher likelihood of damage. A damp or wet crawl space can also cause hazardous mold and mildew to grow, structural wood damage, ductwork damage restricting your home’s airflow, and even sewer line or septic tank ruptures, depending on the severity.
Effective moisture control begins beneath the home. In Joplin, stormwater runoff and saturated soils can cause moisture buildup in crawl spaces, particularly in lower elevation neighborhoods. Crawl space encapsulation helps regulate conditions beneath the structure and reduces the risk of moisture related damage.
A crawl space encapsulation system in Joplin includes interior drainage and a sump pump to help manage groundwater and reduce crawl space flooding. Encapsulation seals the dirt floor with a reinforced vapor barrier that blocks ground moisture and improves indoor air quality.
Crawl space encapsulation installation helps reduce moisture, limit biological growth, and protect against foundation wear and sagging floors. Many Joplin homes benefit from encapsulation due to repeated exposure to moisture and storm related conditions. Each crawl space is evaluated carefully, and any existing damage is addressed before installation.
