New Homeowner Wants Crawl Space Encapsulated in Avon By The Sea, NJ

This new homeowner recently purchased a property in Avon by the Sea, NJ and wanted her crawl space encapsulated. So she contacted Crawl Space Solutions and we were sent out to do just that.

First, we sanitized the crawl space and removed all of the debris that was inside. After that, we installed a dimpled plastic drainage matting and a vapor barrier. The vapor barrier is a heavy-duty, 20-mil 7-ply sandwich of high and low-density polyethylene with a polyester-cord reinforcement. It's also extremely durable and treated with an antimicrobial to prevent mold. By installing the vapor barrier over the foundation walls and floor will create a continuous air and moisture barrier.

Lastly, we installed a Sani-Dry Sedona commercial-grade dehumidifier. The Sedona directs the extracted water pulled out of the air directly into the sump pump and will control the humidity levels in the crawl space. The end result is a healthy, moisture controlled, crawl space that the homeowner can also use for extra storage.
