Crawl Space Encapsulation in Apex

Did you know that your crawl space is the origin of most of the dirty air in your home?

According to the EPA, 60% of all the air on your first floor passes through your crawl space! And because your crawl space is kept under negative pressure (due to HVAC leaks and the perforations between the floor and your crawl space), warm, humid air is literally drawn into your crawl space. This effectively turns that forgotten bit of space beneath your home into a breeding ground for microbes and mold. And because warm air rises, it then floats up into your first-floor living areas for all to inhale.

Waterproofing your crawl space is key to solving this problem. And the best way to do this? A custom crawl space encapsulation in Apex from Crawl Space and Basement Technologies.

6 Reasons to Encapsulate and Seal your Apex Home’s Crawl Space

Save money! Many homes see up to a 15% decrease in annual energy costs after crawl space encapsulation by our Apex professionals. Unsealed crawl spaces make it easier for air to get in/out of your home. So in the summer, the hot air outside gets in while your cool HVAC air is getting out (and vice versa for the winter). According to the U.S. Department of Energy, “If you properly insulate your crawl space – in addition to air sealing and controlling moisture – you will save on energy costs and increase your home’s comfort.”
Discourage insects and rodents. A crawl space provides the warm, damp environment bugs and rodents love. Encapsulating your crawl space helps eliminate both those tempting elements.
Eliminate crawl space air transmission. Sealing your crawl space stops the “vapor vacuum” that occurs due to the outside/inside pressure difference.
Banish odors. Keeping moisture at bay helps prevent those vague, distasteful smells that homes can have emanating from unsealed crawl spaces.
Create a dry, clean, renewed climate. Encapsulation keeps your crawl space environment clean. Without the moisture or heat, mold and microbes cannot thrive and the rest of your home will reap the benefits.
Preserve your home’s structural integrity. The ground below most homes contains large amounts of moisture. This moisture can enter an exposed crawl space as water vapor and, in some cases, may even become puddled water. That moisture combined with the dark and dank conditions of a crawl space creates a destructive environment where mold thrives and spreads at an alarming rate across any organic material. Aside from the fact that moist wood is like a dessert tray to termites, rot and decay can set in eventually destroy the structural integrity of your home.

Customer Reviews

Excellent Experience From Start To Finish

Excellent experience from start to finish. The owner came out to quote the work and to do an assessment. He took his time to explain everything in detail to me of the benefits of the different levels of encapsulation. He made his recommendation based off of my home and not just the highest price service. Upfront, honest, and great follow through. Cannot ask for much more. Also price was comparable to other quotes but the quality of work was FAR BETTER when I looked at photos of other folks and they have a custom process that no one else uses to also vent under the plastic!

My Builder Was So Impressed

I was having some moisture issues in my basement. I had three companies come out before Jason. They all wanted to do the same thing which was dig up all the yard around my house and re-apply a new membrane. I would have sold my house and moved away before I paid what they were asking.
Anyhow, Jason came in and gave a thorough explanation of what his plan was, why the older methods only work short term, and how he completely guarantees all of his work. It wasn't cheap but it was small potatoes compared to what the other folks wanted to do.
Additionally, my builder was so impressed with what Jason and his team had done they wanted a bunch of business cards for other clients.

Very Professional & Responsive

Very professional and responsive. They coordinated everything, including city permit inspection and electrician. They cleaned up everything and were great at explaining what needed to be done and then what was done. Great to see there's still some excellent, reputable local businesses out there who provide exceptional service.

Pleased With The Results

We utilized Crawl space and basement tech to encapsulate our new home before any damage could be done. They were not only competitively priced, but very knowledgeable and professional. We used the other guys in our last home and we now know what is truly expected and are pleased with the results.

Thank You

We have had dampness in our crawl space for years. We had done the typical thing by applying plastic initially on our own & had some help from another company, but it never seemed right. Our neighbor had used Crawlspace & Basement Technologies & was so pleased with the results.
Jason Mullins, the owner, came to our home, assessed our space & gave his recommendations. He was very personable but informative & thorough with his explanations. We felt confident choosing him & did not seek a second opinion.
Everyone involved with getting the job done, from the office to the guys doing the work were great.
My husband & I thank you!

Becky M.

So Impressed!

Jason drew me pictures, showed me diagrams and provided a thorough explanation and education about what needed to be done and how he would recommend doing it.

I was so impressed with him and the company's services that I hired him on the spot and canceled my other appointment. They began work almost immediately, and everyone with whom I came into contact was efficient and friendly and clearly wanted me to be happy with the results.

It's a great feeling to do business with a company that takes such pride in its work and believes in giving value to customers.

One of the Best

"Your company was one of the only ones in the Triangle who was able to tell me how the job would be done that would meet NC Building codes and what the current industry methods/materials are. I did a lot of research..I know what I am talking about and would recommend Jason’s company to anyone needing encapsulation"

Keeps Things Clean

"Your company is very professional. Most companies do not clean up after themselves, so the homeowner has to do it! Your guys left the area very clean. Don’t let your sales rep go. He is very knowledgeable! Great Job! We have given your information to our neighbors, so I am sure we will be seeing you next door very soon"
