Crawl Space Encapsulation & Repair
Get Rid of Moisture in Your Crawl Space
in the Akron, Canton, Cuyahoga Falls, Stow, Massillon, Barberton, Green OH and surrounding areas
Having a crawl space area under your home can often prove to be more problematic than beneficial. Our company often sees crawl spaces that are wet, have walls that contain mold, interfere with your home’s comfort, contribute to wood rot, decrease indoor air quality, and lay out the welcome mat for pest infestations. A damp crawl space can quickly lead to a variety of crawl space issues if moisture is allowed to remain. Take action — you don't have to live in a house with a crawl space with issues like these!
If you and your family notice a musty smell throughout your home, water or moisture buildup next to your home’s exterior footing, or uneven floors and floor joists on the first level, there could be an issue (or even damage) with your crawl space. That’s how you know it’s time to get in touch with the professionals at Basement Masters LLC for an Akron crawl space inspection and repair solution.

Crawl Space Encapsulation FAQs
What is crawl space encapsulation?
Encapsulation uses a sealed vapor barrier to help limit moisture entering from the ground. Depending on the crawl space, drainage and other moisture-management measures may also be needed. The goal is to address the conditions causing dampness beneath your home.
How do I know if my crawl space needs attention?
Standing water, damp surfaces, and persistent musty odors are reasons to arrange an inspection. Uneven or sagging floors above the crawl space also deserve evaluation. An inspection helps distinguish moisture problems from structural concerns and identify the appropriate next steps.
Will a vapor barrier solve standing water in my crawl space?
A vapor barrier alone is not a complete solution for standing water. The source of the water needs to be addressed, and drainage or a sump pump may be necessary. Basement Masters evaluates crawl-space conditions before recommending the components of a repair or encapsulation project.
Is crawl space encapsulation the same as structural repair?
No. Encapsulation focuses on moisture control; structural repair addresses damaged or inadequate support. Some crawl spaces need both. If you have moisture along with sagging floors or other signs of damage, those concerns should be evaluated together.
