We start by pumping out any standing water, then move straight into liner installation and humidity control.
Swayzee, IN crawl spaces vary a lot in how they were originally built, and a liner that's correct for one home can be undersized for another depending on foot traffic and storage use. We size thickness to how the space is actually used.
Every crew member is trained specifically on liner installation, seam sealing, and vent encapsulation, not general basement work.
Swayzee, IN crawl space calls get scheduled fast, especially when there's standing water or an active mold smell involved.
Pricing is based on your crawl space's actual square footage and condition, quoted in writing before liner installation begins.
A dedicated crawl space dehumidifier is sized to your square footage, not a one-size-fits-all unit.
We scope every Crawl Space Encapsulation job in person before quoting it, since two properties with the same symptom rarely need the same fix.
Extraction equipment includes submersible pumps sized for tight crawl space access points.
We install heavy-duty liner rated for crawl space conditions, sealed at every seam and pier to stop ground moisture from reaching the floor joists.
Sealed vents are paired with mechanical dehumidification so the space doesn't just trap humidity instead of venting it.
We route discharge lines well away from the foundation so pumped water doesn't just cycle back in.
We also check subfloor insulation for water damage and replace anything compromised before closing the liner.
We ask about standing water, musty odor, and vent condition to gauge scope before scheduling the inspection.
We take humidity and moisture readings to establish a baseline before recommending a system.
We explain trade-offs between liner thickness options so you can choose what fits your budget and goals.
Most residential encapsulations finish in one to two days depending on square footage and access.
"Our crawl space had standing water and a mold smell we couldn't get rid of no matter what we tried. Full encapsulation with a dehumidifier fixed it in one visit."
— Swayzee Homeowner
"Wood floors upstairs were starting to cup from crawl space humidity. Encapsulation plus a dehumidifier stopped it before we had to replace flooring."
— Swayzee Customer
"They caught duct condensation we didn't even know was happening down there. Sealed everything up during the same visit."
— Swayzee Homeowner
"Humidity reading before was over 80%. After encapsulation it's holding steady in the 50s."
— Swayzee Customer
We can scope either option depending on your budget and how severe the existing moisture problem is.
Most residential spaces do well with a 12-15 mil liner; spaces used for storage or with foot traffic often need 20 mil for durability.
Some jurisdictions have code requirements around vent sealing, which we'll flag during the inspection if relevant.
Often yes, if the crawl space is the source — sealing and dehumidifying typically resolves musty odors within a few days of installation.
Yes — we extract existing water first, then proceed with liner and vent sealing once the space is dry enough to work safely.
Spaces with extensive prior water damage or debris may take longer — we'll give you a realistic estimate up front.
