Affordable Crawlspace Sealing for Better Home Health
Encapsulation prevents excess moisture from entering the crawlspace, reducing the risk of mold growth and wood rot that can compromise the foundation.
A sealed crawlspace minimizes air leaks, leading to lower energy bills and improved heating and cooling performance.
Reducing mold and dust mites in the crawlspace contributes to better indoor air quality and healthier living environments.
