Our crawlspace service process

1

Free Crawlspace Inspection & Assessment

We start by identifying the specific moisture or cleanup concerns in your Lexington crawlspace. This including checking for mold, damaged insulation, standing water, and failed vapor barriers.

2

Crawlspace Cleanup & Debris Removal

We remove old, wet insulation, contaminated ground covers, construction debris, and anything that contributes to mold growth or poor air quality. If you've had a recent leak or flood, we provide full water damage mitigation services to ensure the subfloor and framing are properly dried before moving forward.

3

Structural Drying & Mold Remediation

If mold is found, we follow IICRC S520 remediation standards to safely clean and treat the wood framing. We use professional structural drying equipment to reduce moisture levels in the subfloor and joists, preventing future wood rot.

4

Vapor Barrier Installation & Encapsulation

We install a high-quality, heavy-duty vapor barrier to seal the crawlspace floor and walls. By properly overlapping and sealing the seams, we block ground moisture from rising into your Lexington home.

5

Final Setup & Environment Control

We complete the process by sealing foundation vents and, when necessary, installing a crawlspace dehumidifier to maintain a safe, dry relative humidity level below 55% year-round.
