WATERPROOFING
Following thorough excavation, diligent crack repair, and the application of waterproofing materials, our experienced crews install an exterior drain and backfill the area with gravel to ensure optimal results.
WOOD ROT
Wood members inside your crawl space are subject to moisture damage, pest damage, dry rot, and warping. Our certified repair crews are experienced in replacing all components of a floor system, including bandsill, girders, joists, and subfloors.
MOISTURE
Moisture in your crawl space can lead to unexpected problems. It can lead to mold, reduced air quality and can rot your flooring and foundation. The experts at Falcone Crawl Space can remove the excess moisture and resolve the issue before it leads to any more problems.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Crawl space encapsulation is a popular solution for many moisture issues. It effectively addresses humidity and moisture concerns homeowners have. Encapsulation seals the crawl space from the ground, walls, outside air, and water intrusion, preventing damage to your home. This process involves installing a vapor barrier on the ground and walls, sealing all seams, and sealing off foundation vents, blocking moisture and humidity from seeping in.
Encapsulating your crawl space also improves indoor air quality by reducing mold and mildew, while helping you save on energy bills by maintaining optimal temperatures throughout the year.

FAQs
Encapsulation refers to the process of sealing and protecting the crawl space or basement of a home to prevent moisture intrusion and improve indoor air quality.
A plastic vapor barrier belongs under most homes with crawl spaces to keep soil moisture consistent and prevent vapors from rotting your wood floor system.
At Falcone, vapor barrier installations are led by Falcone Certified™ Vapor Barrier Installers. The service includes: removing debris from crawl space, tacking up loose wires/ductwork/insulation and installing a 10-mil poly vapor barrier on the soil throughout your crawl space.
Signs that your home may require encapsulation include musty odors, high humidity levels, condensation on windows, visible mold growth, uneven floors, or increased energy bills.
Waterproofing safeguards your home against water damage, including leaks and seepage. It helps to maintain a dry and healthy living environment while preventing structural deterioration and costly repairs.
