The questions we hear most about crawl space work.
Most residential crawl spaces are workable with the right training, even at 18 to 24 inches of clearance.
Encapsulation addresses the moisture source directly, which is usually what causes crawl space mold to return after a basic treatment.
If previous work only treated visible growth without addressing vapor barrier gaps or drainage, the moisture source was never actually fixed.
That musty smell upstairs is a common sign the crawl space is contributing to indoor air quality problems.
A standard treatment typically takes one day; full encapsulation can take two to three days depending on square footage.
