Excerpt : Crawl space encapsulation helps prevent cold floors, moisture buildup, and heat loss by sealing your home’s foundation. It’s one of the smartest insulation upgrades to make before winter, especially in cold-weather states like New York and New Jersey.
Still getting cold floors no matter how high you turn the heat?
If your home feels drafty this time of year—or if you’ve noticed musty odors, cold floorboards, or rising energy bills—your crawl space might be the problem.
And fall is the perfect time to fix it with professional crawl space encapsulation.
What Is Crawl Space Encapsulation?
Crawl space encapsulation is the process of:
Sealing the ground with a thick vapor barrier
Insulating walls and rim joists with spray foam
Blocking outside air, pests, and moisture from entering
Controlling humidity with dehumidifiers or ventilation
Essentially, it turns your dirty, exposed crawl space into a dry, sealed, and energy-efficient buffer zone between your home and the cold winter ground.
Why Do It Before Winter?
In fall, the temperature drops, moisture rises, and your home starts losing heat fast—especially through an unsealed crawl space.
If You Wait… | If You Encapsulate Now… |
---|---|
Cold floors above crawl spaces | Floors stay warmer and more comfortable |
Drafts & heat loss = higher bills | Insulation keeps warm air inside |
Risk of frozen pipes | Helps prevent pipe freeze by stabilizing temps |
Moisture invites mold and pests | Vapor barrier keeps your crawl space clean and dry |
