Are you seeing signs of foundation problems around your home?
Moisture in your crawl space creates the perfect conditions for unhygienic issues. Left alone, these can affect your indoor air quality and could lead to health hazards including:
ALLERGENS AND MOLD
Mold in your unsealed crawl space can transmit into your living space potentially reducing indoor air quality.
INDOOR HUMIDITY
Humidity from your crawl space can damage valuable possessions in your home.
RODENTS AND INSECT INFESTATION
Unprotected crawl spaces are perfect homes for pests.
WOOD ROT
Crawl space moisture can lead to wood decay and other structural problems.

“Thank you Epp Concrete! Corey and his coworker with him were absolutely amazing. Completed work on time. Cleaned up after themselves. Especially had great customer service. They were very professional. Very nice. Answered all my questions in a manner I could understand. Made sure I understood every process in the repair and what to do after work done. Ryan and everyone that came with him who did my quote were also awesome. Would highly recommend!”

OUR CRAWL SPACE ENCAPSULATION
AND WATERPROOFING SERVICES
The Epp Foundation Repair crawl space encapsulation system is designed to isolate your living space from the humid crawl space environment. We offer the following services to keep your crawl space clean, dry, as well as to create usable storage space.
Crawl Space Vapor Barrier
Crawl space vapor barriers (or moisture barriers) prevent soil moisture from getting into your home through floors and holes in ductwork.
Crawl Space Dehumidifier and Sump Pump
An added layer to actively remove air moisture, condense it into water and then pump it out of your basement.
Crawl Space Drainage
Our crawl space drain tile system consists of buried piping around the perimeter of your crawl space that directs water downslope away from the house or into a sump pit.

Crawl Space Encapsulation FAQs
How much does crawl space encapsulation cost?
A typical crawl space encapsulation job costs around $5000+. It usually runs around $7-9 per square foot.
How long does the crawl space encapsulation process take?
We can typically get a normal crawl space encapsulation job done in 2-3 days depending on the size of job. If drain-tile is needed or any other structural fixes are needed then it can add time, but it doesn’t usually take more than a week even for a large project.
How long does crawl space encapsulation last?
We offer a 25 year warranty on our crawl space encapsulation when installed in conjunction with a drainage system, and a 1 year Limited Warranty that covers against defects in materials & workmanship, when installed without a drainage system. Realistically, encapsulation should last a lifetime.
What should crawl space humidity be after encapsulation?
Typical humidity in a crawl space before we start is around 50% or higher. After we complete the crawl space encapsulation it typically drops well below 20%.
Does crawl space encapsulation provide energy savings?
Yes. The vapor barrier reduces the amount of air transfer between your crawl space and living space so your heating and cooling system doesn’t have to work as hard.
