Encapsulation typically involves some type of drainage system, insulation, sealing of the walls and floors, and an air purification system.Like a home, each crawl space is unique. A trained professional will assess the specifics needed to protect your home.
Encapsulation is just the term used to seal the crawl space and circulate conditioned air throughout your home. Without a complete encapsulation system, like drainage and a vapor barrier, you would be spending money and not experiencing the full benefits of the repair.
