Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation in Baltimore, MD
Need to clean your crawl space? Baltimore experiences a lot of rain throughout the year, resulting in a very soggy environment that can start to deteriorate structures in your crawl space. Winters are short, cold, and wet, while summers are hot and humid. During the summer, your crawl space must be protected from water damage, mold growth, and excess humidity.
Homeowners in Baltimore should look into crawl space encapsulation to protect their homes from water damage and deterioration.
Our innovative solutions – such as a crawl space dehumidifier or sump pump – effectively remove water once inside your crawl space, while crawl space encapsulation permanently seals your crawl space from water and other external elements. Crawl space insulation adds an extra protective layer against the elements. JES Foundation Repair specializes in these crawl space repairs and encapsulation solutions, and we have the expertise to protect your crawl space from water permanently.
The JES Process
Crawl Space Problem Signs in Baltimore
While we do not recommend you venture into your crawl space to investigate it, homeowners should be aware of signs of something wrong. Because of the wet climate, your crawl space area may have been damaged by water, leading to additional problems like mold, pest infestations, and humidity buildup. Recognizing these signs of damage to your crawl space means you don’t have to worry about more damage happening down the line. Crawl space damage can put the structural security of your home’s foundation at risk, making your home a very unpleasant and unsafe environment.
Causes of Crawl Space Damage in Baltimore
Many crawl space issues in Baltimore are caused by the peculiar, well-drained, but deep soils in the area, which allow water pressure to build up and begin to press against your crawl space. Your crawl space will be wet due to the leakage. In addition to this, an inefficient vapor barrier, which can be broken down over time, is more of a long-term maintenance issue that happens slowly. The foundation of your crawl space may shift because of soil shifting or water intrusion. Open crawl space vents are another major culprit that risks your crawl space and home.

Great follow up – the first lift didn't achieve the results I wanted. So Megan from JES contacted me and she had her staff perform a second lift. No more water pooling on our patio. She did a great job setting expectations and help get me the results I wanted.

Chad Freitag did an expert examination of our foundation issues and suggested needed repairs. He took time to show us pictures taken in the crawlspace of the areas needing repair to level the floors on the ground level. Thorough and professional.

Chris at JES is the best! I inherited a system installed by JES and he took the time to explain everything to me in a way I can understand. He came out for a routine maintenance visit and explained what to look out for and gave me solid recommendations for future considerations. Thank you!

I had JES encapsulate the crawlspace under my house. Roosevelt, Omari, and Sean did a great job with the installation. They were very thorough about their work and did a great job cleaning up when everything was complete. They especially did a great job on the custom door leading into the basement/crawlspace area of my home. It now feels like there is a true barrier between the outside of my home and the basement/crawlspace.

Larry and the rest of the JES crew, Antoin, Desean and Brandon were Great! They made sure to keep me informed all along the way. they were wonderful to deal with! The plumber, a sub contractor, was not at the same level as the entire JES tram. I would highly recommend the JES team.

I had a fantastic experience with Jeff from JES Foundation Repair. I was worried about separation in my baseboards and door trims, but Jeff was incredibly thorough during his inspection. He took the time to take measurements and photos, ultimately putting my mind at ease by explaining that it was just natural settling for an 8-year-old home. He didn't try to oversell me or use fear tactics. It's rare to find that level of honesty–I'd recommend him to anyone!

JES was very professional from the initial inspection to the crew that installed my crawlspace encapsulation. Antione was my foreman, he was very clear and polite when communicating the schedule and what to expect. The crew arrived on time each day and worked diligently. They even went even the extra mile with a couple changes to the original plan. I am very happy with the results and definitely recommend JES and Antione for crawlspace repairs.

John, Jessie and Ben did a superior job replacing the drain tiles and sump pump in my basement They also encapsulated my crawl space. John was the leader of the crew and delegated tasks to his team in a very effective manner. All three were among the hardest working men I have ever experienced at my house. My basement water worries are over and I am so glad I went with JES. Not the cheapest but well worth the money for a superior job! Halsey Langdon

My experience with JES was very pleasant. The Foreman Desmond K., and crew James M., Eric T., and Shane C. showed professionalism at all time. They are courteous with some spunk to their work style. They started the work on time, they clean up even while working and they completed the job in one. I am very happy I hired JES and blessed with an Angel crew.

Our technician (Chris Phillips) has been excellent to work with. He came out for our annual inspection, took the time to address my questions and concerns, and came back a few days later to install a new dehumidifier due to an issue with the older one. Chris' attention to detail, courteous and patient manor, and knowledge of the business and systems is top notch! He has promptly returned texts and phone calls and offered to address any additional concerns as they may arise. His colleague Jacob Redman who assisted on the install was also very professional and knowledgeable. We've had great service and look forward to continue to work with Chris and the JES team!
