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.

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.

I’m really happy with the work and conduct of the JES team. I hired them to install 6 pilings to stabilize a garage I had built 4 years ago. They arrived on time, and sent me a text on both mornings when they arrived. The crew was led by Santos Cruz, who was pleasant to speak with and was knowledgeable about the work being done. He answered all of my questions before and during the process. His team consisted of David Allerdings, Lucas Batista, and Joseph Wooten. All of the guys were very tolerant of my two Dogs who occasionally were sniffing and barking around the job site. Even though several of the holes were 5+ feet deep, they did a great job keeping them close to the building in an attempt to not dig up more than needed. The finished job looked very good, and except for the loss of grass, looked almost untouched. Additionally they buried a downspout pipe that had been previously laid on top of the ground which was a nice touch to finish off the job.

A lot of companies do good work, JES certainly does. That's not what earned this 5 star review though. When unforeseen issues came up on our job they stepped up and got it done right! They've earned my trust and will be the first company I call if I ever need their services again, but not on my current property because they did such a great job they won't ever have to come back! Thanks JES, you guys were great!

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!

Excellent! The Team arrived in a timely manner. Shared with me the process they would use to complete the work assignment. Mike Baines, Joel Grade and Austin Brown very professional in their approach and answering questions. Execution of skills to perform the work was seamless. Cleaned up the areas of debris and left the work areas tidy. Also Joe York was expeditious in getting this accomplished. He was thorough in survey of property, very helpful with suggestions and the catalyst to having an excellent experience. I would use JES again and recommend company to family and friends.
