Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation in Richmond, VA


If you live in the Richmond metro area, it’s important to consider crawl space encapsulation services provided by JES Foundation Repair. This will help protect your crawl space and foundation from the consistently humid climate in the region. When your crawl space is damp, it becomes a breeding ground for mold and condensation, which can spread throughout your entire home. Don’t wait to address these issues – ensure the health of your home and crawl space by getting them fixed as soon as you notice any problems.

In the Richmond Metro Area, many homes are constructed on sandy soils, and a significant number have vented dirt crawl spaces. These factors can have a negative impact on the overall condition of your home. At JES, we have extensive experience in repairing and sealing damaged crawl spaces, providing effective solutions to address these issues.

Crawl Space Problem Signs in Richmond

When doing a home inspection, it is essential to look for evidence of problems in the crawl space. Mold, high electricity costs, and a buildup of humidity are all evidence that your crawl space has been impacted by water. On top of everything else, a damp crawl space can lead to decaying wood and wet insulating materials in the structure of your crawl space. The repercussions of overlooking obvious signs of deterioration in a crawl space can be costly and hazardous. 

Causes of Crawl Space Damage in Richmond

In the Richmond Metro Area, many homes face crawl space damage primarily due to the presence of sandy soil. This type of soil is prone to washout, leading to sinking or uneven foundations and crawl spaces. It is crucial to maintain a stable foundation, as the soil’s instability can result in dangerous sinkholes. Additionally, the stack effect can draw in unpleasant odors and moisture from the ground. If your crawl space has open vents, it becomes susceptible to water intrusion and pest infestation.

Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation Solutions in Richmond

JES is here to assist you in restoring your crawl space with effective solutions. To combat excessive moisture in your crawl space, we provide two reliable options: vapor barriers and crawl space drainage systems, such as interior drains. As spring brings its fair share of rainfall in Virginia, our crawl space repair services become crucial for maintaining a dry home.

    I felt Dasmine Littlejohn was very courteous and assured me that the problem will be fixed even if it has to be redone. He said to expect a call the next day and it will be taken care of in a timely fashion. Sandra Haney
