Job completed for Crawl Space Encapsulation in Sandy Hook, KY

Our crew installed a 30-mil liner treated with an antimicrobial finish that protects against mold and mildew growth on the liner. The foundation walls were then insulated with 2 nominal inches of closed-cell foam, creating a continuous seal onto the liner.

Why crawl spaces get damp around Sandy Hook

Wood framing that stays above roughly 20 percent moisture content for long periods can grow mold and, over time, start to decay. Fog and humid mornings are common in the valleys, which keeps outdoor air close to its dew point for much of the summer. Vent openings meant to let a crawl space “breathe” often do the opposite in humid climates, letting in more moisture than they let out. A sealed crawl space also protects the ducts, plumbing and wiring that run through it from condensation and corrosion.
