Job completed for Crawl Space Lined in Genoa, WV

Our crew removed the existing liner and replaced it with our preferred liner, then sealed it with 1 inch of closed-cell foam applied by our insulation division. The continuous seal keeps ground moisture out of the crawl space, which helps prevent mold, mildew and other moisture problems, and keeps heated and cooled air from escaping the house.

How moisture gets into Genoa-area crawl spaces

Genoa lies in the river valleys of western West Virginia, where humid air settles into low ground and summer moisture levels run high. Fiberglass batts hold moisture, and once they are damp they sag, lose most of their insulating value and give mold something to grow on. Because of the stack effect, air from the crawl space is pulled up into the living area, so a musty crawl space becomes a musty house. A sealed crawl space also protects the ducts, plumbing and wiring that run through it from condensation and corrosion.
