Moisture Control at the Source
Encapsulation seals the dirt floor and foundation walls with a heavy-duty liner to help stop ground moisture from entering the crawl space.
Don't neglect your crawl space
Flood Busters specializes in crawl space encapsulation: installing a heavy-duty specialized plastic liner that seals the dirt floor and foundation walls to help eliminate penetrating moisture.
We also seal crawl space vents to reduce outside humidity entering the space, and we can recommend self-draining dehumidifiers with adjustable humidity settings for a healthier, more usable crawl space.

Excess moisture can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage in floor systems and supports.
Air from a damp crawl space can move into the living area, carrying humidity, odours, and poor air quality with it.
Uncontrolled crawl spaces can make floors colder, insulation less effective, and heating or cooling systems work harder.
How crawl space encapsulation works
We assess the crawl space for standing water, humidity, vents, dirt floors, damaged materials, and structural concerns.
Some crawl spaces need water control before encapsulation. We design the system around your space instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all fix.
We install a heavy-duty liner, seal the floor, walls, and vents, and can add a self-draining dehumidifier with adjustable humidity control.
