Crawl Space Repair Solutions

At Xalos Foundation Support, we understand the importance of maintaining a dry, stable crawl space to keep your San Francisco Bay Area home healthy. Crawl space issues often stem from excess moisture, pests, and poor ventilation, which can lead to structural damage and poor indoor air quality. Fortunately, we offer various solutions to manage these problems and protect your foundation.

 

Elements of Crawl Space Encapsulation

Crawl space encapsulation is one of the most effective methods to tackle moisture and humidity issues. This process involves sealing the crawl space to prevent water and pests from entering and to maintain a healthy environment beneath your home. Key elements of encapsulation include:
radon system

Perimeter Drain Systems: These systems include the installation of perforated pipes around the crawl space’s perimeter to collect and redirect water away from the foundation, reducing moisture build-up.

Bullet Point

Sump Pumps: A sump pump is installed in the lowest part of the crawl space to pump out excess water. This helps prevent flooding and keeps the crawl space dry.

Bullet Point

Vapor & Radon Barriers: These barriers are placed on the dirt floor of the crawl space to prevent moisture from seeping into the air or to block radon gas infiltration. This is crucial for maintaining air quality and reducing health risks.

Bullet Point

Radon Ventilation Systems: Radon is a dangerous gas that can accumulate in crawl spaces. Radon ventilation systems are designed to keep the air flowing and prevent radon from building up in your home.

Bullet Point

Dehumidification: Installing a dehumidifier helps regulate the humidity levels in the crawl space, further preventing mold growth and wood rot while maintaining a healthier environment.
