Crawl Space Moisture Control

Serving Atlanta Metro | Columbus | Augusta | Savannah

Excess moisture is one of the most common causes of pest infestations in the home, and many such infestations begin in the crawl space. Not only that, up to 50% of the air in your household flows upwards from the crawl space, and if the area is damp, it can reduce the overall quality of the air you and your family are breathing. For these reasons and more, keeping your crawl spaces free from moisture problems is crucial for the health and safety of your home. Active Pest Control is proud to provide a wide range of crawl space moisture control services to keep our customers safe from pest problems that stem from moisture issues.

Your home or business can be exposed to moisture problems quicker than you’d think. A leak in your plumbing, clogged drains, broken gutters, and even excess water spilled in your kitchen can all contribute to long-term moisture problems and, in turn, pest problems. From crawl space encapsulation to vapor barriers and power vents, we have a variety of tools for crawl space moisture control services. Call us today to schedule.

Benefits of Crawl Space Moisture Barriers

Excess moisture in a home or business doesn’t just lead to an uncomfortable living environment—it also can attract unwanted pests like roaches and rodents to your property. This is because many pests thrive in humid, moist environments. Needless to say, it’s imperative to look into installed crawl space moisture barriers. 

Four of the main benefits of crawl space pest control services include:

• Improved air quality throughout the entire home, making for a more comfortable living environment
• Reduced risk of fungi or mold problems that contribute to structural damage
• Improved energy efficiency in the property
• Creation of an inhospitable environment for pests, specifically wood-destroying insects such as termites

What is Crawl Space Encapsulation?

Crawl Space Encapsulation is a solution designed to tackle moisture issues beneath your home. By sealing off the crawl space, we create a barrier that prevents excess moisture from entering, effectively controlling humidity levels. Compared to a crawl space moisture barrier, encapsulation is a much more comprehensive solution that will ensure a dry and protected environment for years to come.

What are the Benefits of Crawl Space Encapsulation?

• Moisture Control: Eliminates excess moisture, preventing issues like mold and rot.
• Improved Air Quality: Enhances the overall air quality in your home by preventing mold spores and allergens.
• Energy Efficiency: Helps in maintaining consistent temperatures, leading to energy savings.
• Structural Integrity: Preserves the structural integrity of your home by preventing wood rot and decay.
• Pest Prevention: Acts as a barrier against pests, reducing the risk of infestations.
• Healthier Living Environment: Creates a healthier living space by mitigating potential health risks associated with damp environments.
