Does crawl space encapsulation add value to your home?

Updating, adding on, and repairing things around your home is the best, and quickest, way for homeowners to add the value of the home. When people are trying to sell homes, they often put themselves in the place of the buyer, to get their home off the market as quickly as possible. In today’s age, most home buyers want to get into a home is not going to need any serious repairs or tender loving care because they are already investing a lot of money to buy a home in the first place. Most studies say that moving is one of the most stressful things that you can do in your lifetime, so of course adding home repairs on top of that is extremely frustrating and hard to deal with. So, if you are going to sell your home, before you put it on the market, you should make sure to fix certain things around your home. Starting with the crawl space is one area of the home that is not thought about, but is really important to deal with. One of the best upgrades that you can have done to your crawl space is to have it encapsulated. What is crawl space encapsulation? When you have your crawl space encapsulated, then you have the area enclosed in an envelope where no air or water can come in or out of the crawl space. 

​To start the encapsulation process, you are going to want to make sure that you have a team of professionals handling the repair for you. DIY, while it can be really fun and fulfilling if you are doing a little home improvement around your home, is not a good idea to deal with serious repairs around your home. When you don’t have the proper training to deal with something like the plumbing of your home, then you shouldn’t touch it, because you could do more damage to your home than anything good to it. So, when you start your crawl space encapsulation, you want to make sure that you go directly to the repair experts in your area to take care of it. Once that team is on site, then they are going to go down to your crawl space and remove any water that is in the area. All standing water is removed by a vacuum. After the standing water is removed, the water vapor that is in the air needs to be removed. This is usually removed with a dehumidifying unit, that takes out all of the water out of the air. Only after all of the different kinds of water is removed from the crawl space of your home, can the vapor barrier be installed on the ground of your crawl space. The vapor barrier is a sheet of plastic that is vacuum sealed to the ground of the crawl space to keep any ground water from coming up into the crawl space and causing water damage. Keeping water out of the crawl space is the entire point of having your crawl space encapsulated, so having a vapor barrier installed is step one in dealing with the problem of water. After the vapor barrier is installed, then the next step is to seal off any air areas that could allow water or air to come through to the crawl space. After there isn’t any way for air to get through your crawl space, then the opening of the crawl space itself is closed off. This means that there will be no way for you to go in or out of your crawl space without ruining the envelope that you crawl space is in. So, when you encapsulate your crawl space, then you can’t use it as an extra storage space any longer.
