Why Crawl Space Waterproofing Matters

Your crawl space may be out of sight, but it shouldn’t be out of mind. If left unprotected, this space can become a magnet for water damage, mold, pests, and wood rot. All of these issues threaten your home’s foundation and your family’s health. Water and moisture in your crawl space can lead to:
  • Rotting floor joists and support beams
  • Pest infestations—termites, rodents, spiders, and more
  • Dangerous mold and mildew growth
  • Higher energy bills and poor HVAC efficiency
  • Musty odors rising into living spaces
With the right crawl space drainage system, vapor barrier, and sump pump, you can permanently eliminate these threats.

Our Crawl Space Encapsulation & Waterproofing Solutions

At A&M Waterproofing & Foundation Repair, we take a comprehensive approach to sealing and protecting your crawl space. Our systems use SafeBasements™ components to ensure long-term durability and performance.

Crawl Space Encapsulation

Encapsulation is the process of sealing off the crawl space from outside air, moisture, and pests using advanced materials and techniques.

Our encapsulation system includes:

  • Vapor barriers on walls and floors
  • Seamless floor liners for full coverage
  • Sealed vents and access points
  • Optional dehumidifier installation for moisture control

Crawl Space Waterproofing System

Waterproofing is the first line of defense against flooding and standing water. Our crawl space waterproofing system includes:

  • A custom-installed crawl space drainage system
  • Interior perimeter drains or crawl space French drains
  • A high-efficiency crawl space sump pump
  • Optional backup battery systems
This system collects and redirects water away from your foundation, keeping your crawl space dry—no matter how much it rains.

Crawl Space Dehumidification

Once your crawl space is sealed and drained, we’ll address lingering humidity with a crawl space dehumidifier. This helps prevent mold, mildew, and airborne contaminants from spreading into your home.

Benefits of dehumidification include:

  • Better indoor air quality
  • Mold and mildew prevention
  • Improved HVAC efficiency
  • Peace of mind during humid summer months
