Our crawl space had a musty smell for as long as we've owned the house. The team removed the mold that was there and encapsulated the whole space, and they were careful to work around our radon vent pipe the whole time.

When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Lillamay, Marrowbone, Bearwallow and the rest of Ashland City call us.
We handle crawl space encapsulation for Ashland City the right way. We find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then we contain the area and remove the mold safely.

Good to know
Crawl Space Encapsulation in Ashland City, TN: common questions
Do you remove existing mold before encapsulating?
Yes, encapsulating over active mold growth doesn't solve the problem. We remove and treat existing mold first, then install the vapor barrier.
How long does crawl space encapsulation take?
It depends on the size of the crawl space and how much remediation is needed first, but most projects are completed within a few days.
Is my crawl space a good candidate for encapsulation?
Dirt crawl spaces with recurring moisture, musty odors, or visible mold on framing are typically good candidates. We can assess yours during an inspection.
Do I need to leave my Ashland City home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Ashland City home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Will encapsulation affect my radon mitigation system?
No, we coordinate the vapor barrier installation carefully around existing radon vent piping so the system continues working as intended.
Does encapsulation stop mold from coming back?
It significantly reduces the ground moisture that feeds mold growth, which is the main reason crawl spaces develop recurring problems.
Will my insurance cover crawl space encapsulation in Ashland City?
It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. We bill your carrier directly and document the loss so your Ashland City claim moves.
Do you serve Ashland City?
Yes. We cover all of Ashland City, including Lillamay, Marrowbone, Bearwallow, and the rest of the Ashland City area. We are based in Joelton, about 15 minutes from our Joelton base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
