We recommend that all homes with a crawlspace be evaluated to determine if crawlspace encapsulation is needed.
Many homes in the Midlothian, Virginia area would benefit from crawlspace encapsulation. Even if your home’s crawlspace only gets damp part of the year, that is a problem. The extra humidity is a draw to pests and allows mold to colonize. In addition, your HVAC system has to work harder to reduce the humidity inside your home, resulting in higher utility bills and a shorter lifespan of the system. If the insulation has been damaged, both heating and cooling costs are elevated.
At Nixon Cleaning and Restoration LLC, we recommend that all homes be evaluated to determine if crawlspace encapsulation is needed. You can count on our integrity to accurately advise you whether or not you can enjoy benefits from this project.

Common Questions About Crawlspace Encapsulation
Crawlspace encapsulation is a process designed to protect and improve the condition of a crawlspace. We offer this service, and we’ve answered a few common questions about encapsulating your crawlspace below.
What is crawlspace encapsulation?
Crawlspace encapsulation involves sealing off the crawlspace to prevent moisture, pests, and air from entering. This usually includes installing a vapor barrier on the floor and walls, sealing vents, and sometimes adding insulation and a dehumidifier.
Why is crawlspace encapsulation important?
Encapsulating a crawlspace helps prevent moisture problems, which can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage. It also improves indoor air quality by reducing humidity and preventing the entry of pests and allergens.
How do I know if I should encapsulate my crawlspace?
We recommend encapsulating your crawlspace if you experience persistent musty odors in your home or if there is visible mold or mildew growth in your crawlspace. You should also consider encapsulation if there is excessive humidity in this space or you have sagging or uneven floors.
