Crawl space services

How often you need to replace your crawl space vapor barrier depends on several factors, including the condition of your crawl space and weather damage. Most vapor barriers can last 10-20 years. Seeing issues like cracks, water pooling, or significant wear and tear may be a good indicator that you need to replace your crawl space moisture barrier.

The cost of a crawl space vapor barrier depends on several factors, such as the location and size of your home. During your inspection, our technicians will give you an estimate for the cost of vapor barriers for your home.  

While it is possible to DIY crawl space vapor barriers, it may not be the best solution. Our experts are trained to ensure that the vapor barrier is installed correctly and efficiently, helping provide maximum protection against moisture and its potentially damaging effects. In addition, improperly installed crawl space moisture barriers can lead to moisture build-up, mold growth, and even structural damage over time. If not done correctly, taking the DIY approach can be more expensive in the long run.
