Is Your Crawl Space Ready for Winter?

Moisture in unwanted places on your property can be very harmful. During winters, it is essential to ensure every part of your home is moisture-proof. Starting from snow to rain to ice melts, moisture and dampness during winter are inevitable if the crawl space or basement of your home is not insulated.
Old homes come with built-in vents and crawl space access doors which need to be sealed to keep dampness away. This is when Reeds Waterproofing & Foundation Solutions can help. We provide all forms of crawl space restoration so that you can enjoy a comfortable winter. Some of our popular crawl space solutions include crawl space insulation, waterproofing, and dehumidification.

Reed’s 4 Steps to Prepare Crawl Spaces for Winter

• Waterproofing- Making sure rainwater or groundwater is not entering your crawl space is the first step. We make sure cracks in the foundation are fixed and install a sump pump to direct water away from the space.
• Encapsulation- We cover the entire crawl space with foamed vapor barriers in this step. Encapsulating your crawl space is a wise step as it keeps the roof of the crawl space warm which in turn keeps the floor above warm as well. In this way, you will be using your heater way less which will decrease your energy bills significantly.
• Sealing air vents and access doors- Our team seals off the vents or any access door you might have with the same foamed material.
• Installing dehumidifier- Lastly, we install a state-of-the-art dehumidification system to regulate the moisture level.
