Crawl Space Encapsulation in Hammonds Plains, NS
Wooded lots and newer estates in Hammonds Plains hide damp crawl spaces. We seal and insulate them.
We encapsulate crawl spaces for Hammonds Plains homes, from the large wooded lots along Pockwock Road to the Kingswood and Voyageur Lakes subdivisions. Big lots and heavy tree cover keep the ground damp, and that moisture ends up under the house unless the crawl space is sealed.
Hammonds Plains has grown into a lot of newer estates on big, wooded lots. All that shade and tree cover keeps the ground from drying out, and homes on crawl spaces feel it as damp framing and cold floors. Newer doesn't mean sealed, plenty of these crawl spaces are bare and vented.
We seal them off properly, insulate the walls and rim joists, and add humidity control. On a large wooded lot in Hammonds Plains, encapsulation is what keeps the crawl space from being the dampest part of an otherwise dry, modern home.
