Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation and Moisture Control in Poway, CA
A homeowner in Poway, CA needed a solution to improve the condition of the crawl space beneath their home. The exposed dirt floor left the area vulnerable to ground moisture and the damp conditions that can develop beneath a house. Saber Foundation & Concrete Repair completed a crawl space encapsulation project designed to create a cleaner, more controlled environment below the home. The project included covering the exposed ground and addressing areas along the crawl space perimeter as part of the moisture-control system. These photos show the crawl space before work began, during installation, and after the encapsulation system was installed.
