Grand Junction Crawl Space Repair
ake a walk around your home; now, look down at the foundation. If you notice open vents or a loose crawl space door, you most likely have a moisture problem. Open vents or a crawl space that is not sealed creates high humidity problems and allows rodents and pests to enter freely. If you notice a musty smell inside your home, it’s most likely coming from the crawl space.
At one time, it was believed that Grand Junction crawl spaces should have open vents to allow air to circulate throughout the space. We now know open vents cause more problems by allowing moisture in and creating the perfect breeding ground for mold and pests. Pests love the dark, damp environment, and rodents can create a mess by chewing insulation and wires, not to mention their droppings causing health problems.
If this sounds familiar at your home, crawl space encapsulation and repair from Groundworks Grand Junction is the answer. Our team of inspectors and technicians work with you to create a customized plan to address crawl space issues by taking into consideration the area’s bentonite soil and unique climate.

What Causes Crawl Space Repair Problems?
Your Grand Junction crawl space is most likely out of sight, out of mind. However, even though you aren’t spending a lot of time there, the air inside the crawl space is finding its way into your living space, thanks to the stack effect.
The stack effect explains how air is pulled from the lowest level of your home (the crawlspace) up through your living spaces until it escapes out the roof, and new air is sucked from the outside to replace it. Even with the best-insulated roof, 50 percent of the air you breathe comes from the crawl space.
As you can see, a clean crawl space is more important than your home’s structural integrity alone; it’s also integral to your family’s health.
Although the Grand Junction area receives significantly less rain or snow than the national average, moisture in the air is still problematic for crawl spaces. High humidity and condensation can cause mold, mildew, and can even lead to wood rot. Dark, humid areas attract insects that leave droppings. If your crawl space is not sealed, your family ends up breathing in mold and pest droppings.
Groundworks Grand Junction has been working with homeowners like you since 2005 and understands the need to address crawl space moisture problems quickly. By insulating and waterproofing the crawl space, water and pests are sealed out, creating a cleaner, healthier home. Contact the local experts at Groundworks Grand Junction to learn how they can help with your crawl space.
Common Causes of Crawl Space Problems
Our Patented Crawl Space Repair Solutions
If you’re experiencing elevated humidity, sagging floors, or high energy bills, the problem may actually be coming from your crawl space. Your local Groundworks Grand Junction expert can determine the cause, and if it crawl space-related, suggest a variety of proven solutions for your home. Explore some of the cutting-edge solutions below.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Crawl space encapsulation is the term used when your untreated crawl space is converted into a clean, dry, usable space. Although encapsulation usually involves a vapor barrier, any additional pieces are specific to your home’s needs. In many cases, a crawl space drain and a sump pump are installed to pump groundwater out and away. A crawl space dehumidifier may also be needed to ensure that humidity levels are reasonable.
Sealing the crawl space through the encapsulation system allows the space to become part of the envelope of the home. Meaning any air that passes through is clean and conditioned. Creating an all-around healthier living environment and protecting your home’s structural integrity from any damaging wood rot.
Crawl Space Vent Covers
Although many crawl spaces have vents, as we discussed, they cause more problems than good. Vent covers seal troublesome vents by using a 20-mil-thick vapor barrier that fits perfectly over the opening. In addition to preventing moisture and air from escaping, they also offer a measure of insulation, keeping energy bills down and creating a more comfortable environment.
Crawl Space Insulation
You may be familiar with the pink insulation used in crawl spaces by builders, this type of insulation invites problems into your crawl space. Pink insulation absorbs moisture easily, growing heavy and sagging or falling to the ground. This damp organic material is perfect for mold and mildew growth, causing a musty smell throughout your home.
Groundworks Grand Junction offers a rigid foam board insulation called ExtremeBloc™. With an incredible R-value of 11, it helps create an energy-efficient network in your crawl space that then expands into the rest of your home. You’ll experience lower electric bills, fewer water problems, and better indoor air quality.

Blake Weaver, Tristin Hurt and Chance Ener were on time, courteous, and knowledgeable. They even took the time to answer my many questions and cleaned up after themselves once the job was done. Which, by-the-way, they completed a day early. I highly recommend them.

Damon T came up with a convincing sales pitch, and we were impressed by the thoroughness of the plan. We ended up declining one small portion of Damon's original plan – after consultation with Tash and his team during the installation process. The company took the full price off our bill. The crew of Tash, Justin, Maurice, and Drew were highly professional in their 2-day stint at our house waterproofing the basement. Very pleased with how they answered our questions. The team had a disagreement with another part of the original sales plan, but their plan ended with a much better solution for our basement. The original plan had the bottom of our carpeted stairs to be torn up, but crew leader Tash had a much less destructive action plan. We are very impressed by the way they tunneled the drains from room to room with little or no extra destruction. The team also worked very hard both days, taking very few breaks and maximizing their time here.Our only suggestion would be for the original salesperson to have either face to face or telephone discussion with the work team leader prior to the team coming out. What is projected on paper may not always be the easiest plan to carry out. Tash made many good points that led to a better final product from our perspective.All in all, we were pleased with this company's product, from Damon's sales pitch to Tash's team's installation. Great guys all, friendly, professional, and very polite! Thanks for a great experience!

Daniel Soto and the Charlotte DryPro team are the best! I had my entire crawlspace – mold remediated, french drain and a sump pump installed, encapsulation and dehumidifier installed a year ago. I also elected to purchase the 5 year service warrantee, to protect my investment. The Team came out for the annual service inspection, and found a few minor repairs needed following the inspection, and came back out today to repair all the items, put fresh insulation tape around and even wiped down any dirty spots so my "white" encapsulated space looks like new again. thanks Daniel!

My experience with Ohio Basement Authority was excellent from the initial phone call to schedule an inspection to the completion of the work. Jacob, the inspector, did an excellent job of explaining all parts of the process of installing supports on two basement walls. I felt he really made an effort to keep the cost as low as possible. Also excellent was the crew that did the work. The foreman, Tyson, along with Shaun and Josh, worked hard and did an excellent job of cleaning up when finished. Tyson kept me informed throughout the day of the progress they were making. I would recommend Ohio Basement Authority to anyone needing basement/crawlspace work. In the past several months, my husband passed away followed soon after by my dad and then my mom. This work was at my parent's home and this was the first time I have handled such a project on my own. I appreciate how all of you made it.

We used BAU to install piers and screw jacks to level our home. Really pleased with the entire process. The communication was stellar and the foreman made sure we understood each step as it was happening. The whole crew was professional, polite, punctual, and very neat. Each day they left the job site nice and tidy. The overall result is amazing. Our floors are level and the house looks great. Would highly recommend for any foundation/leveling needs.

We had work done to help level our attached garage. Scary for us, we have never had to have work like this done before. Chad and his crew (Jake, James, Martin) exceeded our expectations. The work was done on time (quicker, in fact) and the wokrsite cleaned. Chad took the fear factor out by communicating often during the process. Both with us and the company to make sure all concerns were addressed. We are grateful.
