Crawl Space Moisture Barriers for Florida Homeowners


If you're a homeowner in the Tampa area, your home's crawl space is susceptible to moisture, mold, and rot due to the high humidity in our area. Much of the air you breathe in your home comes out of the crawl space. If your crawl space is damp, mold growth can occur, and the moisture can lead to the decay of your wood floors and even the structural integrity of your home. To stave off moisture and prevent structural damage from occurring, crawl space moisture barriers can be installed to help prevent water vapor from seeping into your crawl space. Professionally installing crawl space moisture and vapor barriers in your Tampa home helps waterproof your investment's most important structure, the foundation.

Our experienced and friendly Tampa crawl space moisture and vapor barrier technicians can install the durable CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier system in less than a day to protect your crawl space from humidity and moisture. Made from multiple layers of polyethylene material with a mold-resistant additive, the CleanSpace® moisture barrier is cost-effective and compatible with other protective products, like sump pumps, perimeter drain systems, and more. Before installing a crawl space moisture and vapor barrier in your Tampa home, we'll look for signs of water damage or structural damage and then seal the crawl space vents so humid air can't become trapped under the liner once it's installed. The CleanSpace® vapor barrier can then be installed in your crawl space.

Crawl space moisture barrier installation

In as little as one day, your home could be protected from humidity, mold, pests, flooding, and odors! The CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier can be installed in less than a day. During the installation process, your crawl space contractor will first inspect your crawl space for any water or structural damage before the moisture barrier is installed. Then, your contractor will seal any crawl space vents to prevent humid air from entering and becoming trapped under the liner. Finally, your contractor will line the foundation walls and floor with the CleanSpace® poly to create a continuous air and moisture barrier.

Before and After Installing Moisture Barrier

Moisture that enters the crawl space through vents and soil can ruin insulation and also encourage mold growth and wood rot.
