    Crawl Space Encapsulation - Know Anyone?

    I'm in the Austin Metroplex and need to get my crawlspace encapsulated. Do any of you on the green screen know anyone that does this service? My home has about 42" on the deepest end and about 30" on the shallowest so it'll be tighter on one end but still doable.

    Need a few more details. What are you encapsulating it from is the no.1 question? Asbestos?

        Ahh. Encapsulated to me means asbestos. I guess he needs to get sealed up to get insurance? Questions?

          The crawl space was originally open to the outside. Humidity, at times, was too high and there was some mold so I had it sprayed and sealed it up. I put a commercial dehumidifier under there with a humidstat but it has to run quite often to keep the humidity at or below 50% so I don't have mold. It's probably costing me $30/month in electricity and I'd like to put that to an end by puting down heavy plastic, sealing it at the seams, piers, and sides. It's basically a lot of tape, mastic, plastic, and crawling around in 3' of space.
