Our Home Shield Crawl Space Encapsulation System is built to stop moisture, mold, and wood rot at the source.
We design each system to meet the unique needs of your home, taking into account the local soil and weather conditions in the St. Louis region.
This multi-layer approach controls both liquid water and water vapor, eliminates the conditions mold needs to thrive, and restores structural support where it has weakened.
Instead of temporary fixes, the Home Shield system creates a clean, dry, and energy-efficient space beneath your home.
Our crawl space drainage system is strategically installed along the perimeter to capture groundwater before it seeps into your home. This hidden yet highly effective network channels moisture directly to your sump pump or drainage outlet, keeping your crawl space dry and preventing mold, rot, and foundation damage.
We install high-quality sump pumps in crawl spaces where standing water, rising groundwater, or poor drainage are present. Our pump systems are matched to your home’s needs, include battery backup options, and work seamlessly with our encapsulation setup for complete water management.
Every Home Shield Crawl Space Encapsulation System is backed by our lifetime transferable warranty. That means long-term peace of mind, and if anything goes wrong, we’ll make it right. No surprises. No stress.
A damp, musty crawl space isn’t just uncomfortable. It’s a serious threat to your home’s structural integrity, air quality, and long-term value.
At Home Shield Foundation, we provide expert crawl space repair and encapsulation solutions that stop moisture at the source.
Whether you’re dealing with wood rot, mold, musty odors, or sagging floors, our team ensures your crawl space stays clean, dry, and structurally sound.
Missouri’s high humidity and clay soil make crawl spaces especially vulnerable to moisture intrusion, mold growth, and wood rot. Encapsulation seals off these issues at the source, improving indoor air quality, protecting your foundation, and reducing energy bills.
A vapor barrier is a key component of a comprehensive encapsulation system. While a fundamental vapor barrier lays plastic on the ground, encapsulation fully seals the floor, walls, and piers—often with insulation and dehumidification, creating a dry, controlled space.
Yes. When there’s groundwater or evidence of standing water, we install a drainage system beneath the vapor barrier to redirect water to a sump pump or exterior outlet. This ensures long-term dryness and prevents mold or structural issues.
Absolutely. A clean, encapsulated crawl space signals buyers that the home is well-maintained, energy-efficient, and structurally sound. It also protects against problems that could derail a home inspection.
