Encapsulation

This involves sealing the basement environment to prevent moisture and humidity from entering. This method is often used in crawl spaces but can also apply to full basements. Here’s how it works:
Vapor Barrier: A thick plastic or polyethylene sheet is installed over the floors and walls to create a barrier against moisture.
Sealing: All seams, joints, and penetrations are sealed to ensure no air or moisture can enter.
Dehumidification: Sometimes, a dehumidifier is used to control humidity levels within the encapsulated space.
Insulation: Insulating the walls may also be part of the process to enhance energy efficiency and maintain stable temperatures.
Encapsulation effectively reduces the risk of mold growth, structural damage, and indoor air quality issues by creating a controlled environment.

Floor Supports

These structural elements designed to support the weight of the floors above and ensure the stability of the building. They are crucial for maintaining the integrity of the foundation and preventing sagging or structural failure. The floor supports used in basements. This can involve Joists: Horizontal framing members that run between beams and provide support for the flooring above. They are typically spaced evenly to support the weight of the floor. Proper installation and maintenance of these supports are essential to ensure the safety and longevity of the structure.
