Full Crawl Space Encapsulation in Covington, TN: Solving Mold Issues in a Newly Renovated Home

Steve C. of Covington, TN had recently completed a major $250,000+ renovation on his cherished family home, replacing much of the original wood throughout the structure. Just months later in 2024, he began noticing mold growth in the crawl space—an alarming sign, especially after such a significant investment. Steve knew it was time for a permanent solution to protect his home’s foundation and air quality. The challenge? A massive 60-foot-long, 18-inch-wide duct line resting on the ground, obstructing access and airflow beneath the home.

After weighing bids, Steve chose our team over the competition to handle the full crawl space encapsulation using our CleanSpace system. We coordinated with his HVAC contractor, who agreed to remove or raise the large duct line to provide the necessary clearance. With a wide-open crawl space, existing plastic sheeting, and plenty of headroom, we were able to execute a clean, thorough encapsulation. We also planned for a new access point between the main and secondary crawl spaces, adding a CleanSpace partition to seal off the small outdoor kitchen entry where a sliding garbage bin had been the only way in. Additional enhancements included CleanSpace over two unused crawl doors and installing a sump pump near the main entry with strategic discharge placement.

Steve, a local business owner, hunter, and pilot, trusted us to deliver a long-lasting solution for his home—and we did just that. By solving the moisture and mold issue at its source, we helped protect his investment and give him peace of mind.
