Crawl space encapsulation questions, answered
How much does crawl space encapsulation cost in Mountain Home?
$6,000–$13,200 for most crawl spaces.ASAP Crawlspace of Mountain Home encapsulates most crawl spaces for $6,000 to $13,200. The price depends on the size of the crawl space and whether it needs a dehumidifier, and your written price comes after a free inspection.
How long does crawl space encapsulation take?
1 to 3 days for most crawl spaces.At ASAP Crawlspace of Mountain Home, a job runs 5 to 7 days when mold, drainage, or wood repairs have to be done first, because the liner goes in last.
Do I need a dehumidifier if I encapsulate my crawl space?
Not always.ASAP Crawlspace of Mountain Home adds a dehumidifier only when the crawl space needs one, and the written price says why. Installed on its own, one costs $2,000 to $2,600 and takes 2 to 4 hours.
What is the cheapest alternative to encapsulating a crawl space?
A vapor barrier over the floor.ASAP Crawlspace of Mountain Home installs a floor vapor barrier for $2,600 to $5,200 in most crawl spaces. It covers the floor only; encapsulation also runs the liner up the walls and seals the vents.
What goes into an encapsulated crawl space
Encapsulation closes a crawl space off from the outdoors. This is what goes in, and what has to be dry and sound before it does.
A liner over the floor and up the walls
The liner covers the bare ground and climbs the foundation walls, so moisture from the soil stays out of the air under your house.
Vents sealed
Open vents let muggy summer air under the house. Sealing them keeps that air out.
A dehumidifier, only when needed
Not every job gets one. Installed on its own, a dehumidifier costs $2,000 to $2,600, and the written price says why yours needs it.
Humidity in closed and vented crawl spaces
In a U.S. Department of Energy-funded field study in eastern North Carolina, closed crawl spaces stayed generally below 60% relative humidity in summer. Crawl spaces with vents in the walls were often above 80%.

Not a fix for standing water or rot
A wet or rotted crawl space gets drainage, standing water removal, or wood rot repair first.
