Omaha's Trusted Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation Specialists
Many Omaha homeowners might overlook the area beneath their house, but the crawl space plays a crucial role in the overall health and stability of their property. Issues within this space can significantly impact the rest of your home. If you’re noticing problems, BDB Waterproofing offers expert crawl space repair and encapsulation services to address a range of common concerns.
Common Crawl Space Problems We Repair
Leaky or Wet Spaces
When your crawl space isn't properly sealed, it becomes a magnet for moisture from rain and snow. This stagnant water creates a breeding ground for problems and can exacerbate all other issues. We specialize in identifying and resolving the sources of crawl space leaks.
Sagging Floor Joists
Excess moisture in your crawl space can cause the wooden floor joists above to warp, rot, sag, and weaken. If you notice uneven or soft spots on your main floor, it could be a sign of deteriorating floor joists. This damage can also attract unwanted pests like termites and mosquitoes. Our crawl space repair services include addressing and reinforcing damaged floor joists.
Mold Growth
Damp crawl spaces are ideal environments for mold and bacteria to thrive. They feed on standing water, high humidity, and organic materials like wooden joists. A moldy crawl space can create a persistent musty odor throughout your home and, more importantly, pose serious health risks, especially for individuals with allergies, asthma, or respiratory issues. Our crawl space repair often involves professional mold remediation and prevention.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
To ensure a clean, dry, and healthy environment beneath your home, BDB Waterproofing offers a proven crawl space waterproofing solution: crawl space encapsulation. Our system involves installing durable vapor barriers on crawl space walls and liners on the floors, effectively sealing off the area to prevent moisture intrusion, humidity buildup, and pest infestation.

Is Crawl Space Repair Costly
While there is an investment involved, crawl space encapsulation and crawl space repair are well worth the time and expense. Addressing these issues proactively is a smart investment in the long-term health of your family and the structural integrity of your home. Preventing moisture damage, mold growth, and pest infestations can save you significant costs on more extensive repairs down the road.
