In many parts of Scotland, older homes were built with ventilated crawl spaces that are now known to cause more harm than good—especially when paired with nothing more than a thin plastic sheet as a vapor barrier. Today, we understand that these traditional designs often lead to major problems: poor indoor air quality, mold and mildew growth, wood rot in key structural areas, increased pest activity, and energy loss due to damp, underperforming insulation.
Your crawl space is more than just an overlooked gap under your home—it’s a hidden room that can quietly harbor moisture-related issues if left untreated. Tony Kelly helps Scottish homeowners seal and protect this vulnerable area with modern, effective solutions.
Crawl space encapsulation involves several critical steps, and working with professionals like Tony Kelly ensures it’s done thoroughly and effectively. Here’s how the process unfolds when you trust our experienced team:
We start by removing any debris or damaged materials from the crawl space. In older Scottish homes, it’s common to find damp insulation, decaying wood, mold on beams or walls, and even remnants of past pest activity. Clearing these hazards creates a safer, cleaner environment and prepares the area for encapsulation.
After cleanup, we regrade the crawl space floor—typically made of exposed earth—to help direct any moisture toward the foundation edges. Then, we install a drainage system designed to capture and redirect water, protecting your home from long-term moisture issues.
Next, a sump pump is added to provide an extra line of defense against water buildup, especially in areas prone to rising groundwater. We also seal off any open vents, which are a major source of humidity entering your crawl space in Scotland’s variable climate.
To finish, we insulate the crawl space walls to help regulate temperature and improve energy efficiency. A heavy-duty vapor barrier is then installed to cover the entire space, blocking external moisture from entering. Finally, we install a commercial-grade dehumidifier to manage humidity levels and maintain a dry, healthy crawl space year-round.
With Tony Kelly, you can expect a complete, professional encapsulation process that transforms your crawl space into a clean, protected part of your home.
