/vapor-barrier-installation The barrier itself: material, seams, terminations and the details that decide whether it works.
Any barrier will stop vapor across its face. What separates a barrier that performs from one that does not is everything at the edges: how seams are lapped and taped, how piers and penetrations are sealed, and how the barrier terminates at the wall.
Crawlspace floors and walls as part of encapsulation, and basement walls as the drainage surface in front of block. Same principle, different job.
White chalky residue on block, a musty smell that never clears, cracks that keep growing, rust at the base of appliances, damp patches that darken a day or two after rain, and humidity you can feel. Any sign of water damage or mold is worth an inspection before it becomes structural.
Anywhere from three days to a week, depending on the scope of work and site conditions. You will get a specific timeline with your written scope rather than a guess over the phone.
Yes. Every system we install carries a lifetime labor warranty.
Interior work accepts that water is going to reach the wall, and gives it somewhere to go: a drain at the footing that carries it to a pump instead of onto your floor. Exterior work digs down along the outside of the wall and stops the water before it ever gets there. Interior costs less and is far less disruptive, and it is what most Lexington houses get. Exterior is the answer when the wall itself is the problem. Which one you need comes out of the inspection, not out of a phone call.
Call, or text a photo of the wall and we will tell you what we are looking at.
