Why Fort Collins Crawl Spaces Need Protection
Local conditions mean moisture & radon risk
Here in Fort Collins, our crawl space areas face some unique challenges. And honestly? Most homeowners don't realize what's happening in their crawl space until it becomes a real problem.
The Colorado Front Range isn't exactly forgiving when it comes to groundwater and foundation moisture issues. We see seasonal humidity swings that can wreak havoc on unprotected crawl spaces throughout Fort Collins. Then there's the radon issue - Colorado has some of the highest radon levels in the country (we're talking about 1 in 2 homes having elevated levels according to the EPA).
​
Last month, we inspected a crawl space on Prospect Road in Fort Collins where the homeowner kept wondering why their energy bills were climbing. Turns out, moisture was getting in through the foundation, creating the perfect storm of problems that required professional crawl space repair and encapsulation services.
What does this mean for your Fort Collins home's crawl space?
Groundwater seepage during spring melt affecting foundation stability
High seasonal humidity (especially summer afternoons) creating moisture buildup
Natural radon entry through foundation cracks and unsealed spaces
Temperature swings that create condensation and vapor barrier deterioration
Customized Crawl Space Services for Fort Collins Homes
Solutions engineered for Colorado climates
We don't do cookie-cutter solutions here. Every Fort Collins crawl space is different, and frankly, your neighbor's fix might not work for your place.
Vapor Barrier & Insulation – We use high-grade vapor barrier materials plus wall and floor insulation designed specifically for Colorado's climate. Not the thin vapor barrier stuff you see at big box stores that fails within years.
Full Crawl Space Encapsulation – Complete sealed crawl space system that tackles radon and keeps pests out. This is the gold standard for crawl space encapsulation (and honestly, what we recommend for most Fort Collins homes dealing with moisture issues).
Drainage & Sump Systems – French drains and sump pumps that actually handle our spring runoff and foundation repair needs. We've seen too many failed systems that couldn't keep up with Colorado weather patterns and crawlspace floor flooding.
Climate Control & Dehumidifier Installation – Professional dehumidifier systems and airtight seals that work year-round in your crawl space. Because what good is encapsulation if you can't control the environment and prevent mold growth?
One thing we learned after 20+ years in business serving Fort Collins - half-measures don't work in Colorado crawl spaces. You either do it right with proper vapor barrier installation and sealed crawlspace walls, or you'll be calling someone back for repairs in a few years.

Had a client in Old Town Fort Collins tell us last week: "Finally, contractors who actually show up when they say they will." That shouldn't be remarkable, but apparently it is these days when it comes to crawl space and foundation work.
Early Warning Signs Your Crawl Space Needs Help
Is your crawl space trying to tell you something?
Your home usually gives you hints before crawl space problems get really bad. Here's what we see most often in Fort Collins crawl spaces:
Musty odors that seem to come from nowhere (especially after it rains) indicating moisture and potential mold
Dampness or standing water you can see or feel in your crawl space area
Uneven floors or doors that suddenly don't close right due to foundation settling
Pests making themselves at home in your unsealed crawl space
Higher energy bills without explanation due to poor insulation and air leaks
Allergy symptoms that get worse at home from poor air quality and mold spores
We inspected a crawl space near CSU in Fort Collins last year where the homeowner kept getting sick. Mold levels were through the roof because moisture had been getting in through failed vapor barrier for months. Sometimes your nose knows before your eyes do when it comes to crawl space moisture problems.
The reality is, most Fort Collins homes have some level of crawl space moisture issues due to our Colorado climate and soil conditions. Early intervention with proper encapsulation and vapor barrier installation can prevent costly foundation repair down the road.
Benefits You Can See & Feel from Crawl Space Encapsulation
Real improvements for your Fort Collins home & health
Here's what actually happens when you properly encapsulate your crawl space with professional vapor barrier and moisture control:
Healthier indoor air – No more musty smells or wondering what you're breathing from your crawl space. One Fort Collins family told us their daughter's asthma symptoms improved within a month after we sealed their crawl space and installed a dehumidifier system.
Lower energy bills – We typically see 15–20% savings on heating and cooling costs after proper crawl space insulation and encapsulation. That adds up over time (especially with Colorado's temperature swings affecting your crawl space temperature).
Radon reduction – Critical here in Colorado. Proper crawl space encapsulation with sealed vapor barrier can significantly reduce radon levels entering your home through foundation cracks.
Pest resistance – Sealed crawl spaces with proper vapor barrier don't give critters easy access to your home through crawlspace openings.
Extra storage space – Clean, dry, encapsulated crawl space means usable storage space. Novel concept for Fort Collins homeowners, right?
The data backs this up too. According to Energy Star, proper crawl space encapsulation can reduce energy costs by up to 20% in our climate zone. When you factor in potential foundation repair costs and mold remediation expenses, the investment in professional encapsulation pays for itself.
What Makes Our Fort Collins Crawl Space Team Stand Out
Fort Collins' trusted crawl-space contractors
We've been doing crawl space encapsulation in Northern Colorado for over 20 years. That means we understand local soil conditions, building codes, and what actually works here for crawl space moisture control (versus what looks good on paper).
Deep local knowledge – We know Fort Collins soils, climate patterns, and how homes in different neighborhoods behave when it comes to crawl space issues. Experience with Colorado crawl spaces you can't get from a national chain or basement systems company.
Certified materials – We use CleanSpace® vapor barriers and professional-grade spray foam insulation. Not because they're the most expensive, but because they last in Colorado crawl space conditions and provide superior moisture control.
BBB-accredited with A+ rating – Easy to verify our crawl space work and reputation. Our encapsulation projects speak for themselves, but it's nice to have the credentials too when choosing contractors.
Transferable warranty – If you sell your Fort Collins house, the crawl space encapsulation warranty goes with it. Adds value and peace of mind for future buyers concerned about foundation and moisture issues.
Had a client in Harmony Fort Collins last month say something that stuck with me: "You guys actually know what you're talking about when it comes to crawl space problems." It's refreshing when contractors understand the local challenges instead of just reading from a script about generic basement systems.
