Crawl Space Encapsulation
Commercial Grade Guardian is available in 12 or 20 mil thickness. Our 12 mil is the best choice for most crawl spaces. It is perfect for light traffic and medium storage. Our guardian liner is made up of 100% virgin polyethylene resin with an antimicrobial additive and is reinforced with polyester thread for maximum tear strength. Our liner consists of 3 layers: top, middle and back. The top layer is bright white and will keep your crawl space clean and tidy year around. Middle layer is a polyester thread to reinforce the vapor barrier as well as to control any punctures from spreading. The reinforcement makes it impossible to tear and requires a sharp knife to cut. The reinforcement is embedded by adding an additional layer of molten polyethylene resin. The back layer features an antimicrobial additive to inhibit any mildew growth.
Crawl space encapsulation improves the homes overall health and comfort. In the last 10 years, the concept of sealing a crawl space has grown in popularity. Most of this is because of the results it delivers when it is done properly.
Our Guardian Liner comes with a 25-year manufactory warranty.
When I got a report of mold beginning to appear on the substructures of my home in the crawl space, I knew something needed to be done, not just to abate the mold growth, but to prevent that mold from returning in the future. On the recommendation of a relative, I called Delaware Crawl Space to get an evaluation of the condition of my crawl space and to obtain a proposal on steps that could be taken to remediate the problem. Of several companies that I contacted, Delaware Crawl Space offered the most complete and comprehensive solution. They proposed a solution that should last for the life of the home.
I contracted with David Wilson of Delaware Crawl Space Company in the fall of 2010 to have my crawl space fully encapsulated. What a relief it has been, knowing that in all kinds of weather; wet, dry, cold, or hot, my crawl space maintains constant temperature and humidity levels. Previous to the work being completed, I had issues with insulation sagging, cold floors and the concern of vents not being sealed which could lead to frozen pipes.
We could not have been able to move into our current house if it wasn’t for you, David, and all the impressive work of Delaware Crawl Space Company! Our family will forever be grateful!
About 2 years ago I was under my home in our crawl space to turn our outside faucets, and I noticed a very little bit of mold growing in one portion of our subfloor and joist. We called Delaware Crawl Space Company and within a day Dave came out and looked at our crawl space. Turned out it wasn’t a huge issue we just had a slightly high moisture level in the crawl space. Dave recommended a dehumidifier, and it was installed that week, and even took the time to explain to me how to read the monitoring device he gave us. I feel much better looking at that device almost every day and knowing my crawl space is staying dry and I am preventing any mold issues in our home. Would highly recommend these guys.
We are pleased to endorse the fine work the Delaware Crawl Space Company performed in our crawl space. We should say “transformed.” The effort involved several moving pieces but DCSC managed to coordinate with other trades and produce an exceptionally dry, clean and useful crawlspace in place of a dank, wet, moldy and stinky space. Mr. Wilson produced a well thought out plan to address our needs at a very reasonable price. His crew was hardworking and pleasant. No hard sell, just hard work and great results.!
Thank you so much for your excellent quality of work. We appreciate the job you did for us and we are so pleased. This is the second time Dave has done work for us. We also hired his other company, Wilson Contracting to so some work for us and he proves to have excellent quality of work, being trustworthy and reliable.

We have owned our house for 14 years and having the crawl space encapsulation was the best home improvement we have made. In addition to making the crawl space air tight and environmentally cleaner, it also warmed up the flooring in our living area and, I’m sure our heating cost.
The work performed by Delaware Crawl Space Company was professional, courteous and completed on time. We highly recommend Delaware Crawl Space Company.
Today I am sitting in my house while it is 35° outside with 95% humidity (not counting the inches of snow on the ground) but it is 60° in my crawl space with 47% humidity and completely dry. That’s because this past July, Delaware CrawlSpace Company did a crawl space encapsulation for us. We were having dampness and very high humidity problems. Our insulation had degenerated and mold was found. I appreciated my interaction with Dave Wilson and find him to be very personable. The technician was also professional and did an excellent job in timely manner. My crawl space looks just like the picture in the literature. I would highly recommend Delaware CrawlSpace Company to anyone having a crawl space problem.
Our crawlspace encapsulation was completed by Delaware CrawlSpace about a month ago and we are already noticing a decrease in humidity inside of our home. We have had several 85 – 90 degree days this Spring with high humidity readings but have not yet needed to turn on the A/C! We have been in our home since 2001 and normally by now the A/C would be on for the rest of the Summer. The only thing we can attribute this to is our new crawlspace encapsulation. We are “almost” looking forward to cold weather this year to see the difference the encapsulation makes in the Winter. Sorry we didn’t have it done years ago!!
Yippie. It’s like a Mercedes crawl space down there!
We’ve worked with Delaware Crawl Space Company for many years. Their workmanship is great and his customer service is second to none. After water damages or mold remediation, we feel very comfortable recommending DCSC to our customers. We know the job will be done right.

The results were totally amazing. There’s no longer a musty smell, the air is clean, and there are no creepy crawling critters. Best of all, we definitely noticed a difference in heating and cooling our home. Before encapsulating the crawlspace, the heating and cooling system would run often, and the home always seemed drafty. Now, the heating/cooling system runs for a shorter period, far less often, and the home actually holds the heat during the winter and stays cool and dry (less humid) during the summer. Would we do this again with Delaware Crawlspace? ABSOLUTELY!! We highly recommend David Wilson and his team.
