Moisture problems often start in the crawl space and go unnoticed until real damage begins. Excess humidity and standing water beneath your home can lead to wood rot, sagging floors, mold growth, and musty odors that can permeate your living space. Moist conditions also attract pests like termites, carpenter ants, and other insects that thrive in damp environments.
Addressing crawl space moisture early helps protect your home’s structure, indoor air quality, and long-term value. Compass Pest Management focuses on correcting the source of the problem, not just covering up the symptoms.
Every crawl space is different. That’s why Compass Pest Management offers customized moisture control solutions based on your home’s layout, drainage conditions, and existing issues. Our services work together to create a drier, healthier crawl space and long-term protection for your home.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
Encapsulation seals the crawl space with a durable barrier that helps control humidity, block ground moisture, and improve overall crawl space conditions. Our encapsulation system also includes a commercial-grade dehumidifier to actively control moisture and keep the space dry year-round.
Vapor Barrier Installation
A properly installed vapor barrier helps prevent moisture from rising through the soil and into your home’s structure, reducing the risk of mold growth and wood decay.
French Drain Systems
French drains are designed to manage standing water and redirect moisture away from the crawl space and foundation, helping prevent water accumulation.
Crawl Space Door Repair or Replacement
Damaged or poorly sealed crawl space doors allow moisture, humidity, and pests inside. Repairing or replacing crawl space doors improves sealing and helps maintain a controlled environment.
Insulation Removal & Replacement
Wet or damaged insulation can trap moisture and contribute to mold issues. We remove compromised insulation and replace it with materials better suited for crawl space environments.
Regular maintenance keeps your system working the way it should—year after year. During each visit, we inspect your crawl space, check drainage and barriers, and catch minor issues before they become expensive repairs. It’s the easiest way to protect your home’s structure and indoor air quality over time.
If you’re noticing damp conditions, musty odors, sagging floors, or recurring pest problems, moisture may be the root cause. Compass Pest Management can help.
Termites need moisture to survive, and damp crawl spaces create ideal conditions for them. Controlling moisture reduces the conditions that termites thrive in and helps protect your home’s structure.
We address moisture-related issues, including damaged insulation, vapor barriers, and crawl space access points. Any structural concerns identified during inspection can be discussed as part of your plan.
Most moisture control projects can be completed relatively quickly, depending on the crawl space size and the services involved. We’ll review the timeline with you before work begins.

I’ve been using Compass for over 5 years now for pest control and mosquito control and they do a great job. They are on time and always very professional. They are very accommodating if I ever needed anything else done like an ant problem in my kitchen.
