Do I Need To Encapsulate My Crawl Space?
Yes, because encapsulating your crawl space is the most effective way to prevent problems caused by Nashville's hot and humid summers. High humidity, standing water, wood rot, pests, sagging floors, and mold are common issues for an unprotected crawl space. Encapsulation is the only proven way to restore your crawl space to a healthy space.
Four Benefits Of Crawl Space Encapsulation:
Improved Indoor Air Quality
More than 50% of your indoor air comes from your crawl space. Encapsulating your crawl space prevents moisture and mold growth, which can improve the air quality of your home and reduce the risk of respiratory issues.
Increased Energy Efficiency
Encapsulation prevents air leakage and improves insulation by sealing off the crawl space from frigid air (winter) and hot humid air (summer), resulting in reduced energy consumption and lower utility bills.
Structural Protection
Encapsulating your crawl space protects against wood rot and other types of structural damage caused by moisture and pests, preserving your home’s value and preventing costly repairs.
Pest Control
An encapsulated crawl space is less inviting to Nashville’s common pests like rodents, termites, and insects, helping prevent infestations and reducing the need for pest control treatments.

dana sherrard2024-04-02I cannot say enough good things about your company. AJ and Ken were here all day and did a thorough and professional job. They were thoughtful and courteous and went out of their way to explain to us what they were doing, even taking pictures and made sure everything was left neat and clean when they left. Thanks so much!
WB MD2024-04-02Ken and AJ communicated well, showed up early, and worked hard to make sure our ducts and registers were clean. We are very appreciative.
Bonnie Laylon2024-03-25Unknown to me I had very dangerous toxic mold in my crawl space. After researching several different companies, I decided on The Clean Air Co. They were very professional and explained encapsulation was the solution. There was nothing hidden in their quote and no add ons like removal of previous insulation and spraying to remove mold. Upon completion Kenneth and Ken throughly cleaned and sanitized my ducts. I felt owner Tim Finlan went over and above to make sure I was pleased with their work. I highly recommend this company.

Susan Saums2024-03-08The team was professional and efficient, work began and ended on schedule. This long overdue work was painless for the homeowner.
Elizabeth Husband2024-03-02Clean Air company earned their 5 stars on our job. We had an internal french drain issue that was causing foundation issues. They figured out and completely fixed all our drainage problems. Other companies like TFS were scratching their heads, uncertain about what to do, and quoting work that turned out to be unnecessary. I want to thank everyone on the team. Tim, Nate and Justin you guys are the best! We will be a customer for life.

Jim M2024-02-19Wonderful business!! After requesting 5 separate bids due to the size and scope of our needs, we went with the Clean Air Company to address our very musty crawlspace with hydrostatic water pressure issues. Tim and his team were so professional during the bidding process and treated it like a true project with planning and communication from the onset. They transformed the worst imaginable crawl space into a clean, dry, temp/humidity controlled space. We could not be happier and extend a referral to anyone who asks!
