Crawl spaces in Cumberland County are prone to moisture, sagging floors, and poor ventilation. ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing provides repairs that seal out water, control humidity, and stabilize your home from the ground up.
In Cumberland County, a neglected crawl space can quietly damage your home from the ground up. Whether it’s musty air, sagging floors, or spikes in your energy bills, the root cause is often hidden below—excess moisture, wood rot, or structural shifts. At ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing, we specialize in crawl space repair that restores stability and keeps your home dry, safe, and efficient. With decades of experience in Pennsylvania homes, we understand the local soil, climate, and foundation types that drive these issues—and how to fix them for good.
Many crawl space issues reveal themselves slowly until the damage becomes impossible to ignore. You might notice sagging floors, musty odors, or a rise in indoor humidity. Over time, wood beams can weaken, insulation can fall, and mold can take hold. In Cumberland County, homes often experience these problems due to seasonal moisture, poor drainage, or aging structural supports.
Watch for symptoms like soft or uneven flooring, mildew around baseboards, worsening allergy symptoms, or unexplained energy bills. Visible moisture, pest activity, or standing water under the home are also clear red flags. These issues rarely go away on their own. The sooner they’re diagnosed and repaired, the more you can save in long-term damage and repair costs.
Cumberland County homes deal with a combination of humid summers, heavy rainfall, and winter freeze-thaw cycles, all of which stress the structure beneath your home. Water can seep in through poorly graded soil, clogged gutters, or foundation cracks. In vented crawl spaces, warm air meets cooler surfaces and causes condensation, which feeds mold and mildew. Older homes often have failing insulation or unsupported beams that weaken over time. Left untreated, this environment promotes rot, attracts pests, and puts strain on the flooring system above.
We design every crawl space solution around the unique needs of your home and the conditions we see in Cumberland County. Whether you’re dealing with water, mold, or structural damage, our team delivers repairs that last.
Waterproofing and Drainage
We install sump pumps, interior drainage channels, and vapor barriers to redirect water away from your crawl space. These systems prevent standing water, control ground moisture, and protect your foundation from long-term deterioration.
Structural Reinforcement
If your floor joists are sagging or your support piers are failing, we reinforce or replace the underlying structure to restore stability. This process corrects uneven floors and prevents further settlement or damage to your living space above.
Insulation Replacement
Damaged or outdated insulation contributes to high energy costs and poor indoor air quality. We remove wet, sagging materials and replace them with crawl space–specific insulation that resists moisture and supports long-term comfort.
Humidity and Moisture Control
Crawl spaces are naturally prone to high humidity, which feeds mold growth and structural decay. We install commercial-grade dehumidifiers and seal off exterior vents to maintain a dry, balanced environment year-round.
Every repair is backed by our Life-of-the-Structure Warranty and completed by certified technicians who specialize in crawl space systems. We take the time to explain our findings, answer your questions, and design a plan that fits your budget and your home.

For homes in Cumberland County that struggle with recurring moisture, musty air, or sagging floors, crawl space encapsulation offers a complete and lasting solution. This process involves sealing the entire crawl space with a thick, reinforced vapor barrier across the floor and up the walls. We close off outside vents, install airtight access doors, and add mechanical dehumidifiers to maintain proper humidity levels year-round.
Encapsulation transforms your crawl space from a damp, vulnerable area into a clean, controlled environment. It helps prevent mold growth, protects wood framing from rot, and blocks pests and outside air from infiltrating your home. By stabilizing the space beneath your floors, it also improves energy efficiency and air quality throughout the house.
Whether you’re planning to stay in your home long term or want to increase its value before selling, crawl space encapsulation is one of the most effective upgrades you can make. At ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing, we use materials designed to last and install every system with care and precision. If your crawl space is constantly damp or producing a musty smell, encapsulation can restore comfort and protection from the ground up.
Crawl space repair costs depend on the size of the space, the level of damage, and the type of solution required. Basic services like sealing or drainage installation cost less than full encapsulations or structural repairs. The best way to understand pricing is through a free inspection. One of our experts will evaluate your crawl space and provide a clear, detailed estimate tailored to your home, no guesswork, no pressure.
