How to cover a crawl space floor with plastic sheeting. Plenty thick and not too hard to work with. Our crawl space wall liners are translucent and are designed to wrap easily around the length of the interior walls of your crawl space as well as around the piers. We carry all the tape and adhesives you need to securely install your crawl space wall and floor liners to create a powerful moisture barrier.

Plastic sheeting in your crawl space can serve a number of useful purposes. Cut the sheets to size allowing 12 inches or more along walls. This approach helps minimize the risk of mold or mildew intrusion into the home. Primarily plastic is installed in crawl spaces to residential buildings to create a barrier against moisture or vapor.

I did my entire crawl space 2500 sq ft with this plastic and could not be happier. Overlap the seams by no less than 12 inches and secure them together with the poly pvc tape. A floor drain can be installed but might not be necessary. Even in the most arid areas of the country mother earth constantly releases water vapor which likes to seep into your crawlspace through.
