About The Crawl Shield

Murfreesboro’s Crawlspace Protection Experts

Welcome to The Crawl Shield. Based in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, we’re your local specialists in crawlspace encapsulation, moisture control, vapor barrier installation, and floor support systems. With every home we touch we bring decades of experience, precision workmanship, and a commitment to doing things the right way.

For over 25 years in the construction and trades industry — including licensed home inspection — our founder, Mark Rader, has seen firsthand how invisible crawlspace issues silently damage homes: sagging floors, musty air, recurring mold, inefficient heating and cooling. After years working for large "big-box" firms, Mark realised homeowners deserved more than high-pressure sales and cookie-cutter fixes. He launched The Crawl Shield to deliver exactly that: more affordable, transparent, and high-quality services with no shortcuts.

Our mission is simple. We give Murfreesboro and surrounding Middle Tennessee homeowners the protection they need beneath their homes – because when the crawlspace fails, the whole house can suffer. From a free inspection and honest assessment through to skilled installation and a finish you can trust, we stand by our work, our team, and our promise to you.
