Moisture Control Under Your Home
How does moisture enter your crawlspace?
Moisture is a naturally occurring element, and we can never completely get rid of it. But, we can always do something to keep it from entering our properties and causing havoc in the living space. Unfortunately, there are different ways moisture can enter the crawlspace:
- Plumbing Leaks. Most home and building piping systems run through the crawlspace, and it’s easy to assume the moisture and water pooling are caused by leaks in the plumbing system. This isn’t harmful in the early days, but if neglected, the area becomes susceptible to mold, mildew, and excess moisture. Regular inspections of your plumbing system and crawlspace are necessary to fix the early-stage problems.
- Subterranean Leaks. These are the leaks that originate from the ground. Usually, broken water lines cause this issue. If you suspect this in your property, you should call city officials for a proper solution.
- Soil. Flooding and frequent snowfall cause the soil from the outside to enter a crawlspace. This dirt in the area is terrible, since soil absorbs vapor and increases the crawlspace’s moisture level.
- Open vents. Vented crawlspaces allow for air movement, and because of the “stack effect,” warm outside air will be sucked into the crawlspace. Sealing the vents is an important decision that you should make if you want to control the humidity level in your home and keep your indoor atmosphere healthy.
How to fix moisture in the crawlspace
We have a comprehensive solution to moisture problems for residential and commercial properties. Our expert crawlspace moisture remediation includes installing crawlspace drainage, a moisture barrier, a sump pump, an encapsulation system, a dehumidification system, and waterproofing system.
Crawlspace Drainage
Moisture is always associated with wet crawlspaces and water pooling. You know you have water issues when you see ponding water, water marks on the foundation and surfaces, water on top of moisture barriers, and water marks on the soil. Usually, a sump pump installation and French drain design can help fix this issue. But for better results, it pays off to schedule a FREE inspection from our professionals.
Moisture Barriers
It is essential to maintain a wood moisture content level of 20% in the crawlspace. The correct thickness of the barrier will help achieve this level. Our moisture barrier installation service usually uses ten-mil. polyethylene barriers spiked to the ground and taped along the overlapped seams to keep it steady.
Encapsulation System
Encapsulation seals your crawlspace, leaving no chances for moisture and water damage. Encapsulation includes removing all water, installing a drainage system, putting down a new vapor barrier, applying spray foam insulation, sealing all vents and doors, and installing a crawlspace dehumidifier to remove any extra moisture in the air.
Dehumidification System
Crawlspaces separate homes from the damp soil, making them more prone to excessive moisture. Thankfully, with the help of a crawlspace dehumidifier, you don’t have to worry about moisture buildup and all its related effects on your health and property. A crawlspace dehumidifier offers automated humidity control, moisture control, and mold growth prevention and allows for healthy air in the living area.
Vent Covers
Crawlspace vent insulation and a vent cover help keep humidity at the proper level inside your crawlspace. By sealing off ventilation, you are preventing outside air from getting inside your home. Additionally, it keeps the indoor air quality high, thus making your place more suitable and safer for everyone.
Waterproofing
Even if your crawlspace appears perfectly fine, water leakage chances are still high, especially for older homes or buildings with minimal maintenance checks. By undergoing crawlspace waterproofing, you can reduce or eliminate the risks of health issues and structural damages and ensure that you have a comfortable and safe indoor atmosphere.
