Crawl Spaces
If you have a a crawl space, it is probably a location that you will only worry about when there is a noticeable problem. This is due to the fact that they are usually poorly closed off and are frequently unkempt, grimy, and can even have critters living in them. They are known for having excess humidity issues that can cause problems with the floor joists and even cause mold to grow. Our team knows an ideal way to prevent problems in crawl spaces is to encapsulate them and close them off from the exterior. This will control excess moisture and humidity as well as controlling the entry of unwanted pests. If you have sloping floors above the crawl space, we can install a series of jacks to lift and stabilize the floor joists and restore the sagging floor. To further control extra moisture, we can install a specialized crawl space dehumidifier to remove the excess humidity and prevent mold growth. More Information
