Crawl Spaces
If you have a a crawl space, it is most likely a location that you will only visit when there is a noticeable problem. This is because they are usually poorly closed off and are frequently unkempt, dirty, and can have critters living in them. They are notorious for having excess moisture problems that could cause damage to the floor joists and even enable mold to grow. Our experts know one of the best ways to prevent issues in crawl spaces is to encapsulate them and close them off from the outside. This will control excess moisture and humidity in addition to 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 level the sagging floor. To further prevent excess moisture, we can install a specialized crawl space dehumidifier to remove the excess humidity and prevent the growth of mold. More Information
