CRAWL SPACE WATERPROOFING
Common Problems in Crawl Spaces
High humidity levels in dirt crawl spaces cause moisture and condensation and is a signigicant issue. Cool surfaces such as wood, concrete, and metal will gather water vapor condensing out of the air. This moisture will saturate the materials, causing rot, rust, odors, and mold growth. The moisture will provide perfect nesting conditions for insects and rodents.
Moisture is the prime factor that causes structural damage. Over time, this moist environment damages wood framing, steel structural members and cost you money in replacement. Dirt and Concrete crawl spaces have high humidity levels necessary for mold growth. Humidity levels from 50% to 90% are easily found in dirt crawl spaces, even ones that have never flooded. THE GOOD NEWS IS.. there is a solution! Worldwide Waterproofing offers free crawl space inspections and will provide you a FREE WRITTEN REPORT.
