MOISTURE AND STRUCTURAL ISSUES
You’ve probably heard that moisture is the number one cause of structural failure in homes. Well, you’re right, but this problem can be easily fixed by sealing off your crawl space. In this article, we’ll explain to you what needs to happen if you must keep any water out of your home:
Moisture can enter a crawl space through the ground, foundation, floor, and walls. It is because the soil humidity infiltrates your home via cracks in foundations or floors and other areas where water has leaked through to the ground level. If this moisture settles on top of the crawl space floorboards or insulation, it can lead to mold growth over time.
