Reminder to Check Your Crawlspace
9/1/2020 (Permalink)
With storms headed our way this is just a friendly reminder to check places where you might get water. Checking your crawlspace regularly is a way to stay ahead of anything lurking where you least expect it. When water rises into the crawlspace and becomes trapped it is a gateway for mold into your home. Even though it may not seem like it, your crawlspace is still part of your home. It's like an attachment to your house. Neglecting your crawlspace is the equivalent to neglecting your basement. Checking your crawlspace once every few times may be enough but you never want to notice it long after the water or other problems have been there.
1. Noticeable discoloration from dampness
2. Strong Moldy/Musty smell when entering the crawlspace
3. Abnormal rise in humidity in the crawlspace
