Wet crawl spaces can lead to serious foundation issues as well as water, fungus and mould damage to your home or cottage. If you’ve seen some dampness or standing water on your premises, don’t neglect it. You could make things worse by trying to fix it yourself. Lack of knowledge and inexperience can typically result in huge repair expenses. A professional has the training and tools to get the job done right.
Long Term Crawl Space Solutions Customized to Your Needs
Properly identifying your crawl space issues is the most important part of the remediation process. Although our crawl space solutions are typically based on unvented or conditioned (ideal for new buildings) construction, here are some basic techniques you could employ.
- Install gutters and slope grade away from the foundation (6 inches per 10 feet) to direct rain and surface water away from the house
- Empty downspouts 8 to 10 feet from the foundation
- Cover the crawl space with a 20 mil polyethylene vapour barrier called CleanSpace
- Overlap all seams and seal with CleanSpace vapour bond tape.
- Close and seal all foundation vents with CleanSpace vent covers or spray foam cavity to eliminate warm, moist outdoor air from entering the crawl space
- Seal forced air ductwork to reduce or eliminate leakage
