Wet Crawl Space in Virginia

A wet crawl space promotes the growth of mold and mildew along with wood rot. Mold and mildew can create an unhealthy living environment leading to health issues for you and your family. A crawl space is often ignored and you may not realize that you have a wet crawl space until the damage is begun. It is important to inspect your crawl space from time to time and see if there is standing water.

There are also other signs that you may have a wet crawl space.

• Mold growth
• Musty odors
• Wood rot
• High humidity throughout your home
• Insect and rodent infestation
• Water condensation on pipes
• Rusty metal surfaces
• High level of radon
• Peeling paint on exterior walls
• Floors buckling

If you have any of these signs of a wet crawl space, it is important to have a professional inspecting your crawl space and offer you the solution needed to keep your crawl space dry and safe from water. The experts at AMC911 Crawl Space & Foundation Repair have the experience and products to dry out your crawl space and keep it that way for many years to come.

Wet Crawl Space Solutions in Virginia

AMC911 Crawl Space & Foundation Repair offers crawl space encapsulation using a vapor barrier to promote safe, dry, and clean crawl spaces. Vapor barriers decrease the moisture levels in your crawl space and prevent water from entering the crawl space. Vapor barriers will improve your entire home’s air quality and make your home more energy-efficient. We use products manufactured by Earth Contact Products (ECP), the leading manufacturer of waterproofing products in the industry.

ECP vapor barriers are manufactured using a triple-ply woven, high-density virgin polyethylene membrane. These vapor barriers have the highest strength-to-weight ratio, highest tensile strength, and tear resistance of any product on the market today. ECP vapor barriers are 10 and 16 mil thick. The barriers that are in your local hardware store are 6 mils thick and are not puncture resistant. Once a vapor barrier is torn or punctured, it is useless.

Let the experts at AMC911 Crawl Space & Foundation Repair transform your wet crawl space into a clean living area. 40-50% of the air we breathe comes from the crawl space. Some of the air comes through windows and doors, but most of it comes from the crawl space. At AMC911 Crawl Space & Foundation Repair, we offer quality ECP vapor barriers.
