Crawlspace Waterproofing
Crawlspaces are prime targets for moisture. This moisture creates a damp environment which, if not treated, can present significant health problems for you and your family and impact the integrity of your home. Some common issues associated with wet crawlspaces include:
- thriving mold, which becomes toxic when airborne
- attraction of insects and animals
- rot, decay, and structural damage
Ameri-Dry ® offers innovative crawlspace waterproofing solutions to keep your space free of moisture. Just call 1-866-601-6701 for a FREE estimate and to find out how Ameri-Dry ® can solve your wet crawlspace problems. We serve homeowners in Baltimore, New Jersey, Tennessee, and more.
Causes of a Wet Crawlspace
If you have a wet crawlspace in your home, you’re probably wondering why. Although the exact cause can be determined by a professional, there are a number of common reasons for a damp crawlspace. First and foremost, crawlspaces, by their very nature, attract moisture and humidity. Other factors only aggravate the situation. For instance:
- roof water may be falling too close to your home, saturating the ground around the house
- downspouts may be positioned incorrectly
- excessive watering of your yard can create too much moisture around the foundation
- if your home is on a slope, rainwater will flow down the slope and pool next to your foundation
- your home may have poor drainage and/or ventilation
If you want to know what exactly is causing you to have a wet crawlspace, our experts can help. At Ameri-Dri ®, we’ll provide you with a crawlspace waterproofing solution that lasts – just call!
