Comprehensive Crawl Space Water Removal for Wilmington

Crawl Space Dehumidification

Dehumidifiers sized for crawl spaces bring humidity down so the joists, beams and subfloor can release the water they absorbed.

Crawl Space Debris Removal

Contaminated debris from floodwater or a sewer leak is removed with protective gear and disposed of properly.

Crawl Space Insulation Replacement

Replacing insulation only after drying keeps moisture from being trapped against the wood again.

Crawl Space Water Extraction

Water is discharged well away from the foundation so it does not soak back into the soil around the crawl space.

Crawl Space Vapor Barrier Repair

Torn or loose sections of the vapor barrier are replaced after the crawl space is dry, so ground moisture stays out of the framing.

What is involved in crawl space water removal?

Making power safe, pumping out water, removing debris and wet insulation, drying the framing and repairing the vapor barrier.

Yes. Wet insulation holds water against the wood and stops insulating, so it is removed and replaced after drying.

Not usually. Tight spaces, electrical hazards and contaminated water make it a job for equipment and protective gear.

How is crawl space moisture measured?

With moisture meters on the joists and subfloor and hygrometers for the air, compared to normal levels.
