January 11th Real Estate Mortgage Shoppe

CRAWLSPACE:

Crawlspace and Mold Dangers

A crawl space moisture or water problem can cause health, safety, and comfort issues in your home, such as mold, rotted floor joists, or a pest infestation. The best way to prevent these problems is with crawl space encapsulation, moisture control, and waterproofing.

Signs of a Crawl Space Problem:

Excess moisture in the crawl space can contribute to:

-Musty odors and poor indoor air quality

-Feeling of dampness in the living area

-Buckled hardwood floors

-Mold growth

-Allergic reactions and worsened asthma symptoms

-Wood rot

-Increased energy usage and bills

-Pest infestations

Redeemers Group Solutions

  • Crawl Space Encapsulation: A crawl space vapor barrier is essential for preventing excess moisture from entering the space and causing mold growth.
  • Crawl Space Dehumidification: Adding a dehumidifier to the crawl space can help maintain a healthy moisture level and improve the air quality inside the home.
  • Crawl Space Insulation: Insulating your entire crawl space helps eliminate drafts and will make your home more comfortable and energy efficient.
  • Crawl Space Structural Repair: We can eliminate sagging, bouncy floors by installing durable, adjustable crawl space support jacks under the floor joists.
  • Crawl Space Drainage: Crawl space drains and sump pumps remove any water that is in your crawl space to eliminate damage from flooding and moisture build up.

 

MOLD DANGERS:

Molds can produce allergens, irritants and potentially carcinogenic toxins. However, for each individual the effects associated with mold exposure can range dramatically. The following is a list of health effects connected to mold exposure:          

• Headaches      • Eye Irritation   • Asthma/Emphysema  • Confusion

• Fatigue             • Skin Rash         • Sinus Infection               • Dizziness

Where to look for household mold:

Mold needs water to grow. Therefore, mold is most commonly found in buildings with water-damaged building materials. Here are some common places to look for mold in your building:

• Basements      • Attics • Crawl Spaces  • Bathrooms
