Your Expert Crawl Space Repair Company Serving Sturgeon Bay, WI
Your crawl space is the area between your floorboards with their supporting rafters and the ground. It’s shallower than a basement, so you can’t fully stand up in it. That’s why it’s called a crawl space. Believe it or not, up to 50% of the air that you breathe in your home can enter through your floors from the crawl space. Therefore, if the area under the floor develops issues with mold, pests, rodents, or moisture, it can affect your whole home. When this happens, call ABT Foundation Solutions Inc. for assistance from the crawl space repair experts that have been serving Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin, and the surrounding area since 2002.
Our 5-Step Process
Repairing a crawl space isn’t as simple as merely patching up a few cracks. We use a 5-step crawl space repair process that ensures we can create a lasting solution to keep your crawl space dry and free of pests for years to come.
- Identify and eliminate pest infestations. If you’re finding cockroaches, spiders or other bugs in your home, they could be coming from your crawl space. We’ll look for signs of infestation when we first inspect your crawl space and, if needed, refer you to the appropriate pest experts to remove that problem before we start our work.
- Remove moisture. Standing water in your crawl space can create issues for your foundation and encourage mold and mildew growth. It may be necessary to add a sump pump and water control system to keep water from pooling.
- Install a dehumidifier. You want the humidity in your crawl space to be at 50% or less. To achieve that, we may need to install a crawl space dehumidifier.
- Seal it off. We use high-quality encapsulation or a vapor barrier plastic material to seal off your basement. We also use Dry Right Crawl Space Solution™ to line the crawl space completely, keeping it clean, dry, and safe from pests.
- Insulate the crawl space. Installing crawl space insulation helps to keep your crawl space cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
