Water and humidity will contribute to rotting wooden structures, including wooden supports and floor joists. We always remind our valued customers that those wooden supports and floor joists partially carry the weight of your house. When the supports begin to rot, you may notice uneven floors and uneven rooms. Additionally, moisture present in a basement or crawlspace will create an environment suitable for the development of mold and mildew, which are universally known to to be to blame for a variety of medical issues.

Warning signs which might indicate a problem with a damp crawl space:

• Uneven floors in the first floor of a house
• Musty and moldy odors emanating from the basement
• Unexplained health problems
• Insects and pests are colonizing the crawlspace
• Water standing around the footing of the home
