Safely Cleaning Up the Crawl Space

Water can get beneath your crawl space and wreck sheer havoc on the foundation of your home. What’s even worse is the fact that the filthy water can mix directly with the soil to cause mold formation. One of the many causes for crawl space water damage is the rupturing of a sewer line. Raw sewage can sneak into your home and cause severe health issues. You’ll need to pump out the excess water from the crawl space to eliminate any potential room for disasters.

Unless you have access to a sump pump and knowledge of crawl space remediation, you’re going to have to enlist the help of a professional. Not only will the expert fix the crawl space problem, they will also conduct a sewer gas evacuator test. This allows for fresh air to circulate throughout your home and expel any foul scent of sewage entirely. They will also need to dry out the watered soil to prevent any possible contamination from occurring.

Homes at greatest risk for crawl space flooding are those situated near bodies of water. It’s common for a pond or stream to overflow into your backyard during a thunderstorm or heavy terrestrial rain downpours. Keep your crawl space clean and have it inspected on a regular basis. In addition to water flooding, you might have a rodent infestation down there, which could also lead to health symptoms. Crawl spaces should be examined thoroughly. Be sure to call up a referred pro as soon as you’ve encountered the problem.
