As far as your crawlspace is concerned, 2011 is shaping up to be a very stressful year. We have already had several consecutive days of 90 plus degree temperatures sprinkled with extreme high humidity and crawlspaces that have been historically dry are showing their damp side.

Now is a great time to take a peek inside your crawlspace to see how it faring.  Pick a day that has extreme heat and humidity and look for condensation accumulating on HVAC components, wood joist, and other building materials. If you observe excessive accumulation of condensation over a few visits, your crawlspace may need sealed or other humidity reduction services need be employed. Strong musty odors, sagging insulation, and damp/muddy conditions are also indicative of a serious moisture problem.

If you think you have a condensation problem, but entering the crawlspace is not your idea of fun, call us for a free no-hassle diagnosis of this area.
