Water Damage in Crawlspace in Lincoln City, Oregon
Crawlspaces are the area under the house that provides a buffer between the house and the damp earth below. This is the area where duct work and utility cables can be found. If you have ever noticed water in your crawlspace it could be from a plumbing leak, ground water, or condensation. It’s not good to have standing water on the vapor barrier of the crawlspace because it can lead to elevated moisture and cause microbial growth. As much as 50% of the air in the home comes from below in the crawlspace so it’s important to have a dry and clean crawlspace for your homes air quality. It’s crucial to call a professional water restoration company like Disaster Master to mitigate the water damage.
