Crawl Space Repair in Southeastern Minnesota, Northern Iowa & Western WI
We fix Crawl Spaces in Southeastern Minnesota,
Northern Iowa and Western Wisconsin
American Waterworks has been providing solutions for crawl space moisture and water problems for homeowners throughout Southeastern Minnesota, Northern Iowa & Western WI.
Nothing destroys a new crawl space like the twin forces of humidity and water. Allowing a dirt and humid space to remain under your home is a terrible idea, and as the wood in the space begins to decay, it can lead to expensive damage in the home. If your crawl space is showing damage from mold, rot, and moisture, there's no time like the present to fix it.
If you have a moldy, rotting, smelly crawl space, ask yourself this question: How dry are my vents keeping my crawl space so far? When contractors are installing crawl spaces, their goal is to create an opportunity for air to circulate from the outside through the crawl space area, pulling the moisture out of the crawl space and carrying it outside.
Before Repair
After Encapsulation
Once mold establishes itself on the wet wood and organic material in a crawl space, it begins to damage the wood and fill the air with tens of thousands of spores. Odors, mold spores, allergens, and humidity will all rise upwards with the warmed air, joining the air in the home. As the crawl space rots, repairs will need to be done, and finding a crawl space contractor who's willing to crawl into a moldy, damp, and rodent-infested crawl space to tear out the old wood and install new wood won't be cheap. And even if you do repair the Minnesota, Iowa & Wisconsin crawl space, you haven't solved the problem unless the vents have been sealed and the moisture is kept out.
Moldy Crawl Space
Vented crawl spaces are affected by much more than the summer heat. When winter sets in humidity will not be significant, but the freezing temperatures entering the, Minnesota, or Iowa crawl space will offer problems of their own. As winter air streams into the crawl space, water heaters, hot water pipes, and heating ducts will all cooled and will need to use more energy to do their job correctly. The floor above the crawl space will also feel the effects of the temperatures, creating a cold, unpleasant feel when walked upon. This is not the best choice for you or your home!
Crawl Space Vapor Barrier in Greater Minneapolis: MN, IA
Encapsulated, CleanSpace Crawl Space
Sealing off crawl space vents and following up by lining the walls and floor of the crawl space with a reliable vapor barrier is the best way to protect the crawl space and help preserve the value of the home. A reliable 20-mil reinforced liner like the one offered in the CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier System can keep a crawl space dry, healthy, and usable as dry, healthy space. Additionally, a crawl space encapsulation helps you retain the value of your home and save money on utility bills. In natural gas, heating oil, and electricity bills alone, Basement Systems estimates that their network of experienced crawl space contractors have saved more than five million dollars annually. Think of how many expenses have also been prevented through no-longer-necessary mold remediation and wood repair and replacement in crawl spaces!
Warranted for 25 years against tears and rips, mold-resistant, and acting as a passive radon mitigation system, the CleanSpace liner American Waterworks provides is the best way to keep your crawl space healthy and clean.
If you live in Southern Minnesota, Northeastern Iowa, or Western Wisconsin and are looking for the best in the business, they're here to help you!
