Why your neighbors trust AFS Repair

We've earned 191 five star reviews.

"Fairly new homeowner and we had some issues with our main floor bathroom ceiling separating from the wall. Concerned there may some foundational issues. AFS had great reviews so I went with a free inspection to see what they could find. Jesse came out during cold weather and explained in depth the company, the work, and the fix. Found a lot more wrong with the house than I would've ever imagined, but I believe they have expertise in their work. Have a lot to think about before making any decisions. Will follow up with a new review if we proceed with recommended work."

Types of Crawl Space Damage in Mount Washington

Common Causes of your Crawl Space Problems in Mount Washington

Moisture and Humidity

Excess moisture in your crawl space can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage over time.

Groundwater Seepage

Poor drainage or leaking pipes can lead to standing water in your crawl space, potentially causing mold growth and compromising structural integrity.

Poor Ventilation

Open vents in your crawl space allow humid air to enter, leading to condensation, mold, and long-term moisture damage.

Pest Infestations

Damp or unsealed crawl spaces create an inviting environment for rodents, termites, and other pests, leading to structural damage and contamination.

Soil Settlement

Shifting soil beneath your home can lead to foundation settlement, causing sagging floors and damage to crawl space supports.

Foundation Cracks

Cracks in crawl space foundation walls allow water, pests, and unconditioned air to enter, causing moisture and structural issues.

High Energy Bills

Poorly sealed or damaged crawl spaces can increase heating and cooling costs due to energy loss.

Stack Effect

Damage in your crawl space allows mold and odors to spread into your home. Repairing the crawl space prevents this, improving your air quality and living environment.

Climate Conditions

Heavy rains or drought can shift the soil beneath your home, leading to sagging floors or structural damage in your crawl space. Repairing these issues restores stability and protects your home from further problems.
