"Absolutely could not be more impressed with the integrity, Thoroughness, and honesty I received from Mitchell at Groundworks.
I have been seeing some water seepage through my poured foundation walls as well as cracks in the basement floor. I work 2 jobs and it’s difficult to make appointments where I can be home. Mitchell was more than willing to be here on a Saturday afternoon to fit my schedule. He was here over 1.5 hours inspecting, laser leveling, and checking everything he could. As much as I wanted answers, I was terrified to have the issues looked at due to financial constraints.
As it turns out, I have some poor quality concrete and some minor cracking & settling going on. No immediate repairs needed. I feel like I can breathe easy again and am so so thankful for the thoroughness of Mitchell’s inspection and his honesty about what’s going on. I will continue to monitor the situation and if repairs are needed in the future, I will definitely have Groundworks out again. Definitely give these folks a try, they are fabulous."
Common Causes of your Crawl Space Problems in Omaha
Moisture and Humidity
Excess moisture and high humidity levels in the crawl space can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage. This often results from poor ventilation or water seepage.
Poor Drainage
Inadequate drainage systems can cause water to accumulate around the foundation, leading to water infiltration and increased moisture levels in the crawl space.
Open Crawl Space Vents
Open vents allow outside air and moisture to enter the crawl space, which can lead to condensation, mold growth, and pest infestations.
Foundation Cracks
Cracks in the foundation can compromise the structural integrity of your home by allowing water infiltration, which can lead to further deterioration and instability.
Plumbing Leaks
Leaks from plumbing systems can saturate the soil around the foundation, leading to erosion and weakening of the structure.
Understanding these common causes can help you take proactive measures to protect your crawl space and maintain the overall health of your home.
