Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation in Westerville, OH

Review Logo 4.2 (176)

Unlike a basement, a crawl space is a very small area that lifts your house off the ground. It is convenient for storing plumbing, electrical wiring, and ductwork, but it is not without its faults. Most crawl spaces have open vents that pests can crawl through, and Westerville's average annual precipitation of 37 inches can lead to leaks and humidity build-up. This elevated humidity, combined with cold winter air and warm summer air, can create a perfect storm under your home, resulting in mold, wood rot, infestations, flooding, and sagging floors. Ohio Basement Authority offers permanent crawl space repair and encapsulation solutions to help you lock out these issues and create a safer, healthier living environment for your family.

Common Causes of your Crawl Space Problems in Westerville

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.
