The Importance of Proper Crawl Space Drainage
If a pipe was leaking water in your house, you’d fix it immediately. You’d do so because you know the damage sitting water and excess moisture can cause to the structures in your home. But what happens when you can’t see the water pooling?
Unfortunately, the problem just continues to worsen with time, and when it comes to your crawl space, it can take you weeks, months, or even years to notice you’ve got a drainage issue. This standing water can eventually lead to mold, mildew, rotting floor joists, and damage to the structural integrity of your home.

If heavy rains mean a muddy crawl space beneath your Virginia Beach home, installing a crawl space drainage system can help safely navigate water out and away from your home. When water seeps into your crawl space, it will eventually evaporate, causing humidity levels to rise.
Learn More : Why waterproofing mattersThat humidity in the air will seep into the rest of your home, taking with it the dirt, pest excrement, and mold particles they picked up in your crawl space. These particles can lead to respiratory issues for those who suffer from asthma and other lung issues and reduce the air quality of your entire home. When you’re noticing these signs of moisture issues, talk with the team at VFS about installing a sump pump or dehumidification system to keep the air in your home clean and dry.
