Crawl spaces can be one of the more vulnerable parts of a home. With that in mind keeping a watchful eye on them is always going to be a good idea. In fact, we would recommend that you give us a call for a waterproofing procedure before some of the heavy rains in the area start. Granted, that could be a little harder to predict these days. So we’ve had to repair crawl spaces at odd moments of the year more frequently as of late. In any case, if you want us to take a look at your crawl space to see what the best way forward might be we’d be more than happy to do so.
Inspection Is Always The First Step
We want to go through the different phases of residential crawl space repair Greensboro NC. At times, we get calls from people who really want to get the area repaired as soon as possible. We understand the sense of urgency. At the same time, our job is to ensure that this urgency doesn’t lead to subpar repairs. That’s why we're also very diligent with our inspections. We want to make sure that we don’t miss any of the potential issues that could be plaguing your crawl space.
Mold Removal Can Be Part Of The Process
If you’ve dealt with water damage or just a heavy presence of moisture in the area you can’t rule out mold issues. This is one of the main reasons why we insist that inspections are so important. Trying to repair or repaint existing structures when there’s mold present could totally backfire on us. For example, trying to repaint the crawlspace area to improve its overalllook and feel at the wrong time can turn a small mold issue into a really big problem. Mold removal or at least thorough inspection to ensure mold is not present should be a main part of the repairprocess.
Then Come Repairs To The Structure
It’s only after that we’ve gone through the other steps that we mentioned that we’re actually going to start looking into repairs for the structure. Water damage can cause all sorts of issues within the framework. Especially if we’re dealing with a wooden framework which is typically going to be the case. If we do a good job with the inspection and the mold removal this process is going to be a lot easier. We’re going to be perfectly aware of which parts of the structure are salvageable and which just need to go.
