If you have water in your crawl space due to flooding or a busted or leaky pipe, you need to dry out that crawl space. Moisture can lead to foundation problems, as well as health concerns. We can help you with your crawl space cleanup.
Water, especially sewage, can make a crawlspace unusable and a health hazard. Spores of mildew can form from in the standing water, which also doubles as a breeding ground for insects and small vermin. Bacteria, weakened drywall, rotten wood, and damaged electrical lines are also a concern. Fortunately, our crawl space cleanup can help you repair an important part of your house before it gets worse.
Nevada Water and Fire Restoration certified technicians offer 24/7 emergency service for crawl space cleanup and drying. Give us a call today at 775-856-6666.
Crawl Space Cleanup and Dryout Steps
Step 1
The first step of crawl space cleanup is to remove all wet materials and personal belongings from the space. We use sump pumps to remove any standing water, and negative air movers to suck out remaining moisture from the crawl space back into the environment.
Step 2
Next we inspect the vapor barrier, a thick, plastic liner which sits on top of the dirt to keep the moisture in the ground and not in your crawl space. This can be damaged in the event of a flood and might require replacement.
Step 3
After the area has dried, we spray everything down with an anti-microbial spray to prevent growth and further contamination.
