Crawlspace Water Loss

Dripping water into crawlspace damage

This customer followed a slow, dripping leak from their kitchen into their crawlspace and found a much larger damage underneath the house. This leak had been running for quite some time and was soaking the insulation in the crawlspace directly under the kitchen. The water was shut off, and now it was time to track the leak source and then tearing out all the affected insulation so we could dry the structure underneath it. There was some mold detected underneath the insulation that needed to be mitigated as well. Since this was a multi-step project for us, it was important to test and check for any further damage underneath the house. The customer was starting to notice the moldy smell, which they caught early in the spore growth process.
