What Causes Water in the Crawl Space?

The biggest causes of a damp crawl space are leaks, flooding and sewage backups. Since it’s underground, it is more likely to collect water as well. Also, water is more likely to be a problem if there is a dirt floor. Other common causes include:

  • Burst or leaky water pipes
  • Flooding from heavy rainstorms
  • Sewage backups failures
  • Water heater floods or leaks
  • Sump pump failures or backups
  • Foundation cracks or floor leaks

Regardless of the source, our local specialists will remove the water and repair the damage. They will inspect the damage, remove the water and restore your home.

What Are the Effects of a Wet or Flooded Crawl Space?

Most crawl spaces are unfinished, so you may not worry about the potential for damage. However, it can actually lead to some serious problems.

Since it serves as the foundation for your home, the biggest risk of water in your crawl space is structural damage. After enough time, it will cause wood beams to rot and eventually weaken foundation walls.

Aside from that, it can lead to mold as well. At first, this can cause smells or even allergies. However, mold will eventually do as much damage as the water itself.
