Crawl Space Cleanup & Waterproofing

CRAWL SPACE WATERPROOFING SERVICES IN KANSAS CITY

Regardless of whether you live in Kansas City, Missouri, or anywhere else in the world, if your home has a crawl space, it’s likely that it’s an inhospitable part of your property. But Kansas City Clean Air can remedy that situation for you, making your crawl space clean and dry. Many homes have basements or cellars dug under them. Those that don’t usually have a crawl space, since sitting a home directly on the ground would cause it to rot and shift. These crawl spaces may be anywhere from 18 inches to several feet high — just big enough to crawl in.

Because they are dark and damp and have an earthen floor, they are usually home to many critters we consider our enemies: rodents, possums, raccoons, skunks, snakes, spiders and more. Just as bad, this cool, damp, dark climate is perfect for growing mold — a dangerous toxin that could harm your family’s health.

You or your building contractor may have attempted to insulate your crawl space against critters and outside air. But over time, without proper waterproofing, insulation often becomes wet, moldy and may start to separate from the floor.

Entering such an area can be dangerous, especially if there is standing water, since it is likely some of your electrical wiring is run along the base of your home. All these hazards make it hard — if not impossible — for service personnel to do maintenance or make repairs on your home.
