Moisture Control for Hampton Roads Homes

Moisture Control for Hampton Roads Homes

Just 48 hours of continuous moisture can allow wood-destroying fungi to form in the crawl space or basement of your home, causing structural weakening in a very short period of time. In Hampton Roads' humid climate, moisture problems are extremely common – and without proper treatment and mitigation, they can rapidly decrease your home's value and structural integrity.

Our Moisture Mitigation Approach

Our approach is always holistic – we look for ways to eliminate the root cause, not just treat the symptoms. Because we are both certified pest management technicians and licensed contractors, we handle treatment and repair under one roof. Our moisture mitigation services may include:

• Adequate ventilation in crawl spaces with proper vent placement or timed fan systems
• Poly moisture barrier (vapor barrier) installation in crawl spaces
• Ensuring wood is not in direct contact with the ground, using piers and posts set in concrete footers
• Correction of plumbing leaks
• Installation of sump pumps, French drains, or sand to eliminate standing water
• Repair of existing moisture-damaged wood
• Treatment of wood-destroying fungi
• Installation of dehumidifiers to control moisture content
