    Controlling Moisture in Your Olympia Crawlspace

    Controlling Moisture in Your Olympia Crawlspace

    In Olympia, damp crawlspaces are a widespread issue. Up to 50% of the air on your first floor comes directly from your crawlspace, meaning a moldy, wet crawlspace directly impacts your family's health.

    Signs of Crawlspace Moisture

    • Buckling or cupping hardwood floors on the first level
    • Musty odors in the home
    • Increased heating and cooling bills
    • Visible condensation on windows

    Solutions

    Proper vapor barriers, encapsulation, and sometimes the installation of a crawlspace dehumidifier are necessary to keep moisture levels below the threshold where mold can grow.
