Crawl Space Vapor Barrier in Arkansas

Crawl Space Solutions of Arkansas fixes crawl space in Arkansas.

A rotting crawl space is an expensive, frustrating, and unhealthy problem that will only gets worse. If your home has a damp, moldy, rotting crawl space, the best time to fix it is right away.

In theory, vented crawl spaces sound like a great idea. Opening up vents to the outside air creates a crosswind that can circulate air and remove moisture trapped there. However, despite this supposed solution, it's clear that crawl spaces nationwide are suffering from rot, decay, and mold.
How can this be? Instead of moving in one window and passing out the other, the hot air of summer instead flows into the crawl space, cools, and passes upwards and through the home. The humidity trapped within this air is deposited on surfaces in the crawl space, saturating organic material and wood and allowing mold to form.

Wet Crawl Space

When wet wood and other organic materials have mold established on them, they become significantly damaged, and the air is filled with tens of thousands of spores. These spores combine with many other allergens and flow upwards with the humidity into the home, where they become part of the household air.

Sooner or later, the crawl space rots, repairs will need to be done in houses of Arkansas. However, if you wait for the crawl space to be a moldy, smelly, rodent-infested space, you're in for a hard time. Finding a contractor willing to make his way into to the unhealthy, allergen-filled space, rip out the moldy boards, and drag in new ones to install in the cramped area won't be an easy task. At the very least, it's not going to be cheap! And ultimately, if the crawl space vents that allowed the moisture in initially aren't sealed, the problem will just repeat itself.

Even when the hot, humid summer air isn't present, crawl space vents are a problem. While a crawl space will no longer suffer from humidity, unwanted cold air will still be allowed in. This cold will flow through the space, cooling the water heaters, heating ducts and hot water pipes and ultimately making the area most costly as it struggles to maintain the proper temperatures.
