Crawl Space Water Removal Services in Columbus

New insulation is fitted snugly between the joists and supported so it does not sag onto the crawl space floor.

Emergency Crawl Space Pump-Out

Fast pump-out protects joists, ductwork and the floors above from soaking any longer than necessary.

Crawl Space Mold Prevention

Keeping the crawl space dry long term, with a sound barrier and good drainage, is what keeps mold from returning.

Water sitting on top of the barrier is extracted, then the barrier is lifted so the soil underneath can be checked and dried.

Why Crawl Spaces Flood in Columbus

Drain tile around the foundation that is clogged or too small lets water build up.

HVAC Condensate Drain Overflow

Cracks in foundation walls and footings let water seep into the crawl space.

Poor Exterior Drainage and Grading

Ground that slopes toward the house sends rainwater into the crawl space.
