When Do You Have a Water Leak?

Water leak in the crawl space comes from the following sources:

Extreme Humidity

When the humidity level exceeds 50%, there are many problems with the crawl space can occur. If proper actions are not taken to preserve this space, mold can increase, and everyone in the house can get sick. Vents and cracks in the walls worsen the condition because these openings allow more moist air to enter the room. In addition, concrete is porous by nature. It may be the cause that moisture can penetrate the crawl space through the walls.

Pipelines leaks

Water supply, drain, and sewer pipes pass through the landing site. However, since this space is unprotected, these pipes can easily rupture without the user's knowledge. Sudden pipe rupture can cause flooding, and sewer rupture can cause serious health problems.

Flood

Heavy rains can cause water to collect on driveways, lawns, or around homes in rainy months. The drainage system may not be able to handle large amounts of water. It allows excess moisture to enter the crawl space.
