Crawl Space Vapor Barrier Installation

How to fix moisture problems in your home’s crawl space.

Even though the areas we live in, Colorado, Wyoming and New Mexico are considered drier climates, older homes with crawlspaces can still have problematic moisture problems. Older homes were built with a crawl space to circulate fresh air. These crawl spaces usually have vents to bring in fresh air from the outside. Unfortunately, these vents don’t work well and the moisture from the ground under and around your home evaporates and causes water vapor in your home’s crawl space. When water vapor and wood mix, it can often cause problems for your home in the form of wood rot, mold, termites, and fungi. Unfortunately, many people don’t even realize they have a moisture problem in their crawl space until the damage is done to their home.

Here are a few signs that you may have a moisture issue in your crawl space:

  • Odors that include stinky, wet smells or musty, moldy smells
  • Hardwood floors that are warping or cupping at the edges
  • Drafty rooms with cold floors
  • Damp carpet
  • Mold & Mildew (look around your baseboards)
  • Wood rot
  • Floor failure
  • Insects, such as termites
  • Dust mites
  • Health issues such as bad allergies and illness from mold/mildew
  • Poor storage environment
  • Poor indoor air quality

If you’re experiencing any of the above signs, chances are you have a moisture problem in your crawl space.
