Moisture Damage Repair in Crawl Space in Bakersville, NC

Moisture in a crawl space can cause significant damage to floor joists over time. When moisture is present, it creates the perfect environment for mold, mildew, and wood rot to develop. These issues weaken the structural integrity of the joists, leading to sagging, warping, or even collapse.

To repair the damage, our team will first address the source of the moisture to prevent future issues. This may involve installing a vapor barrier, improving ventilation, or fixing any leaks. Once the moisture issue is resolved, we will assess the extent of the damage to the joists. Depending on the severity, we may sister new joists alongside the damaged ones, replace sections of the joists, or use structural supports to reinforce them. Our goal is to restore the stability and safety of the flooring system while preventing further damage.
