What Peeling Paint and Sticking Doors Mean

This isn't a pretty picture. And odds are that if you have sticking doors and peeling paint in your home, what you're seeing ins't pretty either. 

Wetness and humidity below the home can create many problems, a few of which being sticking doors and windows and paint peeling off your walls and furniture. Water in a crawl space or in a basement moves up into the home itself and starts to deform wood and "melt" paint. This situation often comes along with an uncomfortable home to live in because of the noticable humidity on top of the structural decay.

The wetness can come from crawl spaces and basements alike. This said, unlined crawl spaces and unfinished basements are the most likely to allow the entrance of water vapor.

The way we can go about solving this issue is by installing different patetned waterproofing products to perfectly fit your needs. The WaterGuard French drain system, the TripleSafe sump pump system, and the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system are all common products that customers will this issue have installed to keep water out of the basement or crawl space completely. In terms of catching the water that is already in the air, we install different types of hyper-efficient dehumidifiers.
