Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Muskegon, MI Crawl Space Humidity Problem

Our customer called after spending a long time dealing with excess humidity in the kitchen. Initially blaming it on a leaking dishwasher (and subsequently replacing the floors), he soon discovered that the problem went deeper. Naturally occurring ambient moisture and an unreliable crawl space access door both led to excess moisture in the crawl space, which seeped up through the floor and into the house. In addition to the CleanSpace vapor barrier system, an EverLast door helped protect this crawl space - and the house above it - from the humidity.
