Elkhart Indiana Home Cleans Out CobWebs and Gets a New Crawls Space

 A dirty, musty Elkhart basement received an unwanted host of spiders in the crawl space. A 1970s home's unsealed crawl space was letting in water and unwanted pests, mainly spiders. Upon inspection, our systems specialist did not find mold but noticed a heavy smell of mildew, indicating there were cracks that needed to be sealed because insects and moisture were seeping in. The cracks were likely due to the home's unstable foundation. Helical piers were set in place (not pictured) to restore the home to a stable foundation. A vapor barrier was then installed in the crawl space to eliminate moisture and points of entry for spiders.
