Fortunately, the foundation, basement, and crawl space repair professionals at Foundation 360 offer crawl space repair in Livonia, MI, and the surrounding area.

Causes of Crawl Space Damage in Livonia, MI

Moisture is the biggest threat to your Livonia home’s crawl space. When crawl spaces aren’t adequately sealed and insulated, moisture will find its way in, and over time, it will begin to damage the walls and footings.

Here are a few of the biggest issues related to crawl spaces and moisture.

Burst Pipes

If you’ve ever had a pipe burst in your Wayne County home during the winter, you know full well it can create one big mess. Aside from the cost of repairing the pipe, you also may need to pay for new flooring, carpets, or furniture, depending on the damage.

Unfortunately, burst pipes in your crawl space can often go unnoticed because crawl spaces aren’t easily accessible or an area of your home you visit often. Some of the signs of a burst pipe in your crawl space include:

  • A decrease in water pressure
  • High water bill
  • The water isn’t coming out clear
  • The plumbing system makes weird sounds

If you notice any of these issues, contact Foundation Solutions 360 for an inspection of your crawl space.

Excess Moisture

If your crawl space isn’t properly sealed or insulated, water will find its way in, especially during heavy rains. This can lead to a host of problems, including mold growth and a breeding ground for pests.

Constant Freeze-Thaw Cycle

Michigan weather is unpredictable – one day it can be mild and the next day it’s freezing. If water is present in the crawl space and is constantly expanding and contracting, this can cause significant damage to your walls and footings, as they will eventually become compromised during the freeze-thaw cycle.

If you notice any of these issues and you need crawl space repair in Wayne County, contact Foundation Solutions 360.

Crawl Space Repair Services in Livonia, MI

As experts in crawl space repair in Livonia, MI, and across Michigan, you can count on our team to provide a repair that is specific to your home’s individual needs, no matter how big or small the issue is.

Our crawl space repair services include:

Crawl Space Power Posts

If your floors are cracking, you notice cracks in the drywall, or windows and doors won’t shut or open properly, then your crawl space could be structurally compromised.

One option – albeit a temporary and less-effective one – is buying a jack at a local hardware store.

The best option, though, is hiring Foundation Solutions 360 to install power posts under your Livonia, MI, home. Power posts are manufactured with adjustable steel columns and installed on concrete pads. Power posts are a permanent solution compared to store-bought jacks and offer a much higher weight capacity.

Crawl Space Encapsulation

Crawl space encapsulation is the ideal solution to completely seal your entire crawl space to prevent moisture, bugs, and vermin from entering the space. We’ve performed crawl space encapsulation in thousands of Wayne County homes.

Our process includes removing water-soaked debris or insulation and then smoothing the ground for an even, consistent grade.

The next step is optional, but we highly recommend it. We can install insulation on the outside walls and close off outside vents, if desired. Next, we install zero-permeable liners on the outside walls to protect the area from moisture.

Finally, we install a watertight liner to keep out moisture, and then seal lock around all piping.
