In our humid climate, the crawl space shapes the comfort of your floors and the air in your home. Here is what to know.
Many Middle Tennessee homes sit on crawl spaces. When they are open to humid summer air, they collect moisture, grow mold on wood and send damp, musty air into the living space through gaps in the floor. Cold floors in winter are another sign.
The best fix is usually to treat the crawl space as part of the house: control the water, cover the ground with a sealed barrier, close the vents and insulate the walls or the floor in a way that keeps the space dry. We explain the options and choose the one that suits your foundation and your budget.
