Excessive Moisture Under a Home Can Lead to Major Structural Damage

VIRGINIA BEACH, VA, UNITED STATES, August 7, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Universal Pest & Termite Offers Solutions to Combat Extensive Moisture Damage Beneath Homes

Universal Pest & Termite, a leader in pest control and home preservation services is pleased to announce its comprehensive solutions for homeowners facing the detrimental effects of moisture damage beneath their homes. As many homeowners are unaware, unchecked moisture can lead to severe structural and health problems, but with the right interventions, these issues can be effectively managed.

Understanding the Threat of Moisture Damage

Excessive moisture under homes can cause significant damage to structural components, including wood rot, foundation instability, and mold growth. These issues not only compromise the safety and integrity of a home but can also lead to costly repairs if left untreated. Moist environments are also ideal breeding grounds for pests such as termites, further exacerbating the damage and posing additional risks.

The Solution: Dehumidifiers and Encapsulation Systems

Universal Pest & Termite offers a two-fold approach to address these challenges: the installation of dehumidifiers and encapsulation systems. This dynamic duo provides homeowners with an effective means of controlling moisture levels and safeguarding their homes against further damage.

Dehumidifiers: By removing excess moisture from the air, dehumidifiers create an environment that is less conducive to mold growth and pest infestation. This simple addition can significantly reduce humidity levels, helping to maintain a dry and safe crawl space. Inquire about the cost of installing a dehumidifier.

Encapsulation Systems: Encapsulation involves sealing the crawl space with a heavy-duty vapor barrier, preventing moisture from penetrating the area. This barrier, when paired with a dehumidifier, ensures a controlled environment, protecting the structural integrity of the home and improving indoor air quality.
