Musty Crawlspace in Lake Oswego, OR

This customer called because he had a musty smell in his house that he couldn't get to go away. Upon further investigating, they discovered it was originating from beneath the house. So they gave us a call to have one of our inspectors come out and take a look at what was going on. Our inspector found sagging old fiberglass insulation with a torn vapor barrier. Water and debris had been getting in the crawlspace causing mud, dirt, and moisture damage to the posts and beams. The musty smell was moving up thru the house. We recommended doing a crawlspace encapsulation to prevent future water problems from happening. We cleaned out the crawlspace and sealed the vents, the crew then laid down our Terrablock that is a matting underneath the CleanSpace that completely seals in the crawlspace.
