The most common call we get after heavy rains is homeowners who have water in their crawlspace.  A crawl space should not take on water or be damp and needs to be addressed quickly.  A wet crawl space can lead to mold and musty odors.  

A homeowner can get water in their crawlspace from a number of different sources:

• ground water or rainwater that seeps into the crawlspace
• cracks in the foundation
• drainage tile issues
• gutter or downspout systems are not working properly
• sump pump failing

If you do have water in your crawlspace, it needs to be removed as soon as possible.  This will help ensure there is not mold growth.  The professionals at SERVPRO of Oak Lawn can help.  Call us today if you have water in your home (708)239-1444.
