Storm Damage in an Oklahoma City Property
Flooding is a common occurrence that requires fast action to mitigate the damages caused by the water. This crawl space was ready for typical water intrusion with the installation of a poly sheeting vapor barrier. The pooling water can readily be removed with sump pumps and other extractors while leaving the underlying soil not overly saturated from the storm water. SERVPRO advised the homeowner to have a permanent dehumidifier installed in this enclosed space to not only reduce the water vapor content but also to improve the air quality of the house above this wooden foundation. Proper RH helps maintain a crawl space relatively free of vermin, insects, termites, and mold.
