Water can enter a crawl space through different areas of the foundation and some areas accumulate more water than others, so it is important to see exactly where and how a water management solution and sump pump needs to be placed to prevent any further water accumulation. Water can enter a crawl space from through or under the foundation, from poor grading outside of foundation, and high water tables.
It is important to take care of any water accumulation in the crawl space and the water attracts pests and allows for excess moisture. Every home and property is different, so a thorough inspection is important to see if the water accumulation should be addressed from inside the crawl space or an exterior solution. We also provide exterior french drain solutions for standing water on your property.

To address water penetration throughout the crawl space, a perimeter drainage system needs to be installed to catch the water coming in and directing the water to a sump pump. This solution is the best solution because the existing water is being caught right away before it accumulates throughout the crawl space. The most important part is the excavation and installation of the pipe, to make sure it is properly designed to take the water exactly where you want it.
