Crawl Space Waterproofing in Indianapolis, Indiana

Waterproofing your crawl space can save Indiana homeowners money by preventing costly crawl space issues such as mold growth, wood rot, and foundation failure. Standing water in your crawl space can be caused by block seepage, or water coming up through the dirt crawl space floor. Any amount of standing water in your crawl space can cause problems. Not only can it cause musty, moldy smells in the living area, it can also cause crawl space wood damage and mold growth by creating very high levels of moisture in your crawl space. If your crawl space has fiberglass insulation, this moisture can be absorbed in the insulation and cause it to become heavy and fall. SwainCo. warranted crawl space drainage systems will permanently keep you crawl space dry. Our crawl space drainage systems are installed around the inside perimeter of the crawl space, and connected to a sump basin and sump pump. They are the most effective, permanent solution to standing water in your crawl space. If your crawl space has problems with standing water, call 317-294-5278 or click here for a free crawl space waterproofing inspection.

Crawl Space Drainage Systems in Indianapolis

Wet Crawl Space in Indianapolis
Due to the large amount of water that the Indianapolis area has seen in the last few weeks, many crawlspaces in Indianapolis are experiencing water problems. A flooded crawl space can cause major issues for an Indianapolis homeowner. Water in your crawl space is the number one cause for crawl space mold, crawl space wood damage, and possible crawl space foundation failure. During heavy periods of rain, a crawl space will typically get water seeping in the foundation walls or coming up through the ground as the water table raises. A sump basin and sump pump alone will help keep standing water in your crawl space down but will not eliminate it completely. To ensure your crawl space stays dry permanently, a full perimeter drainage system needs to be installed. A full perimeter crawl space drainage system will greatly reduce the chance of crawl space problems such as crawl space mold and crawl space wood damage. If your crawl space gets standing water or your unsure if your crawl space gets wet, call SwainCo. at 317-294-5278 for a free inspection and estimate on how to keep your crawl space problem free permanently.
