Confined Spaces Present Unique Obstacles for Extraction and Drying 

When the crawl space becomes affected by burst pipes or flooding, direct action is necessary to resolve the situation. Allowing standing water to go unchallenged and unresolved beneath the main floor of the house can welcome secondary effects like mold growth and structural weakening from prolonged moisture exposures.

Water Removal Services for Confined Space

With water damage in East Brunswick happening in many ways, there is no one set path for damage to your crawlspace. Natural flooding can occur with little warning and have devastating effects on the structure, but much of the plumbing network hub exists in the crawlspace for accessibility. Removing any standing water or pooling requires careful consideration to reach the distance and fit into the space. Truck mount extractors can offer a long intake distance, allowing SERVPRO professionals to bring hoses where they are necessary under the house for extraction.

Necessary Drying Options for Crawl Spaces 

Drying is also a complicated issue in terms of space and accessibility. Low-profile air movers and similar units can circulate warm air to promote evaporation. Sealing off the area can help to better regulate optimal drying conditions with:

• Centrifugal Air Movers
• Axial Air Movers
• Portable Heaters
• Desiccant Dehumidifiers 

Wet crawl spaces are more common to area homes than you think, and they can be a hazard when not resolved. Our SERVPRO of East Brunswick / Princeton Meadows team can help when you call (732) 432-9800.
