The space under your basement and floor is, without a doubt, a scary place nobody wants to even think about. Unfortunately, ignorance is not bliss in the crawl space because it affects the air quality in your house. If the space is dusty and smelly, contains water, or does not contain sanitary sewer pipes, you can be sure that the air that comes into your home will also contain dust and bad smells, leading to bad air quality and allergies.
Here are some of the reasons why it’s critical to maintain and clean up the crawl space under your house and basement regularly:
The quality of air that comes into your house can affect the health of every family member, especially those who have allergies. If you notice sudden asthma symptoms, sneezing, and wheezing, blocked chest, watery eyes, and bronchitis, the crawl space under your basement could be the culprit. Dusty air full of bacteria and viruses can cause diseases and trigger allergies, but this can be prevented by regularly cleaning the crawl space. Scheduling yearly cleaning inspections can also help prevent you from spending thousands of dollars on mold remediation.
Rodents and other sneaky pests find the crawl space the perfect hide-out to sleep and procreate. With time, some rodents will die and emit a horrible smell from your house. Worse still, the pest’s urine and feces damage the house’s structural integrity and encourage harmful bacteria that can cause diseases to your family. The only way to get rid of those rodents and have your space back is to have professional exterminators who will kill them, clean up the crawl space, and do some pest proofing.
The crawl space is very vulnerable to gaining moisture, especially if there is a water leak in the basement or around the house. Over time, the moisture will cause mold and mildew, rotten wood, fungi, and degraded insulation. You can prevent all these things by regularly cleaning and deodorizing the crawl space and ensuring no water gathering so you can have a clean and dry crawl space.
The crawlspace is perfect for passing wires and pipes, especially for plumbing and electrical fixtures. The crawl space should always have sanitary sewer pipes if they exist. A crawl space cleaning can be necessary to ensure a sanitary sewer function. If the space is full of dust, debris, and sagging insulation, these pipes will get stuck in the middle instead of passing through to the other side. You should be able to see the other side of your house when you look down through your crawl space, and if you cannot, it is time for a cleanup.
The attic and basement crawl spaces play an essential role in energy efficiency. If the insulation in those two areas is poorly done or damaged, the HVAC unit must work overtime to compensate so you have a comfortable home environment. Unfortunately, most people don’t think about their crawl space insulation once they move in because it’s a scary and unpleasant space. A dirty basement crawl space encourages rodents and other pests that mess up the insulation and also clog the air ducts, causing the air conditioner to work extra hard. You must have the crawl space cleaned regularly so the HVAC can have a break and the structural integrity of the house is not compromised.
Crawl space cleanup is no fun, but it is crucial for your family’s health and your home’s structural integrity. However, you should never try to clean up the space yourself to save money. Leave this task to the professionals at Attic Projects, who have the proper gear to protect themselves from animal attacks and bacteria and know what safety measures to take.
