The space under your floor is, without a doubt, a scary place that nobody wants to even think about. Unfortunately, ignorance is not bliss when it comes to the crawl space because it affects the air quality that comes into your house. If the crawl space is dusty and smelly, 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 regularly:
The quality of air that comes into your house can affect the health of every member of the family, especially those who have allergies. If you notice sudden asthma symptoms, sneezing and wheezing, blocked chest, watery eyes, and bronchitis, the crawl space 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 crawlspace and attic.
Rodents and other sneaky pests find the crawl space to be the perfect hide-out to sleep and procreate. With time, some rodents will die and emit a horrible smell that will come up 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 crawl space back is to have professional exterminators who will kill them, clean up the crawl space and do some rodent 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 so you can have a clean and dry place.
The crawlspace is the perfect place to pass wires and pipes, especially for plumbing and electrical fixtures. If the crawl 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 crawl spaces play an essential role in energy efficiency. If the insulation in those two areas is poorly done or damaged, the HVAC unit will have to work overtime to compensate, so you have a comfortable home environment. Unfortunately, most people don’t give a second thought about their crawl space insulation once they move in because it’s a scary and unpleasant space. A dirty 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. It is imperative that you have the crawl space cleaned regularly so the HVAC can have a break and the structural integrity of the house is not compromised.
Crawlspace 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 do the cleanup yourself in the name of saving 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.
Most people don’t take pleasure in the thought of cleaning a crawl space. Mold, debris, standing water, and rodent infestations are enough to shock homeowners. If you notice declining air quality or poor energy efficiency, or if you recently suffered from a water leak, you need professional crawl space cleaning ASAP. It’s not recommended to do the job on your own. Contaminated and dirty crawl spaces are best left to the professionals.
