Taylor MI Crawlspace Encapsulation – Rotten Floors and Mold
This job was a crawlspace encapsulation on Beech Daly Rd. in Taylor MI. We were able to repair the rotted floor and joists as well as encapsulate the crawlspace. Because of this, we ensured that additional mold and mildew was prevented going forward.
The crawlspace under this home was never inspected prior to the purchase. When the new homeowner moved in, she started to notice a foul odor and her kitchen floors were soft and not level. She knew something needed to be done so she called us for a free inspection.
After a thorough inspection by one of our crawlspace specialist, it was discovered that the floor had rotted and the humidity had caused mold growth. Unfortunately, the customer’s daughter suffers from respiratory issues so we wanted to make sure her crawlspace was completely sealed to provide a healthy environment.
Over 50% of the air in your home comes from your crawlspace. When water makes its way into your home, it can damage your crawlspace and open up many potential health hazards.
Crawlspaces that are not encapsulated generally have excessive humidity. The high moisture levels allow mold and mildew to thrive, increasing problems with respiratory issues. At Foundation Restoration, we specialize in keeping crawlspaces dry and provide a safe and healthy home for you and your family.
When mold takes over your crawlspace, it releases toxic spores that are pulled from your crawlspace into the living space. Your lungs aren't designed to intake these spores and when exposed over long periods of time they can lead to long-term health problems.

In the end, the customer was very satisfied with the quality of the encapsulation and floor repair done in her crawlspace. She also left us a review on Google, speaking about our professionalism and the wonderful job we had done. The customer's daughter also hand drew a few thank you cards showing how happy she was that her home was fixed.
