How to Get Rid of Water Puddles in the Crawl Space | Ask the Expert

In this episode of “Ask the Expert”, Videon addresses a question from a customer in Hinesville, GA who is puzzled by the fact that water has been suddenly pooling in the crawl space under his home.

This can happen for many reasons such as settling of the soil, changes in the grading or the landscape. Regardless of the reason, it is very important according to Videon, to get it taken care of right away to avoid a myriad of other problems caused by excess moisture in the crawl space. These problems can eventually compromise the structural integrity of the home.

Lowcountry Basement Systems can solve this problem with a crawl space drainage system specifically designed for this purpose, and a powerful sump pump system that will get the water out and away from your crawl space. Crawl space sealing and a crawl space dehumidifier are often recommended to take care of other sources of moisture such as ground, outside air and condensation.
