Stopping Mold & Moisture at the Source
Norfolk, VA
Innovative Patented Floodproofing Solutions Make HOME MECHANIX Your Norfolk, VA, Contractor for Crawl Space Repairs
Crawl Space flooding in Norfolk and all of Hampton Roads is a persistent problem for homeowners. Nor’easters, heavy rain seasons, and shallow soil depths keep crawl spaces in our region soggy, moldy, and unhealthy. With 10 years of FEMA flood compliance experience, 100 miles of French drains, and a patent on the Floating Moisture Barrier System, HOME MECHANIX understands crawl space fluid dynamics and has the experience to correct your crawl space moisture-related issues.
HOME MECHANIX Flood Innovations Offers Crawl Space Resilience
Rainbombs do not ask permission to enter your crawl space. Heavy Rains often overwhelm sump pumps, and encapsulation tape seams fail under hydrostatic pressures. HOME MECHANIX Floating Moisture Barrier System accommodates groundwater intrusions up to 12″, on average, even in FEMA flood zones. Rainbombs come and go, your moisture barrier no longer has to. The next time your crawl space needs repair due to water damage, consider the Floating Moisture Barrier System for your crawl space.

How is HOME MECHANIX Approach Different? We Fix The Cause, Not the Effect!
Crawl space science is simple, and homeowners are smart enough to understand that crawl space air DOES NOT produce moisture; it holds it. If you have issues with excessive moisture in your crawl space, it’s likely because you have a source of water that’s contributing to the high relative humidity. HOME MECHANIX repairs considers the source and corrects the root of the problems with proper proven solutions.
Preventing water from getting under your house with French drains or gutter downspout reroutes is best; however, that is not enough, and other solutions are needed in most cases. If you need a crawl space drainage system with a sump pump or a crawl space encapsulation with a dehumidifier, HOME MECHANIX understands crawl space floodproofing and will guarantee the right fix.
The Crawl Space is the Interior of Your House
The out-of-sight, out-of-mind attitude has been one of the biggest problems the crawl space has to face. The industry has labeled ‘the customer’ as the biggest problem the crawl has.
Unfortunately, this has proven true from our own research. Contractors know that and often trash the crawl space, knowing that no one checks behind them. HOME MECHANIX has developed a crawl space inspection service that is unique and holds all who enter accountable. Call us today to better understand our Crawl Space Care Agreement and sign up to have your crawl space professionally monitored.
