Industry service warning!
The 80/20 coverage "Let the Ground Breathe" Lie
Homeowners are being sold the 80/20 coverage "the ground needs to breathe" lie . The vapor barrier is just rolled in between the rows of piers only & the contractors are not 'cutting the piers in'. The uncovered ground exposes timbers to high moisture levels inviting termites, wood rot, wood fungus, mold & dust mites to name only a few. Certain sectors of the industry are dishonest & are creating conditions that will allow for them to sell you poisonous treatments & contracts. See our section on 'the stack affect' to better understand the importance of keeping poisons out of your crawl space & your breathing environment.
Moisture Vapors from the Ground = Death
Think of it like this. Would you trust a doctor who owned the medicine company of the drug they are selling? Everyone, including the doctors, know that there is a lot more money in treatments than cures. Repair & prevention is the right approach.
Trust only professional, experienced & dedicated crawl space companies for repairs.
HOME MECHANIX will properly & professionally assess your house & advise in honesty.
