Why crawl spaces get damp around Heiskell
Wood framing that stays above roughly 20 percent moisture content for long periods can grow mold and, over time, start to decay. Heiskell is in East Tennessee, where long, humid summers and mild but damp winters keep moisture levels high for much of the year. Many wet crawl spaces start outside, where poor grading, short downspouts or hillside runoff push water toward the foundation until it finds a way in. A sealed access door and sealed vents keep outside air from re-entering the space, so the liner and foam can do their work.
