Identifying issues with your crawl space in Fort Lauderdale, might be simpler than expected. You often don’t need to venture into this damp area to spot potential problems.
The state of your crawl space will guide whether it’s advisable to enter. If it’s accessible, watch for signs of moisture issues such as drooping insulation, condensation, mold growth, and wood decay. If it’s not safe to enter your crawl space, observable indicators in your living areas can also signal trouble below, including sagging floors, heightened humidity levels, persistent musty smells, and an uptick in pest presence. These signs suggest underlying issues with your crawl space. If you notice any of these symptoms, contact us to arrange a complimentary inspection.
Common Causes of Crawl Space Damage in Fort Lauderdale
While there are various reasons your crawl space might be damaged, environmental factors almost always play a role. A broken pipe can cause immediate issues, but the long-term damage often stems from Fort Lauderdale’s sandy soil and its 60 inches of annual rainfall. Initially, problems may be hidden beneath your floors, but due to the stack effect, they’ll soon spread throughout your home. This effect causes air to move upward into your living spaces. With Fort Lauderdale’s high humidity, this can make your home uncomfortably damp in no time. Additionally, overstressed floor joists could lead to problems if they’re not strong enough to bear your home’s weight.

Great experience. Our foreman Mike Oliver and his crew, Andrew and Bret were the best. Extremely knowledgeable, professional and incredibly kind. They walked me through the project. Showed me everything and even sent pictures of before and after for my records. All my cracks are taken care of. Even my doors all close on a click. Thanks to Alpha and these awesome guys I now feel safe in my home.

Would definitely recommend Alpha! I had a good bit of work done to the crawlspace of my home – five jacks, two sistered joists, and a drain system with sump pumps installed. From the start I felt really comfortable with Alpha. My salesperson, Zack Long, was excellent and so helpful with all the questions I had. The team followed up with me the week before the job started to let me know when they would arrive and to run over the specs. Keith, Miguel, and Jake could not have been more efficient throughout the whole install. Clean up was perfect and they added a few thoughtful touches that I really appreciated. Even more, since I had an electrician coming out the next day Keith and the team made sure the area where they’d be working was dry and clean so that part would go smoothly as well. I don’t think I could have asked for a better crew!Great experience start to finish. Thank you!
