When Chris M. of Jacksonville, FL noticed soft, uneven floors and a musty odor throughout his home, he reached out for a permanent solution. The culprit? A damp, poorly supported crawl space.
In the before photo, you can see signs of long-term moisture intrusion, including staining on the vapor barrier and bowing walls. These conditions can lead to structural issues, wood rot, and poor air quality.
