Simpsonville, SC Crawlspace in Need of New Door Gets EverLast Door Installed

Crawlspace doors are an important part of a crawlspace although they are often overlooked by homeowners. While the entrance to a crawlspace is usually not the main source of moisture, it can certainly contribute to it. Not having the proper door, at the very least, will allow moisture and water vapor to make its way into the crawlspace. However, in a situation like heavy rains/flash flooding the water could actually rise high enough to get into the crawlspace. 

The entrance to this crawlspace was really not much of a door or barrier of any kind. It was essentially a wooden frame with some mesh wire attached to it. This meant that air, water, and just about anything else could flow straight through into the crawlspace. This was pretty much the first thing that our Specialist saw and knew that it was certainly going to be an issue. Fortunately, he had a great plan to take care of it!

The solution for this was to install an EverLast door, which is a huge improvement on the old door. The EverLast door ensures that an airtight seal is formed around the entrance when the door is closed. This keeps air from getting out, which also means that no water vapor or moisture is getting into the crawlspace this way. Another huge benefit of the EverLast door is that it is made completely of inorganic materials, which means that it will not rot out and mold cannot grow on it!
