Crawl space cleanout and debris removal that clears old insulation, trash, wood scraps and animal waste so the space can be inspected, treated and sealed properly.
Crawl spaces collect things that should not be there: torn insulation, building scraps, old ducts, trash and sometimes animal waste. These piles hide moisture, feed pests and block anyone trying to inspect. A cleanout is the first step to any real repair. It is not glamorous work, and it often turns up the real source of an odor or a draft. Many Nashville crawl spaces have not been cleared since the house was built, and a fresh start makes everything after it work better.
We enter in protective gear and photograph the space before we begin. We remove old insulation, wood scraps, plastic and other debris in bags, and we clean up animal droppings and nesting material with proper precautions. We check for hidden leaks, dead animals and damaged ducts as we go. When we find pest problems or serious damage we point them out and suggest the right specialist. We leave the floor clear and the framing open so inspection, a vapor barrier, encapsulation or drainage work can follow.
Debris traps moisture and hides problems, so it comes out first.
