Vapor Barrier Experts

Richwood, WV's Crawl Space Water Removal Team for Vapor Barriers and Sump Discharge

A crawl space problem usually announces itself indirectly — a musty smell upstairs, a spike in humidity, or a home inspection that turns up standing water no one knew was there.

We inspect the vapor barrier, sump discharge point, and vent placement to find the actual cause, not just remove the water.

The area surrounding the forks of the Cherry River has been populated since the late 1700s. During the 19th century, the area was a sparsely settled semi-wilderness of homesteads and subsistence farms. This changed in 1898 when a railroad was extended into the area, then known as Cherry Tree Bottoms. In 1901, the town was incorporated with its present name referencing the abundant hardwood forests in the area. Soon, the area possessed a large sawmill and the world's largest clothespin factory.
