Q: Is it safe to live in a house with water damage?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not safe to live in a house with water damage until a trained professional gives you the all-clear to return. Mold can grow within one to two days after water damage and weaken your home&rsquo;s structural integrity. Always have your home inspected after water damage to ensure it&rsquo;s safe to live in.</p></div>

Q: Is a pier and beam the same as a crawl space?

• <div><p>Although the two terms are closely related and often used interchangeably, pier and beam foundations and crawl spaces are different things. A pier and beam foundation is made up of concrete piers and wooden beams and creates a space under the home known as a crawl space. There are several types of foundations that create crawl spaces, often collectively known as &ldquo;crawl space foundations,&rdquo; but the crawl space itself is separate from the foundation. </p></div>

Q: Should you run a dehumidifier in the basement all the time?

• <div><p>No, your basement dehumidifier doesn&rsquo;t need to be on 24/7. While it&rsquo;s an excellent tool for tackling damp, musty air, especially in humid seasons, leaving it running nonstop can backfire. Over-drying the space can mess with your sinuses, warp wood, and even crack certain materials. Instead, only use your humidifier when moisture levels rise above 50%, and then give it a break when the humidity levels drop.</p></div>

Q: What are the cost factors for the price of basement waterproofing?

• <div><p>Several factors can impact the cost of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/whats-return-investment-basement-waterproofing.htm">waterproofing your basement</a>. Some of the most common cost factors include:</p><ul><li><p>Location</p></li><li><p>Square footage</p></li><li><p>Cause of the water leak</p></li><li><p>Type of foundation</p></li><li><p>Accessibility</p></li><li><p>Waterproofing method</p></li><li><p>Materials</p></li><li><p>Contractor experience and availability</p></li><li><p>Engineering reports, if needed</p></li><li><p>Structural and other repairs</p></li><li><p>Permits </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can a damp basement affect upstairs?

• <div><p>Yes, the air from a damp basement can travel up into your living area through a process called the stack effect, so moisture, mold spores, and other debris in your basement air can all decrease your indoor air quality on your main floors. Additionally, damp basements can promote the rotting of building materials, which can damage flooring, insulation, and framing on your first floor in addition to materials in the basement. </p></div>
