THE HAVARD EXPERIENCE

Our Proven Process

01 ASSESS

Our certified technicians conduct a thorough inspection of your property, focusing on areas prone to high humidity such as basements, crawlspaces, and attics. We identify moisture-prone zones and check for signs of fungus, wood rot, and pest infestations linked to excess moisture.

02 DIAGNOSE

After the inspection, we assess the severity of the moisture issues and determine contributing factors, such as leaks, poor ventilation, or condensation. This evaluation helps us understand the specific conditions affecting your property.

03 PLAN

Based on our findings, we collaborate with you to develop a customized treatment plan that addresses your property’s unique needs and fits your budget. Common solutions include installing vapor barriers, enhancing ventilation, and applying fungicide treatments.

04 TREAT

Once the plan is finalized, we schedule a convenient time to implement the moisture control measures. This may involve installing vapor barriers, adding vents to improve air circulation, and applying fungicides to affected areas. If fungus is present, we safely remove contaminated materials to prevent further spread.

05 MONITOR

After treatment, we monitor the effectiveness of the implemented solutions through follow-up visits, ensuring that moisture levels are reduced and remain stable. We make necessary adjustments to maintain optimal conditions and prevent recurrence.

06 PREVENT

To prevent future moisture problems, we provide recommendations such as regular maintenance of gutters and downspouts, prompt repair of leaks, and maintaining proper ventilation. These proactive steps help safeguard your property against moisture-related issues.

MUSTY ODORS

A persistent damp or mildewy smell in your home or business is often the first sign of excess moisture. This odor typically develops in basements, crawl spaces, and poorly ventilated areas where moisture lingers.

FUNGUS

Fungus thrives in damp environments, appearing as black, green, or white spots on walls, ceilings, floors, and even furniture.

WARPED WOOD OR PEELING PAINT

Excess moisture can cause wood to swell, warp, or rot over time, weakening its structural integrity.

CONDENSATION BUILDUP

If you frequently see moisture accumulating on windows, pipes, or walls, it’s a sign that humidity levels in your home are too high.

PEST INFESTATIONS

Many pests, including termites, cockroaches, and silverfish, thrive in damp environments. Moisture attracts these pests by providing the ideal conditions for survival and reproduction.

SOFT OR ROTTING WOOD

When wood is exposed to prolonged moisture, it becomes weak, soft, and prone to decay. If you detect soft or decayed wood, it’s crucial to act quickly to eliminate the moisture source and prevent further deterioration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes moisture issues in crawl spaces?
Moisture control issues are usually caused by poor ventilation, or by blocked ventilation ducts. Our technicians will identify these problems for you as part of your treatment plan.
Do moisture issues attract termites?
Areas containing high humidity levels and damp or rotting wood attract subterranean termites. Damp wood is also easier for termites to burrow into. Because areas with moisture control issues are usually areas of the home that are not frequented on a regular basis, such as crawlspaces, an infestation may take hold easily.
What is brown rot and white rot?
Brown and white rot are classified as wood decay caused by fungi. Brown rot seems to attack coniferous wood types, such as pine which is a common building material. The decay pattern of brown rot is usually brown in coloration and has a crumbly texture. White rot tends to affect hardwoods and can make the wood appear bleached. White rot may cover an entire board, making it look bleached and stringy, or can affect small pockets of the wood.
