Find a home inspector you can trust with Carolina Shield Home Inspections
Unlike a full-size basement, the crawl space is easy to ignore. It's out of the way, and there aren't many reasons you would need to go in there. Not to mention how difficult it is to move in. And it can be downright terrifying. But neglecting the crawl space in your home maintenance schedule can cost you in the long run.
You might not realize it, but the crawl space in your home conceals some of the most critical systems in the house. A crawl space provides access to electrical wiring, ductwork, plumbing, and access to the structure itself. If any of these systems are deficient, the crawl space is likely where you'll catch the first signs.
You might notice the effects of some of these issues in your day-to-day life. You might notice your energy bills rising, higher levels of humidity, rodents, and so on. You could even have mold issues or structural failures that can only be seen inside the crawl space.
