Pleasant, SC – The springtime tornadoes have already begun touching down in local areas, meaning homeowners may be in need of home repairs including their crawl space. Crawlspaces PLUS.com is encouraging locals to make repairs now before the weather worsens.
The tornado that touched down on April 16, 2011 tore apart foundations, uprooted trees and mobile homes, and tore off roof tiling. On average, South Carolina can expect anywhere between 15 and 28 tornadoes. The causes of these storms do vary throughout the year, but the importance of the condition of a homeowners’ crawl space remains equally important year round.
Crawlspaces PLUS.com specializes in crawl space repair and disaster restoration. These experts claim that an encapsulated crawl space prevents infestations, mold growth, water damage, and cleans the air. Eventually, the air from a crawl space makes its way into the rest of the home. In fact it’s estimated that nearly half of the air on the first floor originated in the crawl space.
Springtime tornadoes are the result of active cold fronts. Summertime tornadoes result from tropical cyclones passing by the area.
