White Rock, BC
Crawl Space Water Damage in White Rock, BC
White Rock crawls are on the hill. Marine Drive buildings have parkades and slabs. A wet locker is not a crawl, and we will not call it one.
Hill houses hide a short crawl under the kitchen or the addition. The smell reaches the main floor. The suite towers do not have this hatch.
Short hill crawls
Access is tight. We pull wet batts, dry the joists, and meter the fir or plywood above. Original floors can cup if the crawl sat wet. We do not sand them during the dry-out.
Additions
The new wing has a crawl and the old house has a cellar or a slab. We dry the wet wing. We do not open the cellar unless it is wet too.
What the beach buildings need instead
A parkade leak is concrete and a membrane. Different crew notes, different building. If you are in a suite, this is the wrong service page.

Questions from this area
Crawl Space Flooding in White Rock: common questions
Our condo manager sent us this service. We are on Marine Drive. Is it a crawl?
Almost never. It is a suite ceiling or a parkade. We will switch the scope when we see the building.
The hill crawl is only two feet high. Can you still pull insulation?
Yes. It is slower. The batts still cannot stay wet.
Will the hardwood upstairs be replaced?
Only if it stays cupped after the crawl is dry. We decide that at the end, not on the first look.
