Protect the Value of your Fuquay Varina Home
Fuquay Varina, NC was a town built on the fame of the original Fuquay Springs, known far and wide for the healing power of its waters. While this delightful suburb of Raleigh was originally lauded for what bubbled up out of the ground, today’s Fuquay Varina homeowners need to keep a wary eye on what may be seeping into the space under their homes: excess moisture which can lead to a host of problems, or dangerous Radon gas which can negatively affect your health. Thankfully, Live Green Inc. services all of the Fuquay Varina area with our trusted crawl space encapsulation and moisture control solutions. Our commitment to quality work and exceptional customer service has made us the go-to company for Triangle area homeowners who want a healthier, more energy-efficient home environment.

Why is a Sealed Crawl Space Important?
Fuquay Varina is a vibrant, family-friendly community where residents enjoy a temperate climate for much of the year, and lush yards and wooded areas thanks to our region’s annual rainfall. Combine our diverse weather conditions with our North Carolina humidity and sometimes moist conditions can lead to problems under your home.That’s why making sure your crawl space is properly protected is so important for Fuquay Varina homeowners. Moisture can seep into the crawl space through the foundation or from the ground itself, which creates a breeding ground for mold and mildew. Additionally, some homes in our area have issues with toxic Radon- an odorless, colorless gas that originates from the breakdown of uranium in the soil, so can seep into your crawl spaces from the dirt floor beneath your home. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers, so you do not want to run the risk of ignoring what could be a potential problem.
Signs that your home has a Damp Crawl Space:
How do you know if there’s a moisture problem under your Fuquay Varina home? Here are some signs to look for:
- Musty Odors: Do you notice a persistent musty smell in your home, particularly near carpets on the ground floor?
