What To Do Immediately
- Note the approximate time the moisture or flooding started, for your insurance claim
- Check the sump pump (if present) to see whether it is running, clogged, or has lost power
- Call a crawl space restoration professional as soon as possible
- Check with neighbors if a shared drainage or grading issue may be contributing to the moisture
- Run a portable fan near the crawl space access point if it is safe, to begin air circulation
What Not To Do
- Do not assume batt insulation can be saved once it has been soaked — it typically must be removed and replaced
- Do not run electrical equipment inside a crawl space that still has standing water
- Do not seal a vapor barrier over ground moisture without addressing the underlying water source first
- Do not attempt to dry a large crawl space with a single box fan alone — professional drying equipment moves far more air
