Crawl Space Inspections in Kings Bay
Why Kings Bay homes need this, and how we do it
Kings Bay wraps around the Navy base near the St. Marys River and the marsh, on low ground where the water table runs very high and salt air rides in off the water. That combination keeps a crawl space humid and works on metal hardware and fasteners, so we come out to measure the moisture and look closely at the supports.
A technician reads the subfloor, joists and girders for moisture, logs the humidity and temperature, and checks every post, pier and girder for rot, crushing, corrosion or movement. We note any existing vapor barrier, drainage or sump, then review the vents, grading and downspouts outside.
Photos of every problem area go into a written report with prioritized repairs and fixed pricing. On salt-air ground the report often flags corroding hardware alongside the moisture readings, and the whole inspection is free with no obligation.

Questions Kings Bay homeowners ask us
We're right by the sub base where the water table's really high, is my crawl staying wet?
A very high water table near the base tends to keep a crawl damp or wet, so we check for standing water and rot. The inspection is free with a written report and photos.
The marsh is right at our edge, could tidal moisture be getting under the house?
Marsh-edge homes often take on damp soil or water underneath, and we review drainage and any barrier. It's a free visit with a written report and fixed pricing.
It always feels swampy under our place near Kings Bay, is that normal for out here?
That swampy feel comes with the high water table, but it can still drive rot and mold worth addressing. We log the moisture and humidity and give you a free written report.
Could all this ground moisture be why the floor feels soft in a couple rooms?
Soft floors often mean moisture has gotten into the joists below, which we check closely. You get a free inspection and a written report with photos and fixed pricing.
What's involved when y'all come out to inspect a crawl near the base?
We get under the house, take moisture readings, log humidity, check piers and posts for rot, and review your drainage. It all goes into a free written report with photos.
“Our floors had gotten soft and the whole downstairs smelled musty. They inspected the crawl space, showed us photos of the rot and moisture, and fully encapsulated it. The smell is gone, the floors feel solid, and our humidity finally stays under control.”
