Crawl Space Inspections in Nassauville
Why Nassauville homes need this, and how we do it
Nassauville sits on the tidal Nassau River off SR-107 southwest of Fernandina, on low oyster-and-marsh ground with a shallow water table. The community mixes old river cottages with newer homes, and the river damp works on all of them the same way, keeping the crawl space humid and rotting piers and posts from the base up. A free inspection reads the moisture and checks the supports for that rot before it reaches the floor above.
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. On this river-edge ground the shallow water table is often the story, so we note how far the damp has traveled up the wood, along with 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. Because river damp is what causes the rot here, the report pairs the moisture readings with plain notes on which supports are failing, and the inspection is free with no obligation to book the work.

Questions Nassauville homeowners ask us
Our Nassauville place is river-adjacent southwest of Fernandina with a high water table, is my crawl staying wet?
A high water table near the river 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.
We back up to the marsh out here, 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.
The floor feels soft in a couple rooms, is the water table rotting the joists?
A high water table drives moisture into the joists, which can rot them, so we check the wood closely. You get a free written report with the readings and photos.
Does being close to the river mean my crawl needs checking more often?
River-adjacent homes with a high water table benefit from a look every year or two to catch moisture early. We do the inspection and written report at no charge.
What's included in the free crawl check for a house near the river in Nassauville?
We take moisture readings, log humidity, check piers and posts for rot, and review your drainage and barrier. It all comes in a free written report with photos and fixed pricing.
“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.”
