Ramblers, Splits, and Capes
Silver Spring's post-war neighborhoods are packed with ramblers, split-levels, and Cape Cods — and nearly all of them sit on vented crawl spaces. These are straightforward, honest houses with straightforward crawl space problems: dirt, vents, damp, repeat. They also respond beautifully to encapsulation.
The Split-Level Wrinkle
Split-levels often have a crawl space under only part of the house, at a different height than the slab or basement section. The transitions between levels are leak points — and the crawl section is usually the dampest part of the house. We map the whole footprint and treat every section.
What We See Most Here
Shallow crawl spaces, often under three feet. Original construction debris still sitting there from the 1950s. Ductwork sweating through the summer. And homeowners surprised at how much better the house feels after the work — split-levels show the difference fast.
