Symptoms
What you noticed, and what it usually means
Start here if something is off and you are not yet sure the crawlspace is the reason. Each page explains the mechanism honestly, including the times it turns out to be something else entirely.
Musty smell that will not leave
The smell returns every August no matter how much you clean. In a pre-war St. Pete bungalow it is often coming from under the floor, not from anything in the room.
Cupped floors, sweating ducts, high cooling bills
Three symptoms that look unrelated until you go under the house: floorboards cupping at the edges, ducts dripping, and summer power bills that do not match the square footage.
Water under the house after heavy rain
Somebody shines a light under the house after a storm and there is water sitting on the dirt. Where it came from matters more than how much of it there is.
Droppings, nesting, fallen insulation
Somebody looks under the house and finds droppings, torn insulation hanging out of the joists, and a century of debris on the dirt. The order you deal with it in matters.
Floors that give, bounce or slope
A floor that flexes when you walk across it, or a marble that always rolls the same way. What is happening underneath, and who is licensed to do something about it.
