Blocked air bricks can cause damp and damage to your crawl space.
Air bricks being blocked prevent proper airflow into your crawl space, which can lead to moisture build up which can then lead to damp, rot, mould and decay under your floor.
Air bricks can be blocked by:
• Leaves, soil or dirt
• Small insects or pets that build nests
• Historic building materials blocking the vents
Regular maintenance is one of the best ways to ensure your air bricks have airflow and ensure your crawl space is well ventilated.
