Historic Homes in Lincolnshire Need Modern Moisture Protection
Lincolnshire is one of Evansville’s most charming historic neighborhoods—but age brings hidden risks. Many homes here were built with vented crawl spaces or shallow basements, never intended to manage today’s humidity or water intrusion challenges. From warped floors to insulation breakdown and air quality issues, unseen moisture can slowly damage these legacy structures.
At Crawlspace and Basement Medic of Evansville, we preserve the character of your home while protecting it with modern, minimally invasive crawl space and basement waterproofing systems. We treat every historic home with precision, care, and long-lasting results.
Protect your health and your home.
Especially when your home holds decades of history.
