Converted outbuildings get assessed as what they are
A converted garage or barn is not a house and does not behave like one. We assess the actual assembly — insulation, vapour control, ventilation — instead of applying a residential template to it.

Straban Township runs east and northeast of Gettysburg and takes in a wide mix — working farm properties, older homes along the Route 30 corridor, and newer residential pockets. Agricultural outbuildings and converted spaces come up here more than they do elsewhere in the county, and they bring their own problems: slab-on-grade construction with no vapour barrier, uninsulated masonry, and ventilation that was designed for equipment rather than people.
Where a barn, garage or outbuilding has been converted to living or office space, the most common finding is condensation rather than groundwater. Warm humid air meets a cold uninsulated surface, condenses on it, and feeds growth on whatever organic material happens to be in contact. The fix is usually insulation and ventilation rather than removal alone.
How We Work in Straban Township
Condensation and groundwater need different fixes
They look similar and they are not. Treating a condensation problem with drainage work, or a groundwater problem with a dehumidifier, wastes money and leaves the cause running.
Containment on occupied buildings
Where part of a building stays in use during the work, containment and negative air keep the working area separated from the part you are still living in.
Verification before we close up
Moisture readings return to normal for the building before anything gets reassembled — measured, not assumed from elapsed time.
