Crawl Space Solutions

In our area, there are many homes that were built with crawl space areas instead of basements. As long as there have been crawl spaces, these were created with vents to the outside where were intended to help air flow into the area and keep it dry. Unfortunately, the opposite is usually what happens. The vents allow water to enter the space during rain and snow storms and then it never leaves which causes the humidity levels to stay high which can facilitate the growth of mildew. We have found that up to ½ of the air in your home can come up through the crawl space so ensuring this area is closed off from the weather and controlling excess humidity will improve the overall air quality in your home.

Our team has been enclosing crawl spaces as long as we have been in business and we know the proper way to seal them off and control the humidity. This is done using a process known as encapsulation which is the installation of a heavy duty liner, occasionally installed with insulation products, and are sturdy plastic and vinyl sheeting as well as covers to close off existing vents and a heavy duty door that will close off the area totally and prevent any excess moisture from entering. Closing the area will also prevent pests and animals from moving in the crawl space which will help keep any items there safe and allow you to use it for storage. After your crawl space is closed off, if you need it we will install a series of floor jacks to stabilize sagging floors in your home.

Structural Foundation Repair

Your foundation is easily one of, if not the, most important parts. It not only supports the home itself but it also is the basement walls. If you have any foundation problems, they will generally present themselves in the form of diagonal cracks in your brickwork, horizontal cracks that run along the foundation or along the basement walls. You may also notice that your windows and doors will get stuck or even cracks at the corners of them. While these problems may not seem serious at first, they are all indicators of a sinking or settling foundation which should be looked at by a professional for specific problems to determine if a repair needs to be in place.

It is good that many foundation problems stem from similar issues and our professionals are very good at tracking down these issues. We can implement a repair solution that is for your specific problem to permanently repair and stabilize the foundation. If there is a settling foundation, we will implement a series of foundation piers to correct the problem. We will install either push piers or helical piers, depending on where and how bad the sinking is. Both types of piers are very strong and can help stabilize your foundation.
