We are very happy with the job our Traverse City crew of Bryant, Gabe, Logan and Jarred did on our crawl space. Bryant kept us well informed of arrival and departure times, gave us frequent updates on their progress with lots of pictures. The crew jumped right in and started working immediately upon arrival. Bryant kept us informed of issues they ran into and how they could be fixed. The crew were always cheerful and polite. They did their job quickly and efficiently and finished up a day earlier than expected. I would not hesitate to recommend FSM to anyone with crawl space issues.

Hunter K, Logan D and Theo F were very professional and did a great job re-enforcing the walls of my crawl space and treating the spots of mold that were down there. They also put some more encapsulating material down where there could be water entering.

FSM came out today. They sent Taj, a service tech from the Traverse City office. Taj did a thorough review of the crawlspace at my cottage and found several structural issues that I needed to address. He showed me pictures of the areas of concern and explained the necessary solutions. Taj was GREAT and explained what needed to be done to correct these concerns. What a breath of fresh air, Taj was and an asset to FSM. I feel confident with the work that needs to be done after being explained & would recommend FSM.

We met James at a recent home show and he was very personable and professional. He answered all our questions and conducted a thorough inspection of our foundation needs. We are retired and on fixed incomes. He was not pushy, looking only to make "the sale." We recommend James and FSM.

The crew arrived promptly this morning led by Hunter the Foreman and crew members Dalton and Dawson. They covered the walls and floors leading to the crawl and were extremely neat and conscientious. They answered our questions, showed and explained the results of their skillful work, all delivered exactly as contracted. They cleaned up the crawl floor, even areas we had on our “to do list”! SO IMPRESSED! We must include Zachary, our Sales Rep, who developed the solution initially, came out a week beforehand at our request to make sure we had prepared the exterior as needed. HIGHLY recommend FSM, now Groundworks of Traverse City.

Tim H. did a thorough job servicing the sump system and dehumidifier in our crawlspace. He also inspected the area in the crawlspace underneath where I noticed some differences in the floor. He found a couple issues and gave me a list of suggestions and prices if I decided to repair. Even took the time to say Hi to one of my anxious dogs which goes a long way with her socialization. Great experience
Foundation Experts in Traverse City
Homeowners like you in Traverse City, MI, are used to sun, sand and beautiful lakes. However, when your basement or crawl space turns into a lake, the result is far less enjoyable.
Located near some of Michigan’s most beautiful waterways, Traverse City and the surrounding areas of Cheboygan, Cadillac, and Mackinaw City have more than just lake water to contend with. Their year-round precipitation, heavy snow melt, and high humid summers cause moisture in your basement or crawl space.
The constant water vapor in Traverse City causes musty smells during the summer months, and cold, drafty floors in the winter. These concerns make crawl spaces a less than desirable foundation type in Northern Michigan. If unwanted moisture is left untreated, it often leads to uneven floors and sagging foundations. Sometimes problem signs are noticed after the damage is done, so it’s good to periodically take a look and assess the situation regardless of problem signs.
Traverse City’s sandy soil is good for drainage, but even the best soil can’t keep water out of your foundation when the saturation level is especially high.
If it sounds all too familiar, you’re not alone. Many in the Traverse City area feel your frustration and know that FSM is here to help with foundation repair, basement waterproofing, and crawl space repair.
