"Troy Wilson came out to my house to look at something in my basement that I have had issues with since the basement system was put in. The guy who came and did my inspection 2 years ago told me this was not covered under the life time warranty they provide. I thought that was ridiculous. But I had to live with it. Irritated with them now, Troy came out this year and said "yeah I'm going to fix that for you. It's covered under the warranty." FANTASTIC!!!!! I am thankful for Troy coming out and being professional and no bullshit crap. No excuses just fixed it. Super happy with him. Thanks again."

Types of Crawl Space Damage in Ashtabula

Common Causes of your Crawl Space Problems in Ashtabula

Have you been noticing uneven floors or moisture build-up in your crawl space? The unique conditions in and around Ashtabula can significantly impact the vitality of your home's crawl space. Local homes often contend with moisture challenges due to the area's dynamic soil and climate conditions. Seasonal moisture changes can cause the soil to expand and contract, which is known as soil heave. This can create pressure against foundation walls and can lead to damage over time.

When soil shifts, it can cause the crawl space to settle unevenly. This often results in visible warning signs like sticking doors or gaps in the trim. Additionally, Ashtabula's proximity to Lake Erie means higher humidity levels, which can lead to excess moisture accumulation in crawl spaces. Left unaddressed, these conditions often lead to structural complications, mold growth, or water damage. Early detection of issues such as cracks in the walls or pooling water in your crawl space can prevent more severe problems down the line, safeguarding your home's foundation and overall structural integrity.
