"We had AFS come and give us a free quote. (All in all, we got 3 quotes, from 3 different companies. First quote was for $127k, 2nd quote: AFS quoted $58k - inclusive of a 10% off coupon received at time of quote, and 3rd quote: they said they couldn’t handle the job, we need to use AFS.) We had a pretty unique situation, where we were in the process of purchasing the home with the foundation issue, which AFS was kind enough (and patient enough) to make sure it worked out for us at a way later date! Once the day came for the work to start, the team, Alex, Kyre & John, arrived on time and all had a great disposition and enthusiastic attitudes! We were excited to see the process and they explained what they were doing along the way. They were very kind, well-mannered and did a fantastic job! They cleaned all their mess and even reseeded the area in which they dug, (which I wasn’t expecting that). Prior to their arrival, the cracks in our foundation were large enough I could stick my entire hand and arm through to outside! But upon completion, I can’t even fit a chopstick through it! They also encapsulated our entire crawlspace, including mold treatment and sump pumps and dehumidifiers. What was once a muddy crawlspace, that had eroded to the point of lowering FEET over time, with its own ecosystem growing, is now a usable, clean and safe crawlspace. The process is fascinating to watch and the end result is even better! The fact they offer a Lifetime Warranty for their work gives me the security I need to sleep at night, knowing my investment was well placed. So happy we chose AFS and even happier our home is fixed!"

Common Causes of your Crawl Space Problems in Chatsworth

Moisture and Humidity

Excess moisture and high humidity levels in the crawl space can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage. This often results from poor ventilation or water seepage.

Poor Drainage

Inadequate drainage systems can cause water to accumulate around the foundation, leading to water infiltration and increased moisture levels in the crawl space.

Open Crawl Space Vents

Open vents allow outside air and moisture to enter the crawl space, which can lead to condensation, mold growth, and pest infestations.

Foundation Cracks

Cracks in the foundation can compromise the structural integrity of your home by allowing water infiltration, which can lead to further deterioration and instability.

Plumbing Leaks

Leaks from plumbing systems can saturate the soil around the foundation, leading to erosion and weakening of the structure.

Understanding these common causes can help you take proactive measures to protect your crawl space and maintain the overall health of your home.
