Methods of Fixing Crawl Space Problems

Crawl space professionals would offer a variety of solutions that can help ensure your crawl space stays in tip-top shape. Here’s a look at potential options available through your local crawl space repair experts:

Encapsulation

Crawl space encapsulation is a great way to reduce issues with your crawl space. This process ensures that your crawl space doesn’t deal with moisture from outside the crawl space itself. Typically, that includes installing a crawl space vapor barrier, closing crawl space vents, and installing a dehumidifier.

Crew installing crawlspace insulation tape.

Sump Pump

A sump pump is an important tool in your crawl space because it lets you pump out water that got in your crawl space somehow. Whether it’s because of a generalized flood, a plumbing leak in your home, or a waterproofing failure, a sump pump in your crawl space will at least make sure you don’t have standing water for longer than necessary.

Insulation

Insulating your crawl space is an important element of making sure it’s healthy. If you don’t have any insulation in your crawl space, it’s a good idea to add it. If your insulation is wet or torn up, you’ll want to remove it and add new insulation. Regardless of your method, insulation is definitely important.

Installing thermal insulation

Dehumidifier

A dehumidifier should never be your only step, but it is an important step in the process of making your crawl space healthier. Once you’ve gotten rid of all the most common entrances for humidity, a dehumidifier can help ensure your crawl space remains at a specific humidity level. It also cleans and filters the air to improve overall air quality throughout the crawl space and home as a whole.

Dehumidifier in crawl space

If you’re thinking about making your crawl space healthier, these may be a few of the things that you need. An expert can help you do all of them more effectively.

We get it right the first time, every time, and our solutions are built to last.

FAQs About Crawl Space Repair

The best thing you can do is learn more about crawl space problems and keep an eye out for them. If you notice anything that hints at the possibility of a serious crawl space problem, you can call an expert to help you find out more about that problem. Not all these crawl space problems are extremely noticeable, but most of them have at least a few warning signs.

Not every crawl space problem requires immediate action, but all crawl space problems are important to handle as soon as possible. If you notice any of these concerns, like sagging floors or foundation cracks, you may want to get in touch with a crawl space expert to investigate it further.

Depending on the extent of the damage, a professional may recommend multiple repair solutions, but they will likely involve some combination of floor joist supports, vapor barriers, and/or dehumidifiers.

Don’t try to fix your crawl space by yourself. Crawl spaces are delicate areas, and DIYing may do more harm than help. Talk to an expert first. Experienced crawl space professionals have all the tools and expertise necessary to fix your crawl space the right way.

Crawl Space Repair Is Easier Than You’d Think with an Expert

One of the reasons many people worry about crawl space repair is because they’re concerned it’ll be difficult. Obviously, this is an understandable fear, but when you have the help of an expert, it’s really not that scary. Your local crawl space repair experts have a team of experienced professionals who are well-versed in identifying crawl space problems and recommending the best solution to meet your specific repair needs. Don’t hesitate to reach out to them for assistance so you can ensure the health and safety of your crawl space, your home, and your family.

My installers Ian, Gerritt, and Shyhine were very respectful and courteous. Rob, who inspected my home and provided repair plans was also very respectful and courteous.

I give them 4 stars since the results of repairs will not be seen for months and follow-up work still needs to be completed. Great job guys!

This job was in Concord Va. Mark(don’t have his last name handy). Came by, provided very professional evaluation., answered all questions, provided quote and I accepted. To my liking the service date kept getting updated sooner. Four young men arrived. They worked hard, obviously knew what they were doing, were polite, kept me informed, provided quality work, worked well together and cleaned up great. They were: Jose Rubio, David Perdomo, Carlos Carruido and Edras Aguilera (hope spelling is right) It was not cheap but I am confident in their work and very thankful for the manner in which they all represented themselves.

We just had our crawlspace encapsulation completed by JES, and the experience was nothing short of remarkable. From start to finish, it was the best all-around customer service you could ask for. Our inspector, Wylace Liggon, was fantastic and set the stage for a smooth project. The crew, Rafael Garcia Lopez, Jose Lovato, and Wilton Mendoza were a total powerhouse. The second they arrived on-site, they jumped straight to work and didn't stop. Their communication was easy and transparent, and I was so impressed by the amazing care they took with our property. They were professional, respectful, and efficient. A huge shoutout to our electrician, Justin Basile, as well, for his outstanding work and attention to detail. It is rare to find a team that works this seamlessly together. If you want a company that treats your home with respect and delivers top-tier results, I highly recommend this crew at JES!

Select Basement Waterproofing recently merged with or was acquired by Groundworks. SBW did a fair amount of work in my basement — French drains, installed 2 sump pumps, and epoxied the floor. Great job, wonderful project manager (Kenny), terrific technicians. I love that they call every year to remind me to schedule my annual service. This year Groundworks called, explained the name change, and Kenny was the technician for my annual service! It seems like most of SBW's employees went over to Groundworks and they're just as friendly and deliver what they promised. Love this company.

To be honest in all respects, so you can realize this a real review, I almost ditched this company initially because having left all my details, no-one called back, but at that time, I was requesting a free inspection with a girl in Texas. Since then, they now have a proper setup with Miriam in Edmonton at the office. Kevin, came out at the end of August and we hashed over his pricing and what we wanted done, until we finally arranged a package that I felt I could live with. The next time, if ever, this driveway may need replacement, but their warranty gives me 3 years, and if their work is anything akin to what I had done before, I should get 10 years plus! Caitlyn, Christian & Trevor came a month later (End of Sept) and did a simply put -amazing- job of lifting my sections of cracked concrete with up to 2” of drop, back to as level as possible. This left us with only a minimum of grinding tripping hazard edges. A few days later, Caitlyn came back as part of a 2 person team, to install, tool the seam-seal, and cleanup. I only wish we could have done this a little sooner after agreeing to the contract as the crack sealant is still drying due to our lower Fall temperatures at this time of year! The team was very thorough, never a guffaw if we came out and asked them to redo this spot or another. Great team, great job!Thank you EH

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!

I really enjoyed talking with the crew and they went above and beyond. They cleaned up everything afterwards and it looks great!

When a flooring job Mount Valley was doing for us ran into an issue, instead of coming back later, Brandon, Isiah and Jerimiah adapted the material they had with them and completed the job the same day. They kept us informed what they were doing and explained the changes from the original plan. This was the third project they have done for us and all of them have been top grade work.

Alpha Foundations is by far the most superior specialty contractor we’ve ever experienced. We had Malik Antoine & Andrew come to our home and install a new environment underneath our home. We had mold and bouncy floors throughout our home. We wanted to make sure we had a safe environment for the family. We went through numerous contractors to see what was the best option. In this case we did not go with the cheapest option we went with by far the most credible and reputable company with what seems to be true professionals and true tradesmen. From the level of communication from A to Z it was just an amazing experience. We spent well over our expected budget of $24,000 but I had no doubt that this company was the best company to hire. The crew came in, started work immediately and truly showed that they cared throughout the entire installation. It took numerous days but they got it done and I’m very satisfied with the results. Thank you Alpha Foundations!!

Aaron Hudson and Zach Taylor recently completed foundation work using polyurethane, and their performance was commendable. They demonstrated exceptional speed and efficiency throughout the project, ensuring that the injections were done with precision. The cleanup process was equally impressive; once they finished, it was difficult to tell where they had drilled for the injections, highlighting their attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship. In addition to their professional skills, Aaron and Zach created a positive atmosphere on-site by playing Christmas music while they worked, which added a cheerful touch to the project. Their ability to combine efficiency with a pleasant work environment made the experience enjoyable. Overall, their work left a lasting impression, showcasing not only their technical capabilities but also their approach to customer service

They worked so hard for two days to get the job done in a timely and correct manner. We can't say enough things about not only the employees but the products they offer. We have been in our house for 10 years and have always had a wet basement but now we are able to use it for living space and we are so happy with the whole experience! 10/10 would recommend!

Mount Valley Foundation did a wonderful job on our crawl space. From the beginning, Clint was very easy to understand & gave us affordable options. The encapsulation only took 3 days & the crew finished up the third evening at 7:00 pm, just in time before Helene came. Our home usually would have flooded during a storm like this, but with Mount Valleys installation of the draining pipes, the water was pumped out successfully. The crew that did the installation was wonderful as well, thank you to Donovan Rougeaux, Isaiah Davis, & Cory Phillips for the quick installation.

Our service technician Denis Goncharov was excellent. Kept in constant communication before arriving to ensure we knew exactly when he would arrive, we had our sump pump annual service and inspection. He did a great job with this task. Additionally he also checked the radon levels in our home and we discovered that we are a little high which can be bad for your health. He explained what can be done about this and even provided an estimate on how much this would cost to remedy. We were very glad to receive this information. Very personable and great service!!

​I couldn’t be happier with the work done by Groundworks. Foundation issues are incredibly stressful, but they made the entire process seamless. They were punctual, professional, and remarkably quick without sacrificing quality. It’s rare to find a team this reliable. Starting with Casey, very educated and knows his stuff. Then theres the crew, very polite and courteous. Mark Lopez was very informative and always kept me updated Stafford is a very hard worker very attentive and knows what he's doing. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for honest, high-quality foundation repair."

Foundation problems are a very stressful situation to deal with, but from the beginning Ohio Basement Authority made the process effortless and brought us peace of mind not only in the choices we made for our solution but also in the financial aspect of it as well. James Sandlin was courteous and friendly from the second he stepped into our home. He was very thoroughly with the review of our foundation and the needs we were looking to meet. Sometimes in these situations it's all about the experience and he truly made this experience all the more better for us. He walked us through and educated us on the different problems foundations can have and the different solutions that help match the problems we were facing. He even gave us multiple financial choices that helped us choose what worked the best for our needs. James Sandlin with Ohio Basement Authority gained a lifetime customer to match their lifetime warranty for the work they do on our property. We are truly grateful.

If your building/home is sinking, Groundworks is your solution! My neighbor was getting their building lifted so I decided to get a quote since we are on the same soil. I was very impressed with Cody Wellner who came to give me a quote to just keep 1/4 of my building from sinking any further. He took photos in my crawlspace to show me the cracks that I can't see as well as showed me the cracks on the outside. I asked if I should put support in other parts of my building and he said it isn't needed. Because he didn't try to upsell me which I have felt other companies did try, I felt this company is one I could trust. The whole process was incredibly easy. Groundworks worked with my city to get the permit and once it was approved, scheduled the work quickly. Richard was assigned as the lead for the work. He was fantastic in keeping me posted on what the status and answered any questions I had. His crew (Fili, Frank and Sean) were all efficient, professional and did a great job. So if your building needs support, go with Groundworks!

Corbin took the lead with his team of CJ and Austin. They were the friendliest, cleanest, most knowledgeable and hard working guys I've ever had doing work in my home. I had structural issues in my crawlspace, causing my bathroom floor to start slanting. Instead of taking a day or two as originally thought, these guys were in at 8 and out by 11. Corbin showed me afterward, pictures of what was done and answered all my questions. These guys were all very nice and worked hard! They get extra points for being so cool with my dogs and cats.

JES installed my sump pump in October 2023. Today (9/25/24) was my annual maintenance appointment to be sure that everything was working well with it. My technician, Ben, contacted me on 9/24/24 to check in with me on any possible issues that he needed to be made aware of prior to my appointment as well as to confirm my appointment. Very professional and polite. Fast forward to the appointment, Ben arrived on time, once again was very professional. I showed him where it was installed so he could get to work. Unbeknownst to both Ben and I, well there was no power going to the sump pump. That was as easy as flipping a switch on the breaker box. Then, Ben noticed a leak in the piping that was installed when the sump pump was installed. Ben ended up having to cut my drywall in which JES will incur the cost to repair it back. But this was nothing he couldn't handle although he did have to make an unexpected run to Home Depot/Lowes to get the tool needed to cut the pipe. Ben returned in a decent amount of time and got right to work. Ben repaired the pipe, cleaned the sump pump bucket, and ensured everything was working correctly. Towards the end of the appointment, Ben made a few recommendations and ending up finding out that the piping that is coming out of the from of my house that pushes the water out was installed incorrectly and was not was I paid for. Therefore, Ben made a call to his supervisor, Megan Hartman, to put her on notice about this issue as well. Ben assured me that someone from the service department would reach out to me to schedule repairs for the piping outside as well as the wall repair. Overall, I would give Ben a 10/10 and would highly recommend him as your service tech. He made sure to answer any questions I had to the best of his ability, remain professional, kept me informed throughout the whole appt, valued me as a paying customer, and advised me that if I had any further questions after this appt that I shouldn't hesitate to reach out to him. Ben was AWESOME‼
