It supports everything else – walls, windows, floors, doorways, roof – so when your foundation is damaged, it can cause serious problems throughout your home. Like most things in life, your foundation is subject to environmental stress. Expanding and contracting soil, excessive moisture and inadequate drainage are some of the most common threats to your home’s foundation. Over time, environmental stressors can cause a foundation to shift, crack or settle unevenly. And homeowners often miss early warning signs of foundation damage. Homeowners spend about $4 billion annually stabilizing faulty foundations, and those costs may increase as more homes are built in areas known for shifting soil. Understanding risk factors and signs of foundation problems can help you protect your most valuable asset from irreversible damage.

Recent Review: Logan examined the encapsulation and answered my questions about some water stains. He suggested a couple of things we could do that would improve things which we are still considering. The quotes he gave us for those suggestions seemed a bit higher than what we were expecting. The service call was no charge.

Recent Review: FANTASTIC! Scott's team showed up at 7:30 and got to work. They removed all our old and moldy insulation, scraped and removed all the mold, then sprayed the crawl space with a product to prevent against mold in the future. They then put in all new insulation and encapsulated our crawl space entirely. The vents are filled with foam, the ground and half of the walls are covered in a very thick silver insulator and they installed a dehumidifier to control humidity. Our crawl space is now more energy efficient, mold and moisture proof, AND a functioning storage space. By the time I got back home from work at 6 they were completely finished, had cleaned up after themselves, and even put a new lock on the door to our crawl space. We are very impressed and happy with the results! I feel like we added another room to the house!

Recent Review: I spoke with Josh on the phone and expressed our situation and concerns. He arranged for Allen to come out and check for moisture/mold inside our home. Allen was VERY professional and put my mind at ease, I wanted to make sure that we didn't have any water leaks in our home or moisture trapped between the sheetrock. We are doing a first floor renovation and I wanted to make sure that we didn't have any hidden problems before we spent a large amount of money on new wood floors, cabinetry, furniture, etc. Allen validated what I had already suspected, moisture and a moldy smell was coming up from a hole where a sink drain pipe went through to our crawl space. There were large gaps between the pipe and the concrete sub-floor above our crawl space. It was clear to see with his infrared laser that this was the major cause of our problem. We are in a community of 9 Town Homes on Intercoastal (in a wake zone) in Highland Beach, FL. Our Town Homes have crawl spaces that are at least 6-7' tall and run the entire length and width of our homes. Typically they are dry and dusty. In October and parts of November the tides are high, this combined with the large amount of rain we have had our crawl space was like a swamp. This made for even more moisture and a dank musty odor in our home. The only unfortunate part is Discrete Restoration does not do waterproofing or vapor barriers in basements or crawl spaces! I highly recommend them and their services.

Recent Review: Steve stopped by on a Monday to see what we wanted done and scheduled the work for that Thursday. He arrived promptly and immediately started to work. He had estimated that it would take a day but he finished in six hours, which we appreciated. He and his assistant were very thorough and cleaned up after each step of the work.

Recent Review: Great communication from the office administrator, Ashley, regarding the estimate, timeline for the project, and additional work needed as issues arose. The workers showed up on-time and worked hard all day & the project was completed on-time.

Recent Review: It was a large project. I'm mostly happy with the work. The cost ended up being 23% higher than the original estimate. Some of the work ended up taking much longer than originally planned. I do have one minor complaint/suggestion. There was so much drywall work done that the dust clogged up the air conditioner filter. The air conditioner blower motor burned out because of this and cost me an additional $600. This is something I'll keep in mind for the future, and it seems like something an experienced company should be mindful of.

Recent Review: I found water in my crawl space under the stairs. All the Xmas decorations and sheet rock were moldy and full of bugs. Insurance adjuster and I could find no apparent leak. The mold was killing my allergies. I contacted Advantaclean Environmental of south Austin b/c I had to get rid of mold. I called Wed 12-15-11 set an appointment for the following Monday. But George read the email I sent to magic one service and called me the next day. He came up himself to inspect the damage. He put together an itemized plan of what needed to be repaired with cost. He told me I could use other sheet rock and plumbing/HVAC people if I had established relationships. I opted to use people he worked with in the past the best decision I made. Brian from advanta clean came Friday and cut out the moldy sheet rock and he found the leak source was the hot water heater drain, hot water bib was leaking for washing machine and insulation failure around AC drain pipe. Doy Jackson Fletcher mechanical checked repaired the hot water heater replaced all the rotted wood, replace washing machine bibs. Bill Maloney came on Saturday replaced floated and textured the sheet rock in ONE day. Bottom line great quality and fast service. I would recommend them to all my friends!
