At Precision Crawlspace & Renovations, we're conscious of the fact that the crawlspace is a section of the house that is occasionally overlooked and can cause worry for the owner. Due to this, we have made it our responsibility to provide our clients with the best possible experience, starting with the initial evaluation and continuing through the final cleanup.

"Sawyer(owner) is expert at his profession. He has some of the best technical team in the business. He is fair, honest, thorough and his work is professional, timely, and turn key. We had serious mold, mildew, dampness, bugs, and impact on our floors and support joists. Sawyer and his team dug around my foundation and installed drainage pipes, those lead to collection areas and then to pumps to expel the rain water runoff. Also the entire crawlspace was sealed and a commercial grade dehumidifier installed. Heavy floor barrier as well. He also installed more lighting and moister monitors. That was just our main house. We also have a 2500 foot guest house where the identical service was installed. That was 5 years ago and it all works beautifully- in fact when I show it to neighbors they say “dam I could bring my sleeping bag and camp out down here”. We’ll guess what my daughter got for Christmas- the same service for her home! Sawyer saved my house from more serious damage and improved our health. I think Crawlspace’s should be outlawed unless Ed built with these features. Whatever you spend you will get it back plus when you sell and know you are living well in the meantime- don’t waste time with rookies and fast Eddie - do it right and sleep better!"

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

It depends. For new ovens, it’s best to run a few empty cycles to prepare the oven for use and to keep any manufacturing byproducts from entering your food. But if your oven is smoking due to a few burnt pieces of old food, then it probably won’t hurt to eat it. If there’s a lot of smoke, then your food probably won’t taste good, even if it might not be harmful to consume.

Yes, most insurance plans cover acts of nature. In policy documents, this also may be called “Acts of God” or “natural disasters.” However, not all acts of nature are covered by your policy, and the extent to which they’re covered depends on your specific contract. Check your policy documents to understand your coverage limits and exclusions.

Solar panels that haven’t been properly inspected and maintained pose several risks to homeowners. Firstly, a dirty, obstructed, or malfunctioning solar panel won’t be able to generate as much power, which could lead to power shortages and wasted money. But more importantly, neglected solar panel arrays can become dangerous if left for too long. Corroded wires and exposed circuitry are fire hazards, so it’s strongly recommended to keep up with regular maintenance to protect your home.

Hard materials like glass, metal, and hardwood floors, washable fabrics, and undamaged electrical appliances can often be salvaged after a fire, although it depends on the extent of the damage. For washable fabrics, make sure to use a phosphate mix during the washing process to extract the smoke smell. There are a few things you should throw away after a fire, like canned foods and cosmetics, even if they don’t look like they’re damaged.

Most insurance policies cover fire damage. Be sure to check the details of your policy to see how coverage is calculated—it can be either the full replacement cost of damaged materials and items or the actual cash value, which includes depreciation. When making a fire damage claim, be sure to get all the necessary documentation together to help expedite the process.
