"Work was performed on schedule as quoted. Kept me up to date as project progressed. Did a fantastic job which really enhanced our homes efficiency. Lower lever of home is dry and temperature stays consistent on both levels now. Premier Basement System has completely eliminated the damp musty odor in our home and eliminated any concerns of water or moisture in the crawl space. Additionally the system seals off the crawl space from bugs. When the L&I inspector inspected the electrical work he commented on the quality work and the fact this was the cleanest crawl space he ever saw. Highly recommended!"

"We’ve had a lot of crews in our home for various projects over the years, and I have to say this was one of the most courteous. They worked hard, navigating through our kitchen to access the basement and I really appreciated their efforts. Thank you MTU, we now have safe walls in our cellar and fresh beams to keep the house standing ;)"

"If there were more stars check, I'd mark all of them. Mac and his team were awesome. From clearing thick forest, creating pads, arenas, driveways, complicated septic fields and more - they were great. Reliable, when other (unrelated contractors were MIA), Mac and his team were always there when needed. They went over and above in so many ways, that even my neighbors came over to personally thank him/them for being so professional and conscientious to each different neighbor's needs. They took care to leave various trees present that added curb appeal to the home setting, placed boulders around areas to protect the integrity of newly created roads and kept things neat and tidy. This was without me asking or any expectations, as I was out of state. But Mac kept me engaged with their progress by sending me updated photos of every accomplishment. I arrived with equine in tow (from several day's drive) to the property prepared for my arrival. Mac and his crew were even there to help unload my animals and set up equine accommodations. Mac and his crew are professional, organized, have GREAT equipment and I would highly recommend Sandpoint Excavation to anyone looking to do 'anything related to dirt'. They do it all!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Having a trusted crawl space contractor is the key to great encapsulation. If you're not sure how to hire a crawl space pro, begin by asking your neighbors for referrals. Homes in your neighborhood will often have a similar foundation to your house, and personal recommendations are one of the best ways to find a contractor. Additionally, double-check that the contractor has experience with encapsulation as well as proof of their license and insurance.

A sump pump can remove excess moisture from under a house if standing water is present. Other ways to protect your crawl space from moisture include installing a vapor barrier, using a dehumidifier, installing insulation, and using a fan to dry the space. Finally, keeping your gutters clear of debris and positioning your downspouts away from the home’s foundation can prevent moisture from getting into the crawl space in the first place.

The difficulty of adding a basement to an existing house can vary depending on the house’s location, the size of the basement, and the type and condition of the existing foundation. Adding a basement is a job best handled by the pros, so you’ll need to enlist professional help for this project.

Several types of insulation are effective for crawl spaces, with spray foam and rigid foam boards being two of the best options. Closed-cell spray foam insulation is a strong choice because it effectively repels moisture, resists biological growth, seals the air, and provides excellent thermal protection, especially in hard-to-reach areas. Rigid foam insulation boards are another excellent material as they insulate well, resist water damage, and will not settle over time like fiberglass or cellulose.

Ductwork sweats due to a temperature difference between the air inside the ducts and the surrounding air, similar to how a cold drink develops condensation in the heat. This sweating is a sign that your HVAC system is not operating at peak efficiency. The best way to keep ductwork from sweating is to wrap it in proper insulation, which also improves your system's energy efficiency. Another option is to close off your crawl space and install a dehumidifier to dry the air and lower its dew point.
