Is it better to have a vented or sealed crawl space?

• <div><p>It is better to have a crawl space that is tailored to the outside temperature, your needs, and the season. For example, it is much better to have a vented space when it’s very hot outside and your AC bills are sky-high. Conversely, when the temperature drops and humidity rises, it is almost always better to have your vents shut and covered if possible. </p></div>

Where should I avoid using a dehumidifier?

• <div><p>One handy thing about whole-house dehumidifiers is, once installed, you don’t have to worry about placement or changing the dehumidifier’s position. But if you are using a portable dehumidifier, we suggest keeping it away from walls, vents, and furniture. It needs a central, unobstructed spot with access to lots of air to do its job.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take for water to damage a home’s foundation?

• <div><p>Water damage in your home&rsquo;s foundation is gradual, often beginning with small cracks that let water seep in. Over time, this weakens the foundation, which then allows in more water, causing significant structural damage. This process can take months or years to destroy your foundation, and the repairs can be very costly. Have your foundation inspected regularly to prevent significant damage.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to repair a crawl space foundation?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s worth it to repair a crawl space foundation, even if the issue seems relatively minor. Foundation problems often get worse and more expensive to fix if you leave them untreated. Additionally, your entire home, from the framing and flooring to the roof system, relies on the foundation for even and level support. Issues with your foundation will almost always manifest as problems in and above your living space, so it&rsquo;s important to find a solution.</p></div>

Q: What are the most expensive parts of finishing a basement?

• <div><p>Anything having to do with the structure of your home, such as raising the ceiling, is usually the most expensive part of finishing a basement. Another project component that could be a surprisingly high expense is adding an exterior entrance. </p><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-average-cost-add-exitwalk-out-my-finished-basement.htm">cost of a walkout basement</a> can be anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000.</p></div>

It went very well. The workers were very professional and they were careful not to create or leave a mess. They finished in a much shorter time than we expected. VERY SATISFIED!!!!!

I love the fact that the owner came out with the crew and explained the whole process to me. I did not have to pay any money up front because he wanted to ensure that I was satisfied with the job. They are currently working on the job and have not completed it thus far.
