estimate/advice regarding some moisture problems we were having. I called them,
in large part, because of all of the positive reviews they received on Angie's
List. They were one of three estimates I received, and while the overall
estimate was a bit higher, I based my decision to do with them because of their
experience and because so many others seemed happy with work they had
performed.
Initially, I thought I only needed a vapor barrier, and they did, too.
They outlined what they would do to help us solve some of the problems that we
were experiencing inside the house - they would install the vapor barrier,
remove old debris and the old vapor barrier, seal the chimney pipe which was no
longer in use, and apply a an anti-mold product to all of the joists.
I scheduled the work to be done and they came out the following week to do the
job. While underneath the house, they quickly noticed that the back of
the crawl space was flooded - the work could not be done. Eli came to
talk to me and let me know that they would need to put a sump in the crawl
space - it would be an additional $1000.00. I wasn't pleased by that
news, of course, but I asked for pictures of the crawl and it was indeed flooded,
so I understood that it needed to be done.
A week later they came to install the sump and put down the barrier.
Unfortunately, I was later informed that they did not have enough room to dig
in order to install the pump. I was a little annoyed that there was going
to be yet another change - I wondered why they hadn't measured in the first
place... but, I understood that the back half of the crawl had been flooded,
and so I assumed maybe they were not able to measure at that time.
I was presented with a 3rd plan - install the vapor barrier, and water proof
the outside of the back wall, along with the corners of the side wall,
too. I asked a lot of questions about this new plan, and though Rob said
it should have been more expensive, he said that he would do the work for the
same price as the sump because he didn't want to change things up on me
again. I appreciated this - at this point, with all the changes, I
wouldn't have been able to afford much more anyway!
As it turned out, they had actually already installed the vapor barrier on the
day that they came out - the second visit - even though they had not yet
installed the sump pump. I wasn't thrilled about this because if it had
rained really hard, the crawl space could have filled with water again.
When I shared my concerns with Rob, he said he would have someone do the work
first thing Monday morning. I looked at the weather, and with no rain in
the forecast, I agreed to this schedule.
With all the changes we?d made through this process, I actually forgot about
the Monday appointment and left out back gate locked. I'm sure that was
pretty annoying because when Rob initially called, I told him that I didn't
think I'd be able to leave work to open the gate; we would have had to
reschedule, and he would have had to rearrange his schedule and the schedule of
his workers. He was kind about my screw up, and in the end I was able to
leave work and get home, and the work was performed that day.
Rob sent pictures of all the work as it was being done. And when I didn't
receive any pictures of the completed crawl space vapor barrier, he went back
out to the house to take pictures. I'm claustrophobic so I was worried
that without pictures, I might not be able to verify that everything had been
done - I appreciated that he was so agreeable regarding going back to our house
to take additional pictures.
Though this wasn't an easy cut and dry job, and the price jumped by nearly
$1000.00, I do feel like it was a job well done. Rob was easy to
communicate with, and I appreciated that he could be contacted by email and
phone, and I appreciated that he provided pictures of the work in progress, and
the completed work, too.
Today, the repairman arrived to make the improvements (different from the first). He did not appear to mind my observing his work, and at one point, added a little extra insulation behind a light switch at my request. He did an excellent job of moving any furniture to access outlets and was very efficient. There were several times where he 'went the extra mile' to ensure things
were done exactly right, cutting no corners at all. (even vacuuming up slight residue!)
We made a followup appointment to have the windows and doors sealed. Triangle Reconstruction arrived on time and completed the job in a timely manner, and what a great job they did! The temperature difference was noticeable almost instantly.
The crawlspace encapsulation was a little on the high side although not expensive for what they are doing. I've had other estimates that were higher and the quality of the material wasn't as good. I will definitely be calling Triangle Reconstruction for the crawlspace encapsulation when I'm able to fit it into the budget.
I can't say enough good things about Triangle Reconstruction. I will be recommending them to my friends and neighbors!
Rob is very professional and easy to work with. He is prompt, courteous, reliable and he stands behind his work. I can very highly recommend Triangle to anyone who needs this service.
