Although the crawl space is not a true part of the occupied area of the home, it is one of the most important parts. This means that the crawl space has a profound impact on the air quality of the living space of the home. As air warms within the home’s living area, it moves upward, drawing the air within the crawl space to move upwards as well. This is known as the stack effect. The air within the crawl space travels upwards, moving with in the living rooms of the home, which draws air from the outside walls of the crawl space inwards. Up to 40% of the air on the first floor of the home may originate from the crawl space or ‘basement’ of the home. Affordable Crawl Space Renovations want to make sure your crawl space is as healthy and mold free as it can be.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The cost to dig a trench ranges from $400 to $1,200 per 100 linear feet, depending on the soil, depth, and width. Plan to spend $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching (it’ll be on the higher end if you have rocky soil). Renting a trencher costs $100 to $250 per hour, depending on the type of trencher. 

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

Trenches are 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the right depth for your trench will depend on the nature of your project. For example, if you’re digging a trench as part of a French drain installation, it should be 18 inches deep. An excavation professional can explain how deep your trench should be.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.
