CRAWLSPACE CONCEPTS

Completed work in a half day, were on time and very polite. Helped the whole process go smooth from initial quote to final work. Would highly recommend.

The Crawlspace Concepts team is very professional. They arrived on time and were right at work to enclose the crawl space and install a dehumidifier. I received a call ahead of the appointment as a reminder and to confirm the appointment. The second appointment was scheduled several weeks later (December) to allow the crawlspace to dry out and fit into the schedule. We could immediately feel the difference in our house after the initial work completed. Looking back at the consultation appointment, there was no pressure at all. We received a proposal promptly after the consultation visit. I had a lot of follow up questions which were all answered before we agreed to move forward. We definitely recommend Crawlspace Concepts! This is a very friendly and professional team.

I worked mainly with Scott Gales. He is very professional and understands the science of crawlspace solutions extremely well. He came out for a free estimate within a reasonable time and answered phone questions I had before we hired him. The day the work was done he brought a crew of four or five workers, and they completed the work in about half a day. We needed to hire an electrician to install an outlet in the crawlspace for the dehumidifier and Scott gave us several recommendations (a licensed electrician must perform this work; we used Harrelson Electric). Scott's workers were very professional also and left the jobsite clean.
I had considered doing this work myself, or hiring someone to simply replace the old insulation. I am very glad I went with Scott's company Crawlspace Concepts. Removing the insulation is a dirty, hazardous job. Scott's workers suited up and wore respirators. It also would have taken me weeks to get all the insulation out, seal the vents, and install the moisture barrier and dehumidifier. I had intended to replace the insulation, but Scott suggested I wait and see the effects of sealing the crawl space and controlling the humidity. Putting new insulation would have just given existing pests (part of the reason we were cleaning out the crawl space) a new place to live. Leaving the underside of the floor bare would eliminate their nesting areas and would allow me to inspect any other hidden issues, such as water leaks, mold, etc. I was concerned that a non-insulated floor would send my cooling/heating bill through the roof, but this hasn't been the case. I can monitor the temperature and humidity of the crawl space now, and now in the summer it is usually about the same temperature (about 74 degrees) and humidity (49 percent) as indoors. We'll have to see what happens in the winter, but so far Scott has been right -- we don't need to replace the insulation. If we do, we can always add it later.
Another thing that shows Scott's experience is that he laid in the moisture barrier with a slight overlap on the walls and posts inside the crawl space, but did not attach it to the walls. This allowed the pest control folks (we use Canady and Son) to easily do the termite inspection and treatment without having to cut through the moisture barrier.
Overall, we are very happy so far with the work Crawlspace Concepts did on our home. I am relieved to get the nasties out from under the house, and even more relieved to have a humidity-controlled crawl space that should greatly reduce the chance for mold and pests living under my house. Good job Scott!

Went very well. Took a few days to complete the job. No problems encountered.

Job went very well. They were on time professional and did an excellent job.

Cleaned and grated and removed debris from the crawl space; installed a antimicrobial liner/moisture barrier; sealed foundation vents; built a custom pvc access door; installed a wireless hygrometer and installed a dehumidifier w/condensation pump.

Installation was a one day job, as was described before job began. All work was done very neatly, minimal disruption. Follow up was good, return service prompt to adjust level of dehumidification. Could not have gone better. Very knowledgable and professional.
