The crawlspace under the house was flooded after the recent period of heavy rains.  We pumped out the water but it was flooded again the next day.  Time to call in the experts!

After reading all the reviews on Angie?s List, we called Jim Briley, owner of Crawlspaces.com.  Jim came out the next morning and looked over the situation.  He determined that the water was percolating up through the ground rather than a leak in the foundation.  He recommended a solution, breaking the process down step by step.  He quoted a cost for each step and made recommendations about what needs to be done ?right now? and what could be put off until later if the budget was a problem.  He even pointed out several things that we could probably skip altogether.  Ultimately it made sense to buy the whole encapsulation package.

After we agreed on the work to be done, Jim said he could have a crew out the next day and that everything would be completed in only three days.

Jim?s crew arrived right on schedule and immediately went to work clearing everything out of the crawlspace.  Next they removed the insulation from under the floor, sealed the vents, and treated the entire area for mold and mildew.  They dug a French drain around the inside perimeter and installed a sump pump.  They put down a ground cover and sealed it to the foundation walls, leaving just enough space above the cover for termite inspections.   Next they brought in fill dirt to fill in some low areas around the foundation.  Finally they installed a new insulated, lockable crawlspace door.

The crew installed lights in the crawlspace for their use while working under the house.  They left the lights in place for our use in the future.  The water heater needed to be replaced.  The crew removed the old water heater and installed the new one . . . no additional charge.

The job was completed at the quoted price; no additional charges or cost overruns.  Everything was completed on time exactly as scheduled. The job site was left clean and neat.  The crawlspace is no longer a scary place to get into.

The encapsulation system has a transferable lifetime warranty ?against water intrusion into the crawlspace.?   The warranty stays with the home even if the home is sold.

There have been at least three heavy rains since the installation.  No water has accumulated in the crawlspace and the top of the plastic liner has remained dry.  The water is being pumped out automatically through an underground pipe that drains out at the side of the road and down to a storm drain.

We are very pleased with Crawlspaces.com?s encapsulation installation.  Jim Briley is a true professional.  He knows what he?s doing, does what he says he?ll do, and gets the job done on time and on budget.  We highly recommend Crawlspaces.com to anyone with similar crawlspace flooding problems.

"I required an independent assessment of the structural integrity of a garage/business studio being added to my home. Josh conducted a thorough evaluation, provided a written report, developed new building plans, and collaborated with various stakeholders to ensure that all plans adhered to the design specifications and building codes. Josh is professional, knowledgeable, patient, and reliable. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a competent professional."

"Words cannot fully express how grateful I am to have found Biotek Environmental! Ted took a lot of time compassionately listening to my concerns and explaining the initial process over the phone. Tyler patiently shared his extensive knowledge on how mold develops along with natural ways to clean clothes and surfaces. He also explained the meter reads of mold counts and humidity levels as I tagged along from room to room during the home inspection. Every step of the process was clearly explained creating a great sense of confidence in me and Dad. Crew members Jermaine, Ray, and Matt were friendly, considerate, and diligent in their hardworking task of removing the mold source. Donna was very professional and prompt to respond to any questions by email. I could go on and on with how pleased and relieved I am to have found Tyler and company but I will just close by stating the obvious: health is vital. My elderly father's health and general quality of life have improved substantially since we hired Biotek Environmental. They are also a clean company with a generous warranty. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a healthier home."

"Want to go on record to say that service was excellent from initial contact and a thorough timely evaluation and appraisal with supporting documentation. I found the work to be very professional and was done in an expedient fashion. Company was very transparent in pricing and I found their actual pricepoint to be more than fair for the final rendered report. That said, I would gladly use this company again if I had the need."

"I am not lying when I saw that EnviroFry is the best business/company I have ever worked with or hired in my entire life. My son was severely ill with mold illness and PANS and it took FOUR mold companies to find all of the hidden mold in our home… EnviroFry was the company that finally found all of the mold. They are like mold finding ninjas. Not only are they the most skilled at what they do (I would literally fly them across the globe if I had to because they are the only ones I trust) but they are the most amazing, kind, compassionate, and loving people… just the type of people you need with you and advising you when you are scared and overwhelmed. We have now been back in our home for 3 years and everyone is healthy and doing great. We had a successful remediation. I recommend them to everyone I know and they have helped so many friends and family members of mine and all of them feel the same as I do about their excellence."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes. If a home inspection reveals that the property has major issues or is unsafe, the buyer can back out of the purchase.

Generally, foundation cracks and repair are not covered by standard homeowners insurance policies. This type of damage is often considered normal wear and tear or a result of poor maintenance, which is the homeowner's responsibility. For example, damage caused by settling, shifting soil, or drainage issues is typically excluded.

However, there are exceptions. Coverage may apply if the foundation damage is a direct result of a covered peril, such as a house fire, a burst pipe, vandalism, or a vehicle accident. Coverage for natural disasters like earthquakes and floods often requires a separate, specific policy or add-on.

If you suspect that your roof is leaking, you can hire a professional roofing contractor to inspect it to find the source of the issue. There are many possible reasons why your roof is leaking, including broken shingles, damaged flashing, clogged gutters, and more. A roof leak inspection will help you pinpoint the exact cause of the leak and the pro will suggest the best way to resolve it.

It is generally recommended to schedule a professional plumbing inspection annually, though an inspection every two years may be sufficient for newer homes. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age of your plumbing system, water quality (such as hardness), and any previous plumbing issues. More frequent checks are advisable for older homes or those with a history of problems. Additionally, if your property has mature trees with extensive root systems, more frequent inspections are beneficial as roots can crack sewer and water lines. Regular maintenance helps identify potential issues early, preventing costly repairs, and can include checking for leaks, inspecting connections, and ensuring pipes and fixtures are in good working condition to prolong the life of your plumbing system.

There are no strict rules for who is responsible for covering repair costs after a home inspection, as the issue is highly negotiable, except in cases of mandatory repairs. Major issues discovered during the inspection often lead to a renegotiation. The buyer might ask the seller to make the repairs as a condition of the sale, but it is more common for the buyer to use the estimated repair costs as leverage to lower the asking price. The seller may agree to lower the price to compensate the buyer or agree to fix the issues before the sale is complete. However, in a competitive real estate market, a seller might refuse to cover any repairs, knowing that other buyers may be willing to purchase the property as-is.
