"Mr. Gomez came to inspect our issue the day after I called. He appeared on time, inspected the area, took measurements, and recommended an inside French drain around three perimeters of our house--about 130 feet. He was very personable and took time to answer all of our questions. He buried one gutter downspout and tied it into the sump pump drain line extending it out an extra 40 feet from the house. We also requested he bury a 2nd downspout and extend it 50 feet from the house. A driveway drain in front of a garage door on the 4th side of the house was also added. He and his men arrived as promised and completed the job in 3 days. They prepared the area by wrapping all furniture, etc. in plastic before starting work. Concrete floors were also covered in plastic. The first day jack hammers rocked the house as they used them to chip up a foot wide channel in the concrete to make room for laying the Waterguard system. After the first day, all other work was quiet and quick. They were able to bury the drain lines outside and replace grass so that no evidence of any digging is even apparent without close inspection--amazing!!! Everything was completely cleaned up inside afterwards with no need to even vacuum. We consulted 5 companies before contracting with Uneven Floors. Not only was the system he installed comparable to what the others recommended, but was several thousand dollars cheaper. We have not had a hard rain to test the system, but water poured into the installed channel went to the sump pump so I would be highly surprised if it doesn't work as promised. As others have indicated in reviews, Mr. Gomez is very quick to respond to calls and emails. I would highly recommend this company."

"

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 FAQs, answered by experts

Structural problems with the foundation or roof, water damage, and significant plumbing or electrical issues are all considered major red flags in a home inspection. Of these, a structural problem related to the foundation is often the most severe. Foundation repairs are typically the most expensive and intrusive to carry out, averaging around $5,000 but sometimes reaching up to $16,000. Because these problems can pose safety risks and be costly to fix, you should ask your inspector detailed questions about any identified issues. You will need to carefully consider how major problems affect what you’re willing to pay for the home, or if you want to proceed with the sale at all.

To prepare for a pre-drywall inspection, make sure to schedule the inspection before your drywall (and preferably insulation) is installed, but after all ductwork, plumbing, electrical wiring, and framing are in. You should also print a copy of your floor plan for your inspector, which they’ll use to make sure the build matches up. Lastly, try to clear the home of major obstacles (tools, large stacks of material, etc.) to allow the inspector access to the places they need to check.

By nature, two-prong outlets aren't grounded—but the box they run to might be, which makes them safer. The safest way to test if an outlet is grounded is to purchase a circuit tester, which cost about $20 at home improvement stores. 

If you discover your outlet (or outlets) aren't grounded, know that this greatly increases your risk of personal injury and electrical fires. You may want to consider installing new three-prong ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets. On average, the cost to install GFCI outlets is about $210 per outlet.

Depending on location, sellers are often legally required to disclose a home’s defects to buyers, even if the home is being sold as-is. Certain types of defects, such as asbestos, mold, previous water damage, structural issues, and other safety risks, may be required to be disclosed, so check local laws to see what needs to be disclosed and what doesn’t.

In some cases, a home inspector tests the indoor air quality if properly certified. Most of the time, however, they’ll outsource the work to a professional air quality consultant. Testing indoor air for pollutants requires several certifications and a suite of specialized tools. Many HVAC and home inspection pros have this certification.
