Angie's List Suggests That Every Home Needs Seven Things Done at any Given Time. We Likely Do Them All. And We Absolutely Guarantee 100% Satisfaction
Kill The Mold
A lot of money is being made by way of FEAR. There are some excellent videos describing how firms use mold (or something that looks like mold) to sell expensive mold remediation jobs.
However, it would be senseless not to fog for mold whether work is being done or not.
But we fog 100% of all our jobs. It's not an option. It's completely safe, odorless, and cost effective.

Exterior Wall Drainage
Exterior Wall Drainage
This system has been around for forty years. Its withstood the test of time. The water sneaks in through the expansion gap and is usually a result of the water table, so the solution cannot be made from outside the structure.
On occasion, we can drain the water out without a pump. However, in most cases, the homeowner needs a dedicated electrical circuit to our sump pump system.
Vent Fans
Vent Fans
These fans have wrecked a lot of homes when pest control companies misapplied them. These are to be installed in encapsulated crawlspaces ONLY. Pulling warm, moist air through an unsealed crawlspace actually CAUSES mold.
We put a ten year warranty on these when we install them.

With Every Proposal, USR Offers Options That Fit the Application. This is our Mini-System that Handles Smaller Crawlspace Standing Water Issues
Felt Underlay
Felt Underlay
This 1/8 Inch Felt Underlay is optional and we itemize it on your proposal. It Protects Your Floor Poly and Helps With Ground Gasses
Footer Tile Drain
Footer Tile Drain
USR builds footer tile drains when they are required, and only where they are required. Frankly, a few firms put a trench in every crawlspace. It's called a Smart Drain. We aren't convinced that's too smart. Very often, only one wall needs a drain. We aren't a cookie-cutter firm. The system we put together is for your specific needs, and then we guarantee the system for 20 years.
Crawlspace Doors
Crawlspace Doors
We tear out the old door, line it with treated 1" X 6" or 2" X 6" Treated Lumber and then go over the top of that with PVC board. Our doors are usually an insert with a waterproof front with screw handles that close hard to a felt seal.
Check the pricing on some custom doors and then check out ours.
The function of the door is to maintain the seal.
Spend $700 or spend $400 for the same seal.
Crawlspace Cleanout
Crawlspace Cleanout
Most crawlspaces just need the plastic removed. Others need the plastic and insulation removed. Then there are jobs like the one in Fountain City on our VIDEOS page. There was over 3000 Pounds of debris removed.

Watch This Simple Scientific Study Done On Ten Homes Side-By-Side
Every year, the Center for Disease Control comes a new health hazard for mold in a crawlspace. I wish I could show the video of Angie Hicks of Angie's List. She tore into Allergy Doctors for not telling their clients not to at least have an inspection done. This video shows why Every Crawlspace Needs an Encapsulation.

Floor Supports
Floor Supports
Depending upon the application, we use concrete pads or not.
As always, we only give the home what it needs.
Insulation
Insulation
We are happy to itemize every part of the job.
If the Insulation is wet, ruined, fallen and/or has mold all over it, we remove it.
Google "The cost or removing fiberglass insulation from a crawlspace. "You will find the national average to be $1.08 per square foot. We charge a fraction of that, and we can haul it away or bag it up and leave it with you.
At the homeowner's option, we can install 1.5" - 2.0" foam board to the exterior walls
Insulating Band Joists
Insulating Band Joists
During our inspection, we check to see if there is air loss through the ban joists.

We also use open cell foam. Click on the button below to see the results of insulating with foam.
