We did an encapsulation job in Englewood a few months back. Everything looked great, system was working perfectly. Then the customer called - she had water coming in by her crawl space door.
So we came out, found an unsealed conduit pipe running through the wall, sealed it up. Problem solved. Or at least we thought it

I'm out in Farragut looking at a crawl space that's got some issues. Fungal growth on the main beam, critters tearing up the insulation, moisture problems. Standard stuff I see all the time. But here's what makes this one different - it's a tall crawl space. Nice to work in, sure. But that height changes everything ab

Just wrapped up a job in Decatur, about an hour south of Knoxville. The house? Brand new. Like, just-built new. And we were already out there fixing foundation cracks, dealing with standing water, and treating fungal growth. That's the thing about new construction - people assume everything's perfect because it's new

I'm out here in Decatur finishing up work on a crawl space, and honestly, this job bothers me more than most. This house is brand new. Less than a year old.

Now, when most people see standing water like that, they think, "Okay, I've got a water probl

I was out in Alcoa today doing a crawlspace inspection, and I found something I see way too often in older homes. The customer had called me out because they were having some foundation issues. Another company - one of those big billboard companies - had already been out to install helical piers. But they didn't lift

I'm out here in Knoxville installing a radon system for a customer who just bought a house. The radon levels came back high during inspection, so they called us to handle it. But when I got down into the crawlspace, I realized it had already been encapsulated by the biggest competitor in the area. And it was a mess.

I was in Maryville recently doing an inspection—standing water in the crawlspace, fungal growth, insulation falling apart. The usual signs of moisture winning for a while. I was preparing a quote for drainage, a sump pump, and encapsulation when I took a closer look at the crawlspace door. At first glance, it looked d
