Tall farmhouse crawl spaces collect a lot over the years, and they are the easiest to clear properly.
Older Kathleen farmhouses often have crawl spaces tall enough to move around in, which means two things. More has ended up down there over the decades, and clearing it is far more practical than in a shallow space.
What we find is usually a mix. Old insulation, farm equipment nobody wanted to haul off, building material from past repairs, and animal activity, since an open rural crawl space is an easy place to get into.
The work goes quickly with headroom. Everything comes out and gets hauled away, mold-affected framing and masonry get treated, and the ground gets graded flat. On rural properties we also look at where animals are getting in, because clearing without sealing the perimeter invites the same situation back.
The scope is fixed before we start on a Kathleen home, so nothing gets added once the crew is underneath.
