At this elevation the winters bite harder, and a bare floor over a damp crawl space is where it shows.
Griffin sits higher than the rest of the area we cover and the winters are colder for it. In a mill-village house or a fifties ranch with a shallow crawl space, that difference is felt through the floor first.
What is under those floors is usually either nothing or fiberglass that has absorbed years of moisture. Heavy Piedmont clay holds water against the foundation for a week at a time, so the crawl space perimeter stays damp and any insulation near it suffers.
We take out what has failed, handle the moisture with drainage and a sealed ground cover, and then insulate the perimeter of the sealed space. That order is what makes the insulation last more than a few seasons in this soil.
Griffin homeowners get the same scope every time, priced in writing before a crew books the date.

Trench Guys came to my home and corrected a sagging kitchen floor. They did a great job and guarantee their work for 10 years! I absolutely will be calling them anytime I need help.
I don't usually write reviews but John and his crew are absolutely awesome. They did my crawl space encapsulation. I got other quotes - don't waste your time with the other guys. Outstanding service at an incredible price!
