Crawl Space Repair for Bolingbroke homeowners
A crawl space that has been damp for years eventually shows it in the wood. Around Bolingbroke we find sill plates soft from rot, joists sistered by a past owner who ran out of lumber, girders sagging between piers, and termite damage along the edges where wood sits close to the soil.
The house tells you first. Floors bounce when someone walks by, a china cabinet rattles, interior doors drift out of square, and a dip forms in the middle of a room. Older farmhouses with rough sawn framing and newer homes on lighter joists both end up here once moisture has done its work.
We map the damage, shore the floor with temporary supports, and replace or sister rotted members with treated lumber. Weak or cracked piers get rebuilt or supported with adjustable steel posts on proper footings. We deal with the water that caused it, too. Photos, a written price, and a free inspection come with every visit.
Here is what our crawl space repair work includes on a Bolingbroke home, in town or out toward the Monroe County line.
