Crawl Space Repair for Centerville homeowners
Centerville is a compact city squeezed between Warner Robins and Bonaire, and almost all of it was built between the early eighties and the mid two thousands. That matters underneath. Those neighborhoods went up on graded lots, and graded lots mean fill, and fill keeps compacting for years after the closing papers are signed.
The soil profile does not help. Sandy topsoil over dense clay means rain gets in easily and then stops. Under a crawl space that shows up as ground that stays dark and cool through the summer, which is exactly the condition that softens joist ends and grows mold on the underside of a subfloor.
So a Centerville repair usually has two halves. Piers that have dropped into soft fill get reset onto footings that reach undisturbed ground. Framing that has gone soft gets cut back and replaced, and spans that are still sound get sistered for strength. Then we seal the ground, run drainage, and let the space dry out for good. Everything gets photographed and priced in writing first.
Here is what our crawl space repair work includes on a Centerville home, in town or out toward the Houston County line.
