Rolling Piedmont ground where runoff collects, older farmhouses and newer builds sharing the same stubborn clay.
Sunny Side sits north of Griffin on rolling Spalding County ground. The terrain is what drives problems here. Water runs downhill and collects in the low folds, and if a house happens to sit in one of them, the crawl space becomes the collection point whether it was designed to be or not.
The soil is Piedmont clay that holds what it takes in. The housing is mixed, older farmhouses on brick piers alongside newer builds on graded pads, so on the same road we might reset century-old pier work at one address and deal with fill settlement at the next.
We start by figuring out where the water arrives from, because on this terrain it is usually surface runoff. Grade and perimeter drainage handle that. Then the structure: rotted joists and girder sections replaced, sound framing sistered, piers reset onto footings that reach past the seasonally active clay. Ground cover goes down last, and the space stays dry.
The scope is fixed before we start on a Sunny Side home, so nothing gets added once the crew is underneath.

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!
