Bare red clay under older Hardwick homes breathes moisture into the floor every day. A real barrier stops it at the ground.
Crawl under most Hardwick homes and you find one of two things. Bare orange clay, or a sheet of thin plastic somebody put down decades ago that is now torn, bunched against the piers and covered in dirt. Neither one keeps ground moisture out of the house.
Baldwin County clay stays damp well below the surface, especially on lots that slope toward a creek or toward the Oconee. That moisture rises constantly as vapor. With nothing sealing the ground, it moves straight up into the joists, the subfloor and eventually the air you breathe in the living room.
We pull out the old plastic, rake and level the ground, then roll out a heavy reinforced barrier that overlaps at every seam and runs up the foundation walls. Seams get taped and piers get wrapped. Every Hardwick job starts with a free inspection, photos and a written price.
Hardwick 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!
