What's happening when you see us digging a trench around a crawlspace?
That trench can be part of a drainage system designed to collect and redirect water before it becomes a bigger problem.
But trenching isn't automatically the answer for every wet crawlspace.
First, we need to understand the source of the water, how it's entering the crawlspace, and where it needs to go.
Depending on the situation, a crawlspace drainage system may work alongside a sump pump and other moisture-control measures.
This is the kind of problem that needs to be evaluated crawlspace by crawlspace.
Guardian Home Services provides free crawlspace inspections throughout Middle Tennessee.
