My service advisor (David Hendrickson) inspected my crawlspace and provided several options to deal with my high humidity moisture concerns. David was very thorough and did not pressure me. I was only interested in full encapsulation so we discussed the specifics and costs involved for this method and all warranties that helped me make the best decision for this project. Phase 1 of my crawlspace encapsulation project started this week with Matt & Logan removing the old insulation and vapor barrier. They were both very friendly, respectful, and worked continuously once they arrived until the job was finished. They did an excellent job with clean up and had to remove a considerable amount of material and posted the building permit required for the project. During Phase 2 James Lawson came to perform the Bora-Care treatment application to the now exposed floor joists and sub floor. Again another very friendly individual who did a great job communicating and sharing photos of the treatment results. Phase 3 started with the encapsulation team (led by Trixton) working two days to install the wall board and plastic line and setting the dehumidifier. The electrical team of Vinny & Jeff completed phase 4 which included installation of a new breaker in the panel box, a required GFCI breaker near the panel box, and the installation of four lights and an outlet for the dehumidifier. Once the electrical work was complete they tested all the circuits and powered up the dehumidifier. Vinny & Jeff took many photos they shared with me and noticed some follow up items that were documented. Phase 5 was the completion of the punch list items by John from the quality control department. John spent nearly three hours making sure everything was as promised and did a really good job. John even went around the outer perimeter of the house cleaning off all the crawlspace vent covers installed. There was one item that John did not have the right material for to complete so he made a note and a few days later Matt & Logan returned to complete the follow up list. The humidity in our crawlspace at the start up of the dehumidifier was 90% and is currently running at 46% so a huge improvement. I have had another contractor onsite for another job and he mentioned to me that he noticed the Bay Crawlspace sign in our yard and said they are the best around (which came from an independent source) which reinforced my decision. The final electrical inspection is complete and now I am just waiting on the final crawl space inspection to be complete by the county so this job can formally come to a close. I want to thank all of the workers and office staff for the courtesy, timeliness, and dedication during this project and am extremely happy with the results and glad I did my homework ahead of time researching the best contractor to encapsulate our crawl space. It is a rather expensive investment but Bay's price, reputation, and knowledge were the driving factors for us to hire them to perform the work at our home and we are happy it worked out so well. Update: All inspections by the county are complete and everything passed without issue. Naz came to collect an "after" mold sample test to compare the results post encapsulation. This closes my project and again I'm very satisfied with the quality and workmanship that Bay Crawl Space did and highly recommend them!
We recently had our crawl space encapsulated by BAY Crawl Space & Foundation Repair. Very pleased with the work the team members provided. Everyone was very professional and knowledgable regarding their work. In addition, very effective on their work and appreciated the customer interaction by showing pictures after work has been completed. If you are considering getting your crawl space encapsulated, I would recommend BAY Crawl Space. After having our crawl space fully encapsulated, we noticed some light coming through and potential growth. Chris A. and Dalton from Bay Crawl Space came out and did an excellent job sealing everything up while Chris A and Paul performed a mold test and confirmed it was not growth that we were seeing. They carefully filled all the gaps and cracks that were allowing light in and took the time to inspect the entire perimeter to ensure no additional areas were missed.
Awesome job on the Crawlspace encapsulation. Travis, Jordan and Dalton really worked well together, and did a great job despite the extreme temperatures we were having. Would highly recommend for anyone seeking to have the Crawlspace encapsulated. Would also like to give a shout out to the power team….(literally, they’re the electricians) Vinny & Jeff for a great job getting everything wired up. They were very knowledgeable, polite and you could tell they worked together quite a bit by how efficient they were.
