Faced with a soggy dilemma in their New Haven home, one homeowner was battling unwanted water in their crawl space—a common issue that can lead to bigger headaches if left unattended. As you can see in the before photo, the water made the area less usable and posed a risk to the home's foundation. That's where we stepped in. We installed CleanSpace, transforming the crawl space into a dry, clean, and much more inviting space, as evident in the after photo. Notice how CleanSpace not only solved the water problem but also beautified the area, providing a lasting solution that aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver both an exceptional customer experience and dependable results.
David C. in Chesapeake, OH, was experiencing standing water in his crawl space after heavy rains. This standing water was a breeding ground for different bugs and insects, as well as creating a musty, moldy smell in the air throughout the home.
Our Solution Specialist went out and completed a full inspection of the property where he then quoted a fix for David. Once our foreman, Jaden A., and crew arrived, they were able to complete renovate the crawl space area to be a dry, clean space. This fixed David's water issue and prevented this from happening again in the future.
Mike M. was experiencing moisture issues in his crawlspace. The customer's goal was to keep the space clean and dry.
Common signs of a crawlspace problem include musty odors, poor indoor air quality, feeling of dampness in the living area, buckled hardwood floors, mold growth, allergic reactions and worsened asthma symptoms, wood rot, increased energy usage and bills, and pest infestations.
Our Solution Specialist quoted a full CleanSpace Encapsulation, Drainage Matting, Vent Blocking, Silver Glo Insulation, and a Smart Sump pump. We installed the full encapsulation designed to combat crawlspace issues and provide the customer with peace of mind.

Recently, a homeowner from Amma, WV contacted us at Alford Foundation & Crawl Space Repair with concerns about their home’s sagging floors and doors that wouldn’t open or close properly. Understanding how troubling and unsafe this can feel, we were quick to assure them that they were in good hands. Following our straightforward process, our Appointment Center team promptly scheduled a home inspection.
One of our expert Solution Specialists visited the home, conducted a thorough examination of the foundation, and identified the underlying issue. It was clear that the foundation had settled over time, leading to the issues the homeowner was experiencing. To provide a reliable and lasting solution, we recommended the installation of a Helical Pier system. Our installation process kicked off with a clear explanation of the work to the homeowner. Then, our skilled production team, comprising a foreman and dedicated installers, got to work seamlessly. We installed the Helical Pier - a steel pier anchored firmly into stable, load-bearing soil beneath the foundation. This not only lifts but also stabilizes the foundation, directly addressing the problem of sagging floors and sticking doors.
Upon completion, the transformation was noticeable. The floors felt solid underfoot, and doors swung open without a hitch. The homeowner remarked on the peace of mind our swift and clear process had brought them. Importantly, with Helical Piers now underpinning their home, they felt confident the solution was not just immediate but enduring. Our close-out of the job included a thorough clean-up, leaving the homeowner’s property as tidy as we found it, if not tidier.
