So here's something you don't see every day: I'm about to show you a crawl space that isn't technically a crawl space at all. It's the entire area underneath a pool. And let me tell you, this was some of the hardest work I've ever done. If there was an award for crawl space poly work, I'd be putting this job up for it.

Got a call today to head back to a job we finished about two or three months ago. Now, before you think something went wrong with our work, let me explain what actually happened. This was a new construction project - we've been doing a lot of work with custom home builders lately, which has become a nice niche for us.

But after 15 years of crawling under Charleston homes, I've learned something important: the fanciest soluti

This is the second time I've called Whicker out to help me with my vehicle, and I had to tell you about what just happened. Because in a world where most service providers are looking for every opportunity to pad the bill, I just experienced something different - something that honestly caught me off guard.
