No Excuses, Just Solutions: A Transparent Look at Crawl Space Repairs

Real Problems. Real Accountability.

WE BELIEVE IN OWNING OUR MISTAKES

Any company can look good when everything goes perfectly.


But the true measure of a crawl space company isn't whether they ever face problems - it's how they handle those problems when they come up.


Today, I want to share a real situation we're dealing with in several Lowcountry crawl spaces, because I believe in being completely honest with our community.


During recent inspections, we discovered something concerning: tape seams coming loose in several crawl spaces we installed less than a year ago.


This isn't normal, especially for us.


The first crawl space we ever did is still holding strong today, with perfect tape seams.


But in these recent jobs, we're seeing issues we've never encountered before.

Welcome to Crawl Logic Lowcountry!


The Situation

Here's what we found: In a handful of crawl spaces we worked on during the same time period, some tape seams are failing. The encapsulation itself is working beautifully - these spaces are dry, clean, and one homeowner is even using it for storage now. But the tape issue needs fixing, and we're getting right to it.


After investigating, we believe our supplier changed their tape formula or manufacturer without telling us. We've used the same supplier and materials for years without issues, but something clearly changed during this period. The problem only shows up in crawl spaces we did during a specific timeframe, using that batch of materials.




Our Response

When we spot an issue like this, we don't waste time pointing fingers or making excuses. We get to work fixing it. Every single affected crawl space is getting repaired at no cost to our customers. That's not just good business - it's the only right way to handle it.



Why do we do this? Because when you hired us to fix your crawl space, you paid good money to solve the problem once and for all. You didn't sign up for ongoing issues or surprise repair bills. That's why we back every job with real monitoring, annual inspections, and a warranty that actually means something.

What This Means for Homeowners

When you're choosing a crawl space company, the warranty matters more than the price. Here's why:

  • Problems can show up months or even years after installation
  • Materials can have hidden issues, like we discovered
  • Some companies disappear when problems arise
  • Others charge extra for "warranty work"



The real test isn't the initial installation - it's what happens next. Are you getting regular inspections? Does your contractor actually show up when you call? Will they fix issues without charging you more?

The Bigger Picture

This situation shows exactly why we insist on annual inspections and use advanced monitoring systems in every crawl space we work on. We want to catch any issues early, before they can cause real problems. That's also why we keep detailed records of every job, every material we use, and every inspection we perform.



A properly encapsulated crawl space should last for decades. But that only happens with ongoing care and a company that stands behind their work. One of our affected customers went from having an unusable crawl space to using it for storage - even with this tape issue - because they know we're handling any problems that come up.

Let me tell you a story that happens too often in Charleston. A friend from my jiu-jitsu gym called about mold in his crawl space. When he mentioned his crawl space was already encapsulated, I knew something wasn't right. What followed was a six-week nightmare with one of the big local companies - the kind of story that makes contractors like me frustrated and homeowners rightfully angry.

Imagine finding hundreds of square feet of storage space you didn't know you had - right under your feet. In Charleston and the Lowcountry, where many homes lack basements and attics are often too hot for storage, a properly encapsulated crawl space can be a game-changing solution to your storage needs.

In crawl space work, the smallest details often have the biggest impact on your home's protection. After spending years under thousands of Lowcountry homes, I've learned this lesson time and time again. Sometimes it's something as simple as where we place a door handle that makes the difference between a system that lasts and one that fails.
