How Crawl Space Guru Works
Five steps from the first look to a dry finish, and what to expect at each one.
From the first look to a dry finish
- 1Step 1
The visit
A technician goes under the house with lights, a camera and a moisture meter and looks at everything: soil, walls, joists, vents, pipes and insulation.
- 2
Step 2The readings
Moisture in the wood, humidity in the air and the dew point are measured, so findings come with numbers and not guesses.

Step 3The plan
You get photos, readings and a ranked plan: what to fix first, what can wait and what to watch.

Step 4The work
Water is handled first, then cleaning and repairs, then liner, insulation and humidity control, all by one crew.

Step 5The checkup
We test the system with you, leave readings and notes and come back once a year if you want a checkup.
Before, during and after
- Before we visitClear the access area, note what you have noticed and find the breaker panel and the water shutoff. Photos of the vents and foundation help.
- At the inspectionA technician goes under the house with a camera and a meter, then walks you through the photos and readings with no pressure and no jargon.
- While we workWe protect floors and the access area, handle water first and tell you right away if we find something unexpected.
- When we finishWe test the system with you, leave readings, photos and notes and clean up. Anything left over gets a clear next step.

How soon can someone visit?

Do I need to be home?
It helps for the walkthrough. In between, we just need access to the crawl space.
Will the plan change after I approve it?
If we find something unexpected, like a hidden leak or damaged wood, we talk with you before changing anything.
