Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation in Northern North Carolina
Do your floors feel bouncy and uneven, or have you noticed musty, unpleasant odors that don’t seem to go away? If your Northern North Carolina home was built on top of a crawl space, there could be many unknown hazards lurking beneath your feet. Rotting wood, mold, and pest infestations are some of the dangers that affect the health and safety of your home and family.
Put a stop to crawl space problems for good with the help of local professionals. Our team at Tar Heel Basement Systems has been repairing and encapsulating crawl spaces throughout Northern North Carolina for 20 years, and we are ready to help you create a safer and healthier living environment, as well.
The Tar Heel Basement Systems Process
Crawl Space Problems in Northern North Carolina
Most crawl spaces are cramped, dark, dingy, and nasty, so we do not recommend that you venture into this area beneath your Northern North Carolina home to look for problems. However, you can keep an eye out for sagging floors, mold, increased pest activity, elevated humidity, and musty odors throughout the rest of your house. During a free inspection, our experts will check for those same issues as well as ineffective vapor barriers, wet insulation, wood rot, loose crawl space doors, open vents, condensation, and leaking water.
Causes of Crawl Space Damage in Northern North Carolina
Water and humidity are at the heart of what causes crawl space problems. Many Northern North Carolina locations experience excessive humidity during the summer, as well as frequent spring and summer rains and heavy winter snow. The humid air, rain, and snowmelt runoff get into your home through open crawl space vents. In a naturally damp crawl space, this sets the stage for mold growth, wood rot, and pest infestations. These dangers will not be confined to the crawl space, but will also impact your main living environment, as they are carried up in the air courtesy of the stack effect. Overly wet dirt crawl space floors can lead to sinking structural supports, and over spanned floor joists also will not be able to properly support the house.
Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation Solutions in Northern North Carolina
Every house in Northern North Carolina is different, as are their crawl spaces, so each one will need its own personalized set of repair and encapsulation solutions. At Tar Heel Basement Systems, we offer a variety of solutions that your home will benefit from including waterproofing with crawl space drains, drainage matting, and sump pumps; encapsulation with vapor barriers, airtight vent covers, and doors; crawl space supports; thermal insulation; and dehumidification. Everything we install is fully customizable, manufactured in the USA, and protected by long-lasting, transferrable warranties.
Why Choose Tar Heel Basement Systems?
Just because you can’t see your crawl space doesn’t mean it isn’t an important piece of your Northern North Carolina home. Its condition has a significant impact on the health and safety of the rest of your house, as well as your family. Fixing any problems within this area will enhance your home’s structural integrity and value, as well as your overall quality of life. However, we do not recommend you take this on by yourself.

Today, Tar Heel Basement Systems raised and stabilized my front concrete walkway, and it was an excellent contracting experience. The crew of Jess W. And Zach B. were punctual, called in advance with their ETA, and were professional and competent at their craft. They explained what they would be doing, completed the work being careful of my property, and ensured my satisfaction with the finished repair. I highly recommend them for concrete lifting and stabilization.

This is just in the beginning stages. What I am rating the company on currently is the Certified Field Inspector John Dounoucos. John has been to our home twice. The first time was last week to learn what my concerns were and then quote me on the work that was needed. The first thing I would like to mention is John arrived on time and was very thorough and went over all the processes required. I told John I would be getting a second quote before making any decisions and he was good with that. The one thing that means the most to me is, John was NOT pushy, there was NO hard sell and NO you have to sign now or the price could change. John followed up with a text a few days later and we had just finished with our second quote. The price from the second company was fairly even, but I liked John's approach and the scope of work for this project. Looking forward to seeing how the job goes! I feel confident it will meet the high standards John outlined for us!

Just completed installation of our basement system. The crew that did the work (James B, Trent E, Marion H, and James Wm) were excellent and kept us informed of each step in the installation and always answered any questions. They cleaned up at the end of each day and double checked after completing the job to make sure everything was clean. Thank you for sending a great crew to do our job. Alberto

First I met with Jeff about Crawlspace encapsulation. He discovered 2 rotten floor Joice. Replacement of those as well as encapsulation was very reasonable. They sent out Andy and Elijah who were very efficient and considerate. The other half of the space was an open basement area. The main front wall was so wet mortar was easing out. Jeff recommended a french drain with a pump. Edward and Jeremy were not only respectful but explained every step . Thank you Tarheel Basement Crew !!

Incredible experience working with Groundworks (formerly known as Tarheel Basement)- they were incredibly responsive and easy to work with, and saved the day for my clients with a major repair needed on their home to sell. Not only was their customer service awesome, but they were priced significantly better than other foundation companies. Matt Cotte worked directly with me and was such a huge help in determining the best route for my clients to take repair wise on a large scale project. He was quick to come out and provide multiple quotes and explain them in thorough detail. I received multiple updates throughout the process for peace of mind and clarity. I cannot recommend Groundworks enough!

I was extremely satisfied with the professionalism and hard work that Adam Canter (lead), Tim Witherspoon and Ryan Oldman displayed. They worked well together to complete the job on time and above expectations. I was impressed with the systems but even more impressed with the way it was installed, the efforts to control the dust and the cleanup that occurred throughout the job. I would suggest you ask for this crew by name. I had the work quoted by others but there was no warranty included. I think the extra money spent was well worth the quality, warranty and included follow-up inspections. The lifting peer systems installed closed the cracks in the brick veneer on the length of 3 sides of the house as planned. I observed the installation of the wall braces and could see the immediate reduction in bowing of wall. Very happy with results.

Jacob did an excellent job & kept my mom informed during the whole process. Although it was very pricy, it was well worth the money saved on the electricity & fixed water issues under the crawl space.

I felt like a kid on Christmas morning when Felipe, Andres and Nestor finished my crawlspace! They were great and even let my son and I "help" with the process. Everything was tested and they even cleaned up any mess that might have been left. I would recommend them to anyone who is thinking about fixing your crawlspace!

Tae. S, Edwin. C, and James. T handled my encapsulation, dehumidifier install, and sump pump install and they did an excellent job everything looks clean and well done these men definitely take pride in their work. Tarheel was willing to work with me in order to make things a little more affordable, with me doing some of the work up to the date of my install since I like to DIY to save money. and I’m very happy with the finished result. They are a little bit on the pricier side but with the quality of work and the quality of material they use I think its more then reasonable. There are multiple instances I’ve heard of other contractors / companies that would “provide” a similar service but would do it with cheap material and also do the bare minimum if even that in order to just take your money. You can’t go wrong with Tarheel. Cant recommend them enough. Almost forgot it was also a pleasure to work with Jason, when he came to give me the estimate. He also was the one to make suggestions on things I could do myself in order for me to try and keep the price a little lower and was very helpful throughout the entire process as I had a lot of questions for him.

So I spent a LOT of money to ensure my crawl space was properly protected and encapsulated. I had both Charles and DJ who worked non stop to complete the entire job within a day. They did an excellent job and helped me inspect the crawl space myself (yes I crawled around, sheesh!) These guys were hard working, thoughtful and diligent! I am pleased with the thoroughness of their work. I also passed the City inspection without issue. Thank you Charles and DJ!!
