Crawl Space Services in Opelika, AL
We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” fixes. Instead, we tailor every crawl space repair to your home’s unique needs and Opelika’s regional conditions.
Crawl Space Encapsulation
- Installs a vapor barrier along crawl space floor and walls
- Closes vents to seal out outside air and high humidity
- Helps eliminate mold, mildew, and musty indoor smells
Local Highlight:
We encapsulated a home near North 10th Street where persistent crawl space dampness was triggering allergy issues. After sealing the space and installing a dehumidifier, the homeowner reported fresher air and improved comfort.
Crawl Space Structural Repair
- Replaces or reinforces joists, beams, and girders
- Levels sagging or uneven floors
- Ideal for aging homes or those with long-term moisture damage
Why It Matters in Opelika:
Soil around Opelika tends to hold moisture, which gradually weakens wooden substructures. We stop the damage at its source and rebuild your home’s support.
Crawl Space Insulation
- Moisture-resistant insulation under floors
- Keeps floors warmer in winter and reduces HVAC strain
- Helps regulate energy costs year-round
Interior Drainage & Sump Pump Systems

- Sump pumps remove collected water before it leads to damage
- Built for Opelika’s seasonal storms and dense clay terrain
Local Highlight:
A home near Tiger Town experienced seasonal flooding in the crawl space. Our sump and drain system has kept it bone dry — even after a heavy spring storm.
