Crawlspace & Foundation Services in Beaufort, SC

Much of Beaufort sits on low ground near the Beaufort River and Factory Creek, so groundwater can rise into a crawlspace even when it has not rained hard. Older homes around the historic district were often built on brick piers with vented crawlspaces — a design that works only when the vents actually dry the space out. Add Lowcountry humidity and many of these crawlspaces never do.

We start by looking at how water arrives and where it stays: grading, downspouts, footing drainage, insulation condition and the wood framing above. From there the recommendation might be encapsulation, drainage, structural support, or a combination. We do not sell a package before we understand the house.
