The condition of your crawl space can have a significant impact on the structural integrity, health, and comfort of your home. That’s why our team at United Structural Systems provides professional and reliable crawl space repair services tailored to address a variety of structural issues.

Our team of licensed and insured technicians specializes in resolving crawl space concerns, from moisture and mold issues to sagging floors and foundation problems.

Complete Solutions for Crawl Space Damage

Repair

Over time, crawl spaces can develop structural issues due to moisture, wood rot, and inadequate support. USS specializes in repairing and reinforcing floor joists, beams, and other structural components to restore stability. Our solutions include installing adjustable steel supports, replacing deteriorated wood, and addressing mold-related damage to protect your home's foundation.

Encapsulation

Crawl space encapsulation is a long-term solution to moisture problems that cause mold, pest infestations, and structural decay. USS installs a heavy-duty vapor barrier, and seals cracks and vents to provide comprehensive protection. This process creates a controlled environment, improving air quality and enhancing the overall durability of your home.

Waterproofing

Water intrusion in crawl spaces leads to humidity issues, mold growth, and structural instability. USS offers comprehensive waterproofing solutions, including perimeter drains, sump pumps, and vapor barriers. By eliminating standing water and excess moisture, our waterproofing services protect your home’s structure and create a healthier, more energy-efficient living environment.

Dehumidifiers

Excess moisture in crawl spaces contributes to mold, wood rot, and poor indoor air quality. USS installs high-performance crawl space dehumidifiers to regulate humidity levels and prevent moisture damage. These dehumidifiers operate efficiently to keep the space dry, reducing the risk of allergens and delivering long-term protection.

Sump Pumps

A reliable sump pump might be needed to prevent water accumulation in your crawl space. USS installs industry-leading sump pump systems that efficiently collect and remove excess water, protecting against flooding and structural damage. Our sump pumps are equipped with backup battery options to ensure continuous operation, even during power outages.

"USS is by far the best structural company around! We decided to hire them after we'd had another company out for the same quote. The first company gave us a lot of hot air and was very demeaning. Then Bobby and the USS guys came out! I can't say enough about how incredibly professional they were!"
Sherrie J.
"Very good experience! They were punctual, professional, and very good at what they did. They did a great job, cleaned up after they were finished, and they even sowed grass seed and spread straw over the areas damaged before they left."
Anthony H.
"I highly recommend this company to everyone. The team showed up on time and they were a pleasure to work with. I have never before seen a sense of teamwork and display of professionalism like I did on this project."
