Americrawl did a good job. Mr. Russell, the estimator who came initially, was very friendly and helpful then and in subsequent calls to answer my questions. His bid did not include cutting up and removing the old well tanks. However, when I told him that all three of my other bidders said they could cut up and remove the tanks, he checked with his manager and said they could remove them also. The entrance to my crawl space is in my kitchen. The crew who came laid down plastic on my floors, so that any dirt or mud would not get on my floors. The crew worked very hard and completed the work in about a day and a half. I was having outdoor drainage done by another company on the same day, and they coordinated the location of the sump pump discharge line outside with the other drainage work being done. The crew chief, Josh, took me down into the crawl space to show me the work that had been completed. It looked very neat and tidy. I was surprised to see, however, that one of the tanks had not been removed. They removed two old tanks but left a newer one which he thought was still in use. The well is no longer in use, but he did not ask me to check whether this third tank should also be removed. He said that this tank was still connected to pipes and he didn't want to touch the pipes - that water might enter from them. Since this was at the end of the job, I let it go. Josh confirmed that my wood was not showing any structural damage. He also said there was some mold, and I elected to have mold spray for an additional $450. Overall, Americrawl did a very good job, but I need to see how well the system works in the next heavy rain. The scheduled work date was farther out than I had hoped for, and the actual scheduled date had to be pushed back a couple of days because a piece of their equipment had broken. This was understandable.
Description of Work: Installed a crawl space drainage system, including perimeter trench and drain pipe, and a new sump pump. My crawl space had previously had no system, and was subject to flooding. Smoothed out the dirt in the crawl space, including filling in a low spot near the furnace, and put down 6 mil plastic Cleaned out debris from the crawl space, including cutting up and removing two old well tanks. Checked on the condition of my wood joists, etc., and reported back to me. Sprayed for mold.

I didn't know it was possible to jackhammer up that much concrete and not make dust everywhere. It was done quickly and efficiently, despite the ongoing rain. We didn't have to clean up ANYTHING. I've had concrete broken up in the basement of my house before and had to clean up dust for weeks. We had covered everything with plastic, and even the plastic was clean! I was absolutely amazed. It's worked wonderfully too.
Description of Work: They put a channel in the basement of the house and installed a sump pump.

It went very well. The workmen arrived on time and cleaned up after themselves before leaving. This was especially important since the access to the crawl was through the basement. We had this work performed basically to stop the excess humidity in the house and so far it has really helped. We will wait until August to decide on the recommended dehumidifier.

Asked for estimate at the Boat, Sport and Travel show. Within two weeks they contacted me for an appointment to do the estimate. The esitmate was clear and reviewed. They answered all questions I had. We received a Angie's List Discount. The work was scheduled arounf my schedule. They completed the work in about 4 hours and cleaned up after themselves. The crawlspace is very clean.

I have a pea gravel crawlspace. To make it more usable, I had Americrawl come out and use their technology to line walls and floor with water and bug-impermeable white plastic. Did the work in one day, worked hard and did excellent job. It has now been three years since install, no problems with liner and still quite satisfied with job done.
Description of Work: Sealed crawlspace in impermeable white plastic. Keeps out bugs & moisture. Now excellent area for storage, and easy to crawl on with no fear of rips, tears, etc.

Mixed. They did an excellent job on the vinyl encapsulation, but made an error on the concrete lentel work. Then, there was no return call for several months regarding the error. But, when I finally got ahold of them, they took off a significant portion of the price.

I was very pleased with all dealings with this company. They were on time for the estimate and the work. When providing the estimate they also discussed with me other work that could be done to minimize potential wetness problems with my crawlspace. However, they never pressured me to do any additional work. I would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: There was a crack in a basement wall. I had estimates from several companies and they were one of the lower estimates. They explained to me what they would do, how it would work, and how long it should take. They accomplished what they told me within the discussed timeframe. They were on time and cleaned up after they were done. Several months later I needed them again after another crack was discovered (this one was behind some drywall and couldn't be seen). Because of my positive experience the first time, I didn't bother to get any other estimates. Again, they took care of the problem as they had discussed.
