Crawlspace Cleanup & Access Improvement – Deborah Walker, New Bern, NC

Crawlspace Problems: Debris, Moisture & Accessibility Issues

Deborah Walker’s home in New Bern, NC, had a crawlspace filled with debris, lacked a vapor barrier, and had poor accessibility. These issues left her home vulnerable to excessive moisture, potential mold growth, and structural concerns.

She wanted a cleaner, more functional space while ensuring her home remained protected from these potential hazards.

Challenges: Crawlspace Contamination & Moisture Exposure

• The crawlspace was cluttered with old debris, limiting accessibility and airflow.
• Without a vapor barrier, the area was exposed to excessive ground moisture.
• Proper access was lacking, making future inspections and maintenance difficult.

Crawlspace Repair Solution: Cleanup & Moisture Prevention

Coastal Crawlspace Foundation and Repair (CCFR) assessed Deborah’s crawlspace and provided a tailored solution to improve its condition and prevent future issues. The team:

• Cleared and removed all debris, ensuring a clean foundation.
• Installed proper access to facilitate easier inspections and future maintenance.
• Recommended a vapor barrier, although Deborah opted for an alternative moisture-control solution.

While a full encapsulation was suggested as the best long-term protection against moisture and mold, Deborah appreciated that CCFR presented her with different options without pressuring her into the most expensive solution.

Customer Experience: Professional, Transparent, & Efficient Service

Deborah discovered CCFR through a Google search and was immediately impressed with their responsiveness. Within 24 hours of submitting an online request, she received a call to schedule her appointment.

She noted that Derek, her design specialist, was knowledgeable and thorough in his assessment.

This allowed her to make an informed decision that best suited her budget and needs.
