Foundation repair companies in Raleigh spend most of their time under houses. The 15 businesses on this page lean heavily toward crawl space work, with a smaller group that also reaches basements, bowing walls and sinking slabs. Many of them work across the Triangle, so a Raleigh address is often one stop on a route that also takes in Durham, Cary and Chapel Hill. Free inspections or estimates are common across the page, and financing is offered by several of the larger names.
Crawl space repair is the work a Raleigh homeowner is most likely to be offered. Crawl Space Brothers, Crawlspace House LLC and Crawlspace Medic of Raleigh all cover encapsulation, vapor barriers, dehumidifiers and sump pumps. Crawlspace Medic of Raleigh installs 16-mil vapor barrier and interior French drains, and it repairs sagging floors with drop girders and concrete block piers on dug footings. Live Green Inc. seals crawl spaces too, and it also insulates homes and tests for radon.
NC State Extension gives a plain yardstick for this kind of work. Its Mold and Moisture Checklist says that at a minimum a crawl space should have a 6 to 8 mil plastic or vapor barrier covering the soil, and that humidity should be kept down, and it suggests a dehumidifier when it climbs too high. That is the problem most of the crawl space businesses here are built around. Crawlspace Medic of Raleigh, Crawl Space Brothers and Revive Crawlspace Restoration all list dehumidifiers and vapor barriers among their crawl space services, and Crawl Space Brothers adds insulation and mold removal.
