Crawl Space Digout Services

Code mandates that crawl spaces have at least 18 inches of clearance, but many are too narrow for effective work. If your crawl space is cramped, Dr. Crawlspace’s Crawl Space Digout Services can expertly excavate it without affecting the stability of your home’s piers and foundation. This allows space for essential plumbing, HVAC, and insulation tasks. Our digout services ensure your crawl space not only meets code requirements but is also functional for all necessary installations and repairs.

    I Highly recommend Dr Crawlspace. High quality work and excellent service. Quanah was attentive and professional on the front end, Curtis and the crew did really good work, and the office was efficient and accurate. Highly recommended for rodent damage mitigation and complete crawl space renewal.

    I was worried about mold and humidity in my crawl space so I gave Dr. Crawlspace to do an inspection. Quanah came out and took a look. He found a few minor issues and noted that my humidity monitor was too close to the sump pump and giving an inflated value. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and awesome to work with. I would absolutely work with their company again.
