Why Flemington homes need this, and how we do it
Flemington is a small city along US-84 and US-17, set between Hinesville and Midway on clay soil that holds water close to the surface. Its streets mix frame houses that have stood for generations with homes built in the last twenty years, and both kinds sit over crawl spaces that trap the damp the clay gives off.
The repairs follow the age of the house. In the older homes we replace sill plates and rim joists that have rotted at the foundation, sister joists weakened by termites, and rebuild subfloor under kitchens and baths. Wood posts that have decayed get replaced. In newer homes the work tends to be a plumbing leak that soaked a section of floor, insulation that has fallen out, a barrier left torn or short at the walls, or a failed sump pump. Mold on framing is cleaned and treated in both.
We then cut off the water feeding the damage. Downspouts get carried away from the foundation, low grade is corrected so the clay drains outward, and vent covers and access doors are replaced where they have broken. Sealing the space fully can be added later. After the free inspection you receive a written report with photos and a fixed price. Most Flemington repairs take one to three days.

Every crawl space repair we do in Flemington, GA follows the same checklist. Every scope is itemized before we start. A typical crawl space repair includes:

- Failed barrier, insulation, vents, access door or sump repaired or replaced

Questions Flemington homeowners ask us
My Flemington floor squeaks and gives a little near the bathroom, should I be worried?
A little give near a bathroom usually means a slow leak has softened the subfloor. We replace the soft wood from below and point you to the leak so it stays fixed.
Our house in Flemington is only ten years old, can the crawl space already need repairs?
It can. Clay here holds moisture, and a torn barrier or a small leak can do damage in a few years. The free inspection shows whether anything needs fixing yet.
My sump pump in Flemington burned out, can y'all replace it?
Yep, we replace dead sump pumps and check the drain line so the water actually leaves the yard. Then we look for any wet wood the flooding left behind.
There are black spots all over the wood under my Flemington house, what are they?
Likely mold from the damp coming off the clay. We clean and treat the framing, swap out anything that's gone soft and fix what's keeping it wet.
Will fixing my crawl space help my floors feel solid again?
That's the whole point. Once the rotted joists, sills and subfloor are replaced in your Flemington home, the floor stops giving under your feet.
“Our floors had gotten soft and the whole downstairs smelled musty. They inspected the crawl space, showed us photos of the rot and moisture, and fully encapsulated it. The smell is gone, the floors feel solid, and our humidity finally stays under control.”
