About Walsh Crawl Space and Structural Repair

I don't do reviews often. But in this case it is necessary. I am TOTALLY Satisfied with our Foundation Reconstruction!! After a water drain broke in our crawlspace, the floor joists rotted to the point of almost failing. Walsh came out and inspected the damage and gave us a quote, which included things we didn't know we needed until it was explained to us. A BIG thank you to AARON & CORWIN the crew that busted their tail's and did a FANTASTIC job! They answered all our questions, worked without taking brakes and "chit chatting"! I'm old school and I have not seen men work that hard in a long time! I can not say enough good things about them!! I totally recommend Walsh Crawl Space and Structural Repair!!!!

Due to recent weather in my area we experienced 4 inches of rain over a period of time and an 8 hour power outage. I was able to hear the alarm going off under my house letting me know the sump pump was not working during the outage but as soon as the power was restored, i did not hear the alarm anymore. I had the misfortune to have another company go under my house following this event regarding other services and he came out telling me of all the issues he saw with standing water all throughout. I contacted Regional and Tim Barco, with Regional, paid me a timely visit, went under my house, checked out my system, took pictures and took the time to explain to me what he saw. My pump was working properly, as was my dehumidifier and I did not have any standing water under my house. I have complete confidence in Tim and Regional to take care of my needs in this area.

Walsh Crawl Space did major structural remediation to our 100 year old house, and completed a full encapsulation of our crawlspace. I found it helpful that the same person, Mary, was the primary contact for the job. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and a reliable source of information for the nature of the project, timing, etc. The Walsh workers were professional, pleasant and very hard workers, we could hear them pounding and working through the day in the hot summer. They followed the engineer's specs and they delivered a sound and pristine crawlspace.

I had issues with water intrusion from a below grade brick garage in a recently purchased house. I also had drainage issues from a sloped yard. The studs and cement board were rotted out and the insulation was a mess from being periodically wet since the house was built 40 years ago. They had to rip out all the paneling, studs, insulation, workbench and attached stairs that went to the finished attic. They treated the interior walls with a mold treatment, replaced the studs, cement boards, insulation and had to work around existing wiring. They removed and disposed of all construction debris. They did a beautiful job that passed inspection the first time code enforcement came by. They also installed a French drain, waterproofed the exterior of the garage that was below grade and installed drainage for the gutters. I also had an area dug out for a rain garden to slow the runoff and add a nice planting bed. We added an overflow pipe that runs to the street to avoid any flooding issues with my neighbor’s yard which has a steep slope at our shared property line. I have not filled in the rain bed with dirt and plants yet and I can easily monitor the drainage rates and check for any issues. We had an inch of rain on Saturday in about an hour. The rain garden did not overflow and drained to below the overflow pipe in about 20 minutes. I am very pleased! They seeded the yard and put out straw and/or erosion mats. They did all of this work when it was above 90 degrees every day. The crew was professional, courteous and worked extremely hard in grueling conditions Even in this heat, the grass is growing and about 2 inches tall in most areas they reseeded. We also had to enter my neighbor’s yard to install the French Drain in an area near the property line. The neighbors had a copy of the site plan and the contract and agreed verbally and through text to the work being done. We scheduled the work during their vacation ( which my neighbor supplied in writing through text, so yes they did agree to this) to avoid disruption to their lives as much as possible. When they got home and saw the amount of disruption to their backyard they became very upset, which was understandable, even though they agreed to the work. The disturbed part of their weedy, unkempt back yard was reseeded with straw and erosion mats, which was what was agreed to per the contract, which they saw and agreed to prior to the job. I immediately told them through text I would apply sod to the disturbed area in their yard in order to appease them and keep good relationships with my immediate neighbors. I also called and offered to come over and talk to them to resolve this. They ignored my call and have yet to talk to me by phone or in person about any of this. They would not accept the offer of sod from me and became, vindictive, and abusive to me and the contractor. They sent numerous texts over about a four day period and cursed at the contractor’s administrative assistant/scheduler . They threatened lawsuits to me and Walsh over the phone to the admin/scheduler at Walsh. They later said they did not threaten to sue. You make up your mind who you believe. I offered to redo their yard in reply to their first complaint about the yard. After several days of unnecessary and asinine text drama from my neighbor, the owner of Walsh Crawl Space went to their front door to try to resolve this. He brokered a deal where they would accept 650 square feet of installed sod in their back yard. A deal I offered them for days ago, which they declined. 🤬 He and I split the cost even though they agreed with the original plan of seeding and erosion control. The sod company had to scrape up beautiful, newly sprouted grass to install the sod. Walsh also supplied them with a hose and timer to keep the sod watered. Without his help, there would have been no resolution with this issue. Neighborly relations have completely broken down , but I have nothing but stellar things to say about Walsh Crawl Space and his staff.

Walsh installed a French drain ( approx. 170 ft. Long) and 2 sump pumps in our crawl space. Walsh sent Matt & Rob to do the installation. No one could ask for a better crew. They were diligent and very professional. They answered all of my concerns with great patience. It was a tough job as it took about a week to dig out the trench. The space was extremely tight which presented additional challenges. They even took the initiative to built a platform to protect the landscape around the Crawlspace as they knew that was a big concern for us. Mary in the office was prompt and precise with the paperwork which only enhanced the experience. I would highly recommend this company should the need arise

Fantastic service from start to finish. The foundation on my house was trashed. Called them after two other companies backed out of the job, they came, looked at it, said they could do it. Not only did they start a few days earlier than they said, they finished pretty quickly. Chris, Rob and Matt were professional, friendly, and fantastic. Any questions I had were answered, great communication the whole time. They worked hard and did a great job. I would definitely recommend them.

Great work by Walsh on crawlspace moisture mitigation. Vapor barrier, dehumidifiers and piers installed in timely manner. Professional workers who took time to explain things and talked through options in the invoice where I had concerns. Moisture reads in house have dropped significantly in the house. Great work and would recommend them again.

Walsh Crawlspace was nothing short of amazing during our entire process of having foundation work done. From the initial call to receive a quote on the work we needed done to the completion of the project. We called multiple companies for crawl space quotes and not one came close to matching the customer service and speediness of Walsh. Walsh came out the next day, assessed the work we wanted done, and gave us a quote within an hour, at an incredibly reasonable price. Our mortgage lender required us to have crawl space work done prior to closing and Mary made sure we were scheduled as quickly as possible, updated us every step of the way, and was super communicative any time I had a question. The crew who did the work was a pleasure to deal with and completed it with high quality. The crew also took detailed pictures for us to make sure the mortgage company had all the information we needed. I truly couldn’t be more pleased with Walsh and HIGHLY recommend them to anyone needing foundation/crawl space work!
