What To Expect When You Call Us
TAKING AWAY ALL THE MYSTERY BEHIND WORKING WITH CRAWL LOGIC
Ever wonder what really happens when you call someone about your crawl space?
No smoke and mirrors here - I'm going to walk you through exactly how we handle things at Crawl Logic.
Because let's be honest, nobody likes surprises when it comes to home repairs, especially when it involves the space under your house.
I get it.
Calling a contractor can feel like rolling the dice.
Will they show up?
Will they be straight with you?
Will the price suddenly double?
Let me show you how we do things differently here in Charleston.
Welcome to Crawl Logic Lowcountry!
The Initial Phone Call
First thing you'll hear? "Press 1 for inspections." That's probably going to be me on the other end. And here's something that might surprise you - one of my first questions isn't about your crawl space at all. It's "Are you planning on keeping this place?"
Why do I ask that? Simple. I need to know if you're looking for a quick fix to sell your home or if you want a solution that's built to last. Here's the truth - I'm not the cheapest option in Charleston. Not even close. (Though I'm not the most expensive either.) If you're just trying to get your house ready for sale, I'll tell you straight up that we're probably not the right fit. Because nobody looking to sell wants to pay for a pristine crawl space that's going to last 25 years.
But if you're planning to stay? Now we're talking. That's when we can have a real conversation about protecting your home for the long haul. I'll give you a rough idea of costs right up front - what encapsulation typically runs, what a sump pump might cost, insulation removal prices. Can't give you an exact number until we see what's going on under there, but I believe in giving you a clear picture of what you might be looking at.
The Inspection Process
Once we've had that initial chat, we'll send someone out to take a look - usually my guy JR, or maybe myself or Haley (we're the owners).
And here's where we do things a bit differently in Charleston: we document everything. When I say everything, I mean everything.
I'm usually the chatty one, narrating videos of every issue we find.
Haley prefers photos (he thinks I talk too much, but hey, I like people to understand exactly what's going on).
We'll show you all the moisture readings, any water issues, rodent problems - whatever we find down there.
And the best part?
We AirDrop these photos and videos right to you on the spot. No waiting, no wondering, no mysteries.
Moving Forward
If you like what you see and want to work with us, here's what happens next.
We'll send a detailed quote straight to your inbox.
Once you give us the green light, we ask for a 50% deposit.
Now, some folks think that's unusual, but here's how I see it: it's about mutual trust.
You're trusting us to do the work, we're trusting you to pay when it's done.
It's that simple.
We're usually booked a few weeks out (good work takes time), but we'll keep you in the loop about scheduling.
We'll also talk about practical stuff, like making sure you have the right electrical setup.
Need an electrician?
We can recommend one we trust, or you can use your own - totally up to you.
The Crawl Logic Difference
Here's what really sets us apart: once we're done, we don't just pack up and disappear.
We set you up with login details for sensing devices that monitor your crawl space 24/7.
If anything goes wrong, you'll know immediately - and so will we.
But my favorite part?
We actually want you to come check out the finished work.
Seriously.
We'll invite you down into your crawl space to see exactly what your investment got you.
Because by the time we're done, it won't be that scary, dirty space you were afraid to enter - it'll be clean, bright, and something we're both proud of.
