I AM VERY PLEASED WITH YOUR SERVICE. THE SALESMAN DID NOT TRY AND SELL ME SOMETHING I DID NOT NEED NOR WANT.THE INSTALLATION PERSON WAS GREAT. HE EXPLAINED WHAT HE WAS DOING SO I FELT COMFORTABLE ABOUT THE JOB. HE MADE A COMMENT SEVERAL TIMES IF ANY PROBLEMS, TO CONTACT COMPANY SO THEY CAN MAKE IT RIGHT. THAT MAKES ME FEEL THAT YOU CARE ABOUT THE JOB YOU DO.
By Rosie
I have a musty and smelly crawlspace. I thought I would have to spend a lot of money, but we started with just the Sanidry Dehumidifier. It works great! I will never be with out one in my home again.

Your entire team was superb. Everything exceeded my expectations
By Laura
Everything was very neat and clean. There has been no mold smell. The basement crawl looks very neat. The men cleaned up so well, I did not even know they had been here. I waited to send this survey to see if any rain has poured in any of the areas like before. It has now rained several times - no water in the lower area of the house - and no longer have a smell. Good Job!

Good crew. Friendly and respectful to each other. That in itself looks very good to the customer. A well stocked truck on sight is a great advantage for time spent on jobsite.

    This Winona Lake home was experiencing sagging insulation, and a damp and musty smell in their crawlspace.  They were also concerned with how cold their floors were in the winter.  Our Design Specialist decided it would be best to install a CleanSpace Encapsualtion with drainage matting.  It really transformed this messy crawlspace!
