How this estimate works
This check weighs what actually puts water under raised-floor homes on Wake County red clay: yard grading, where the gutters empty, what covers the crawl space floor, whether a sump pump or drain is there and working, and warning signs such as musty air, sagging insulation and cupping floors above.
It is a rough screen, not an inspection. Grading, gutters and drainage are a contractor's job; the water damage side, meaning pumping out standing water, removing wet insulation and drying the joists and subfloor, is handled by the restoration team. See crawl space water removal.
