Fixing Your Crawl Space Pays for Itself
One could argue that it costs absolutely nothing to fix a crawl space since it saves you so much money each month in energy costs. It also saves you from having to pay for costly rot and mold repairs. One could even argue that it actually pays to fix your crawl space since you will save more than it costs in the long run.
There is an investment up front to have the work done to repair your crawl space, but the savings really add up over the years. There are variables to consider such as the size of your crawl space, the height, how much drainage work you may need, the sump, etc. A complete system in a large home could cost much more than that.
However, a recent study found that homeowners who properly fix their vented dirt crawl spaces can save 15%-20% on their heating and air conditioning costs. CleanSpace is one of those things that you are going to pay for whether you get it or not. It’s a no-brainer! Properly fixing your crawl space is probably the smartest and most financially rewarding home repair you’ll ever make.
