Signs we hear about
- A soft spot in the kitchen or bathroom floor
- A hallway that dips in the middle
- Doors that started sticking
- Visible sag in a beam when you look under the house
What we do
We inspect each post, pier and beam under the affected area and explain what's causing the problem. Repairs can include replacing rotted posts, adding support under long spans, replacing failed piers and tying everything together with metal connectors. In very low crawl spaces, a dig out may be needed to make room.
Wet valley, wet wood
Castle Rock sits on the Cowlitz River in a wet part of the state. Wood in a damp crawl space is more likely to rot, so we check the ground cover and drainage as part of any structural repair and recommend a vapor barrier if it's needed.
What drives the cost in Castle Rock
- How many posts, piers and beam sections are damaged
- Clearance under older homes
- Whether piers can be reused
- Moisture fixes so repairs last
- Insulation that has to come down to reach framing
We list each item separately so you can prioritize if needed.
Short-term and long-term
If a support has failed badly, we'll recommend addressing it promptly. Other items — a slightly sagging beam that isn't changing, a pier that could be better — may be fine to schedule later. We'll be straight about which is which, so you can plan without being rushed into everything at once.
