As you can see from the above problem I had done everything imaginable to stop the humidity in the home..This crawl Space problem is everywhere.  People dont realize there is a solution to this problem.  I even placed 5 damp rid bags throughout the home and had 2 Trane A/C put in.  The A/C is only good for pulling out a certain amount of humidity and ours was doing all it could.
So in summary this is what I had done to stop the humidity.  1) placed 6 ml poly from end to end of crawl space 2) purchased dehumidifer to pull water out 3) purchased 2 new Trane A/C and 4) placed damp rid bags throughout the home.
None of this worked...I was gone for a week and the smell upon entering the home was stunning.  Metal was rusting and meldew was forming on cabnits.  Something had to be done...I called my Trane A/C manager and he told me I had to seal the home.

 I called AFC and they came out within the next week.  They measured the complete crawl space and recommended placing 20 ml poly not only from end to end of the crawl space but up the walls and around any wires pipes or anything else that could bring in water or outside air.  They have run this plastic up the wall and completely sealed the entire crawl space.  They also put drainage pipes under the plastic to pull any water that might  seeping in.  There is also a large dehumidifer that runs directly to the sump pump along with the drainage pipes form directly to this sump pump...the sump pump then drains any fluid directly out of the crawl space...
What do we have now...one week later my in house dehumidifier is running at 40% humidity and I dont even empty this every day.  The damp rid bags are now empty.  This happened by the second day.  You will be shocked how well these people do their job.
$11,000 is a lot of money.  But there is no one better.  The job is done right the first time.  I didnt want to spend this amount of money and then it still not work...the crew came out completely cleaned out the crawl space and carried it off both days...this is a 2 day operation.  You never see the crew.  When you do they are polite and professional.  They are under your home sealing up the crawl space..they got here by 8:30 and didnt leave till 7p.  The salesman in the beginning will give you a catalogue that will completely show you what your crawl space looks like and what and reason you are experiencing this probem.  If nothing else get this catalogue.  Read it thourghly and you will see this is no gimmic.  These people call several times the next week to insure you are happy with the work...The saleman is not pushy...This is completely up to you..
As you can see I did evrything that is possible to stop the moisture in my home.  There is no short cut and you cant do this yourself..they have been doing this for over 20 years.
If you want the job done right.  If you want to stop the smell and humidity in your home call AFS.  You will not be disappointed.  This humidity can also cause illness, mold and meldew...STOP it today..call AFS...
I am 100% satisfied with the professional manner everyone at AFS showed...They make sure you are 100% satisfied with the job they do for you...

"We had them come out and divert water from the corners of our house and install a French drain. They cut a hole in the fence, never came back to bury the drain and the water still piles up and sits against our house. We are are to have to call another company to come out and re-do the service."

FAQs for egress window installation projects in Birmingham, AL

The primary installation of an egress window usually takes about three days. Additional time may be needed for excavation, wall cutting, and finishing work, especially if structural modifications are involved. The timeline also depends on the window's availability and proper sizing.

Yes, improper installation can compromise your home's foundation and structural integrity. To prevent costly damage and ensure safety, it's essential to hire a qualified professional who can install the egress window correctly.
