The Crawlspace Crew was created by Dillon Rivera and Harlan Gross, long-time friends who have been working in the vicinity of one another for many years. As time passed, they gained the managerial experience required to run large crews and even whole companies. At that point it was only natural that they go into business together in the area where they had a combined 11 years of experience: restoration. They have been serving the Portland/Salem areas for all these years and are committed to providing top-notch service for many years to come.
"Quick note about Ariel...the young lady that was sent to remove and replace the vapor barrier under our manufactured home. She is the hardest worker I've seen in many years. Working alone she never stopped, always had a smile and a very positive attitude...THIS YOUNG LADY IS A REAL KEEPER.."

Sump pumps last about 10 years with proper maintenance and prompt repairs. Several factors can influence your sump pump’s lifespan, such as usage, environmental conditions, and installation. Premium sump pumps with heavy-duty motors and quality components tend to last longer than lower-cost models. Pedestal sump pumps usually last longer than submersible models since they’re not constantly exposed to water.
A basement French drain is a drainage system installed in basements or around a building’s foundation to redirect water and prevent flooding. This system features a trench with a perforated pipe that catches and transports water away. These systems can crack, freeze, or clog, potentially resulting in flooding or strain on your sump pump.
You can use a sump pump in your yard to minimize pooling water and landscape damage, but it’s best used in conjunction with other drainage systems. This can include French drains, trench drains, underground downspouts, and other equipment. Proper lawn care, such as soil aeration and native plants, also aids with drainage.
