Homeowner Linda G. noticed sinking in her foundation, as well as cracks both inside and outside. Project Design Specialist Jon P. went out to evaluate the problem. Linda asked Jon to evaluate the whole house rather than just concentrating on the sinking area. She plans to remodel in the future, and before she makes any changes she wants to make sure the house has a solid foundation. Linda writes of Jon, "Jon was very professional and very knowledgeable. He was able to answer all the questions that I had to ask. He knew that this was only an estimate that was to be done and he never tried to force me into giving his company the job. I thank him for that. He was very good." At Saber, providing WOW! service means doing an honest evaluation without pressuring the homeowner for a sale.

Andrew C., a new homeowner in Los Angeles, faced ongoing allergies and breathing issues due to problems in the crawl space beneath his 1926-built house. Mold spores, dust mites, and other allergens were getting inside, causing coughing, wheezing, and breathing difficulties. Concerned about the bad air and potential mold growth, Andrew wanted a fix. Andrew reached out to Saber, a reputable contractor specializing in crawl space moisture solutions, for help. Saber's specialist, Brian, checked things out and found the humidity at 51.6%, which wasn't good. Brian suggested a comprehensive Crawlspace Encapsulation system to sort it out. Impressed by the explanation, Andrew agreed. Saber's team swiftly installed Clean Space Sheeting, Drains, and a Dehumidifier. This comprehensive approach stopped the moisture and made the crawl space clean and dry. In a few weeks, Saber's work changed Andrew's crawl space. The Clean Space, Drains, and Dehumidifier effectively fixed the problems and ensured they wouldn't come back. Andrew was happy and relieved that his home's air and moisture issues were solved. Now, he can live comfortably without worrying about allergens.
