What crawl space brothers does

Crawl Space Brothers Inc. is a private, founder-led residential home services company that specializes in crawl space repair, encapsulation, waterproofing, and moisture control for single-family homeowners. The company was founded in 2019 by brothers Jacob and Matt Broussard and their brother-in-law, all of whom brought prior backgrounds in waterproofing and home improvements, and it operates as a subsidiary under Vanterra Foundation Solutions (corporate HQ in Knoxville, TN), with its operational headquarters in Charlotte, NC.

The service offering is comprehensive and vertically integrated around foundation and below-grade moisture management. Core services include crawl space encapsulation, vapor barrier installation (6, 12, and 20-mil reinforced), waterproofing (both crawl space and basement), interior and perimeter drainage systems (French drains, drain tile, sump pumps), commercial-grade dehumidifier installation (via AprilAire), vent sealing and insulation, crawl space structural repair (jacks, joist reinforcement, sagging floors), basement foundation crack repair, mold and moisture remediation, spray foam insulation, and gutter downspout extension. Underlying technology is mechanical and construction-grade — proven encapsulation techniques, physical barriers, drainage hardware, and dehumidification equipment — rather than software- or AI-enabled. The product line carries with it lifetime transferable warranties on the 12 and 20-mil vapor barriers, and the company markets a "Perfect Guarantee" backed by 5-star customer reviews and BBB accreditation.

The business model is direct-to-consumer field service: customers discover the company through SEO-optimized website content, blog, and social media (Instagram, YouTube), schedule free on-site inspections, receive transparent no-obligation estimates, and convert to project-based service agreements priced on scope, size, and access conditions. Flexible consumer financing is delivered through GreenSky Financial Services (a Goldman Sachs company). The company serves homeowners across twelve metro areas spanning North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC, with each regional office generating leads and executing installations via local crews. Revenue is a function of job count, average ticket size, and capacity per location; no revenue figures are publicly disclosed.
