If anyone is planning a crawl space and their neighbors have basements
then it is difficult to sell it at a higher price. This is a price perception
issue since many people feel that having a full basement gives them more
room even if it is used only for storage purposes. But the potential
of the house is always there for someone to finish the basement.
Measure of home building basements
Basements need to be cool which is important in hot climates; they add
importance to the home and provide more room. Drainage is important for
basements and crawl spaces - as anyone may want water in these locations.
Generally slabs and crawl spaces are less expensive than building full
basements, especially in conditions where there are a great number of
rocks to be removed. But in some areas it is difficult to provide a basement
because of presence of solid rocks. If any person who needs a lot of
storage or likes to have a basement workspace, then a crawl space or
a slab is definitely not the type of foundation that he should consider.
Methods of treatment
Suppose there is no basement then wiring and plumbing should be in the
walls or ceilings. Space is also required for the furnace and the water
heater in the house. Water pipes are to be insulated especially if they
are in the attic. In slab foundations there is a little chance for water
and outside gases to leak. Slabs are lower to the ground as a rule and
they have fewer steps to go up which can be an advantage for older seniors
or people who have difficulty in climbing stairs. There are several potential
drawbacks to slab foundations. Any cracks can cause long-term problems
and are more difficult to repair. Soil movement, tree roots can lead
to cracks in the slab. Slabs homes are also more prone to insect problems.
