How these estimates are modeled

Basement

$1050-$1855

Use this when the home has a basement or lowest-level slab that supports a standard sub-slab suction system.

Slab-on-Grade

$985-$1725

Slab homes can price differently when finished space, routing, or core drilling complicates the system path.

Crawl Space

$1580-$2850

Crawl-space jobs can move higher when vapor-barrier sealing, access, and sub-membrane suction add labor.
