Basement

$1040-$1868

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

Slab-on-Grade

$986-$1760

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

Crawl Space

$1548-$2830

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