Transform Your Crawl Space with Durable Access Wells
The First Custom-Engineered Drainage System for Crawl Spaces!
At APS Foundation, we understand the unique challenges homeowners face with crawl space moisture issues. Our SmartPipe™ Crawl Space Drainage System is specifically designed to address these concerns, ensuring your home’s structural integrity and your peace of mind.
- Custom Design for Superior Performance: Unlike generic drainage solutions, the SmartPipe™ system features holes on the top and front to effectively capture water from both the soil and the surface of your crawl space. Additionally, a special wall flange collects water from the crawl space walls and the footing/wall joint, providing comprehensive moisture management.
- Quick and Efficient Installation: We pride ourselves on our efficient installation process. Typically installed in a day or less, the SmartPipe™ system allows us to minimize disruption to your home. While one technician installs the drainage system, other team members can simultaneously work on encapsulating your crawl space, offering a seamless and swift solution.
- Protection Against Clogs and Failures: The SmartPipe™ system includes a special filter fabric material that covers all openings facing the dirt surface of your crawl space. This innovative design ensures that water can enter while preventing mud and other debris from causing clogs, thus maintaining reliable and efficient drainage.

Say Goodbye to Deteriorated Crawl Space Wells
Is your home plagued by old, deteriorating crawl space access wells? Many homeowners in Birmingham, Huntsville, and Mobile face issues with concrete, wood, or metal access wells that not only fill with leaves, plants, and debris but also rot, rust, and flood the crawl space during heavy rains or snow. These unsightly pits can seriously hurt your home’s curb appeal and create entry points for moisture, cold drafts, and pests.
At APS Foundation, we offer a superior solution to these common problems. Our Turtl™ and EverLast™ access wells are designed to replace those old, problematic wells with durable, attractive options that provide long-lasting protection and peace of mind.
- Reinforced Plastic: Made from durable plastic, The Turtl™ is built to withstand daily wear and tear without rotting, rusting, or needing paint.
- Lockable Design: For added security, The Turtl™ can be locked, keeping unwanted guests out of your crawl space.
- Color Options: Available in green, brown, and beige, The Turtl™ can complement any home exterior.
EverLast™ Access Well Features
- Wide Access: Each unit is 48" wide, ensuring easy entry to your crawl space.
- Customizable Depths: Choose from 21", 36 3/8", and 51 3/4" depths to fit your specific needs.
- Durability: Crafted from heavy-gauge polyethylene, the EverLast™ Access Well is built to last, adding a bed of gravel at the bottom for effective drainage.
Both of these solutions not only protect your crawl space from flooding and debris but also enhance the overall appearance of your home. With minimal maintenance requirements, these wells provide a cost-effective, long-term solution to traditional, deteriorating access wells.
