As a man who has done this for a living in the past. I can say that this video doesn’t even touch on how hard this job can be!! Hats off to everyone who does this work
Mike Rowe is a corporation shill. He pretends to be a working class advocate, but he's outspoken against unions and has never advocated for better pay in these "dirty job" industries. He's an advocate for dirty jobs, and thinks they should get garbage pay and garbage benefits.

Great episode! When the gentleman said most homeowners have never been in their crawl space, I would guess he's right. Personally, I see it as something like entering into Indiana Jones Temple of Doom territory. 😦 Gah!!!!!
I have serious issues with my foundation. Allegedly, the previous owner had something injected under the floor. There are holes drilled into the hallway floor. How can I tell if anything was injected under the floor to level the foundation? Thank you
They do have floor leveling compound that is used in certain applications, but it would be a concern if put over top of wood foundation that was possibly rotted or getting weak structurally
Really disappointed to see Mike promoting this as quality work. I hope they do another video with Mike showing everyone the service calls in a few years. Trenches not dug deep enough, system installed too high and tight against the block, system ran around the furnace instead of behind it, completely covered up the block bowed out instead of repairing the huge gaps, and more. When a company installs 4’ of “vapor barrier” they are hiding the real problems from the next homeowner. They didn’t install waterproofing, they installed drains with exposed grates.
Man get out of the way. Nobody getting kicks out of this except mike and his payday from the show. No one doing this work is stoked to be doing it. You can only glorify it so much man before you end up the one drawing the biggest payday by standing in the way and acting like you providing a service.
You are a person in a bad space, that has worn you down to the point of making a highly cynical comment. He may be getting paid, but consider this, did you know about groundworks? I didn’t. I hope that you’re happier than the time of this comment.

miss Dirty Jobs!
Shouldn't houses be built on a better foundation. Like compressed crusher dust/crushed stone.
Mike, stop helping...it's making me feel so friggin old watching you get winded.
