About rat slab installation
A rat slab is a concrete barrier poured over the crawlspace dirt floor to stop burrowing rats from tunneling under the home. Mesh and vent screens stop many entry paths, but they do not stop diggers.
Norway rats are especially good at burrowing along foundations and under porches. When activity is coming from below, a slab addresses that path in a lasting way.
Our process starts with a free inspection, then cleanup and prep when needed, grading for drainage, and a solid pour. Rat slabs pair with sealed vents and access doors so the rest of the crawlspace is protected too.

Our rat slab installation process
- 01
Crawlspace assessment
We confirm whether burrowing is the issue and whether a slab, sealing, or both are the right next step.
- 02
Cleanup and prep
Debris and contamination are addressed so the pour goes over a clean, prepared floor.
- 03
Grading and drainage
Dirt is graded for drainage when the site needs it, reducing moisture problems under the home.
- 04
Concrete pour
A solid slab is poured to create a barrier rats cannot dig through.
- 05
Vent and access review
We also review vents and access doors so openings in the walls are not left as the next easy path.

"We had been hearing scratching in the attic for months. They found four separate entry points on the roofline and sealed everything the same week. No more noises at night."
"Very thorough inspection. They walked me around the outside of the house and showed me exactly where mice were getting in through the garage. Sealed it and the problem stopped."
"After three years of trying to trap our way out of a rat problem, we finally got exclusion done. Should have called them first. Honest, punctual, and clean work."
