I sometimes really wish my house was pier and beam construction instead of slab; having a crawl space seems really handy when wanting to rework things. Everything is just right there!

A single story home does make some things simple, but it is still a pain with the insulation. On top of that, all the old plumbing goes through the slab making access difficult.

Rats live in crawl spaces, and they love to eat wires.

Rats seem to do fine in attics and walls as well. Pests gonna pest.
