Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Cedar Grove, New Jersey noticed their crawl space was developing a musty smell. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Joe Mancini, provided a thorough inspection. Joe suggested they encapsulate the space to seal it from the earth's elements. Our foreman arrived and began installing our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System on the walls and floors. CleanSpace is a thick and durable liner that will prevent water vapor and humidity from passing through. It's mold-resistant and water-resistant, and will keep the crawl space dry and healthy! 

This Cedar Grove, NJ, homeowner was dealing with increased moisture levels in their crawl space, exacerbated by heavy rainfall that led to damp, musty conditions and the potential for mold growth. The excessive moisture was compromising the structural integrity of their home and creating an unhealthy environment, so the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a long-term solution.

Our team installed our specially patented Drainage Matting to facilitate proper water flow and prevent water accumulation, allowing for efficient moisture control. To further combat the dampness and enhance energy efficiency, we added our SilverGlo Insulation Panels, which provide superior thermal performance and prevent heat loss while also resisting moisture. Finally, we installed our mold-resistant CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, which created a seamless, waterproof barrier on the floors and walls, blocking moisture from entering the crawl space.

With these solutions in place, the homeowner’s crawl space was fully restored to a dry, stable, and healthy environment, free from excess moisture and mold risks!

In Cedar Grove, NJ, a homeowner faced the challenges of uneven floors and persistent dampness in their crawl space. To tackle the moisture problem, we employed our CleanSpace encapsulation system. Designed to keep the crawl space clean and dry, CleanSpace provided an effective moisture barrier, significantly outperforming typical liners on the market. This created a comprehensive seal, protecting the homeowner’s property from humidity, mold growth, and potential structural damage. Meanwhile, to address the uneven flooring, our production team installed the SmartJack System. These steel support piers stabilized and lifted the crawl space beams and floor joists, reducing the bounce and restoring the home's structural foundation. After carefully setting these supports, adjustments helped elevate the floors toward their original position.
