Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Kinnelon, New Jersey noticed their crawl space was developing a musty smell and attracting moisture. This can happen when a crawl space is left exposed to the earth's elements. Dirt and soil can hold moisture which will eventually rise into the crawl space air. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, JC Gibriano provided a thorough inspection and suggested they encapsulate the space. Our foreman began installing our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System. CleanSpace is a thick and durable liner that will block out moisture and humidity. Now, the homeowner has a dry and healthy space for extra storage! 

After dealing with musty odors and rising humidity on the first floor, this homeowner from Whippany, NJ finally discovered the source of the problem; their crawl space. The exposed floor and damp air were causing moisture to seep upward into the rest of the home. Determined to protect their investment, they chose a CleanSpace encapsulation system.

After heavy rain began revealing problems hidden beneath their home, it became clear that moisture was more than just a temporary inconvenience. A homeowner in Whippany, NJ noticed persistently elevated moisture levels in their crawl space during periods of rainfall, a condition caused by insufficient drainage support around the foundation. Left unaddressed, the excess moisture raised concerns about wood rot, declining indoor air quality, and the potential for mold growth. Understanding the long-term risks to both the structure and the living environment, the homeowner reached out to the professionals at Quality 1st for a dependable and permanent solution.

After completing a detailed inspection, our team pinpointed several vulnerable areas that were allowing moisture to penetrate the crawl space. With these findings, we developed a customized waterproofing strategy designed specifically for the home’s needs. The solution included installing SilverGlo Insulation Panels to resist moisture and improve energy efficiency, our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to fully protect the crawl space from ground moisture, and our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to maintain healthy humidity levels.

Together, these systems work seamlessly to prevent future water intrusion, improve air quality, and provide the homeowner with long-lasting protection and peace of mind!
