Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Lanoka Harbor, New Jersey was experiencing water getting into their basement. There can be many causes to this and one of them is moisture coming from the soil and traveling up into the air in the crawl space. Another reason could be the poorly compacted soil around the home's foundation. Over time this soil becomes saturated and creates hydrostatic pressure, pushing water through the walls.

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Joseph Mancini, provided an inspection and suggested they install a vapor barrier system. Our foreman, Juan Garcia, installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System which is durable and thick like a pool liner. This system seals the crawl space from the earth and is mold-proof and water-proof. The foreman installs it by removing uneven surfaces and debris, carefully fits and installs the liner, and permanently holds it in place with drilled-in fasteners. Now, the homeowner has a dry and clean space, which is perfect for storage.

This Lanoka Harbor home sat within a major flood zone which changes the flood insurance requirements. SmartVents were required to be installed in this crawl space to prevent the home from flooding in the event of a major storm. Not only did the SmartVent save this homeowner on insurance, but it gave him peace of mind if a large storm were to hit the area again.

A Staten Island, New York resident noticed water seeping into their crawl space. This happens because the soil around the foundation becomes saturated during heavy rainfall. The saturated soil creates hydrostatic pressure, which pushes water to seep through the walls and floors of a crawl space. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement and our Systems and System Design Specialist, Dylan McDonald, suggested they encapsulate the crawl space to prevent moisture from getting in. Our foreman installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to seal the crawl space off from water and moisture. With the entire crawl space now sealed off from the harsh outside elements, the homeowner no longer had to worry every time it rained.
