Crawl Space encapsulation protects the crawl space, the structure within the space and the rest of the home since the air you breathe on the first floor comes from the space below. When you are experiencing dampness, a musty odor and signs of mold and moisture, seal your crawl space off. By protecting it from water and unwanted drafts you are promoting healthier air in a clean and dry space.
A homeowner in Sloatsburg, New York was experiencing high moisture and a musty odor in their crawl space. System Design Specialist, Dan, came out and provided a full inspection of the crawl space. He recommended encapsulation to seal the crawl space off. Quality 1st Basement Systems and our foreman, Jonathan Neira, installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System which seals the crawl space from the earth. This gives a bright and fresh appearance while preventing any water or moisture from seeping through the foundation.
This home in Sloatsburg, NJ sat above a crawl space that was dark, damp, and musty due to unwanted moisture sitting in the space. To fix this problem, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a waterproofing solution. Our team assessed the space and equipped it with a new system that would keep water out and regulate the temperature inside. CleanSpace Vapor Barrier was lined along the floor, up the walls, and around the support piers in the basement to seal out leaking water. Our SilverGlo Insulation is made up of a closed-cell material that won't absorb moisture and, therefore, won't rot or mold. The insulation panels were installed across the walls, with a radiant heat barrier on the interior side of the insulation panels to regulate the temperature. The home was also equipped with a Sedona Dehumidifier to keep the circulating air clean and free of moisture. Now, this home will have a lasting dry and controlled environment in the crawl space!
A Rutherford, NJ homeowner hired Quality 1st Basements to transform the cold and dirty crawl space into a warmer and clean space under their home. They wanted insulation to keep their floors on the first level warm and prevent their pipes located in this area from freezing. They also wanted to prevent animals and pests from getting inside.
Our System Design Specialist met with the homeowner, did a full inspection of the crawl space and designed a solution that would make the homeowner 100% satisfied. He first recommended our SilverGlo Heat Barrier that reflects heat back into the crawl space, creating a warmer environment. Next our Vapor Barrier Liner known as CleanSpace is then installed over SilverGlo. The CleanSpace is a moisture and water vapor barrier. Not only will it prevent water leaks and pests from getting through but also create a cleaner space by protecting the crawl space against mold.
