Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A Forked River, NJ homeowner knew there was a problem with their home when they noticed the floors had begun to sag. They hadn't been down in their crawl space in some time and therefore called Quality 1st Basement Systems to do a full inspection and provide a solution.

Our Systems Design Specialist, Jack Huber, visited the homeowner and did a full inspection of the crawl space. He noticed the crawl space beams below were sagging and needed additional support to the beams. Jack suggested installing the 3-ft SmartJack System.

Our foreman, Jonathan, Niera, and his crew got to work and installed the SmartJack System. Each SmartJack is installed to the beam to provide additional support. Since the system is adjustable, it allows for the beams to gradually move back towards original position. 

Struggling with persistent water seepage in their crawl space, a homeowner in Wyckoff, NJ turned to Quality 1st Basement Systems for a professional and lasting solution. Exposure to moisture and various environmental factors had caused significant water intrusion, and the homeowner was concerned about potential mold growth, wood rot, and the long-term effects on their home's structural integrity. Our team conducted a detailed assessment of the crawl space, thoroughly evaluating the sources of water entry and the severity of the problem. From there, we developed a tailored waterproofing plan to address the situation effectively.

The solution involved a dynamic system designed to both prevent water intrusion and regulate moisture levels in the crawl space. We began by installing our patented WaterGuard Drainage System, strategically placed to direct water away from the foundation. To further protect the crawl space, we included our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump to remove excess water, along with an IceGuard Discharge Line to prevent freezing in the colder months. Additionally, we installed our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, which helps maintain optimal humidity levels and prevents mold growth.

With these advanced solutions in place, the homeowner now has a fully protected, dry crawl space, ensuring their home remains safe and free from future water damage!

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 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. 

A homeowner in Paterson, New Jersey was looking for a solution to fix their wet basement. Wet basements occur when the soil around the home becomes saturated and creates hydrostatic pressure, pushing water into the basement. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st basement Systems and System Design Specialist, JC Gibriano, who was able to inspect the home and suggested they encapsulate the basement. Our foreman, Juan Garcia installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System along the basement wall. This system will catch any water that seeps in from the walls and drain it to a sump pump. CleanSpace gives the basement a bright and fresh appearance while being water-proof and mold-proof.
