A common indicator of water damage in a basement or crawl space is the appearance of a powdery deposit known as efflorescence on the walls. This occurs when water seeps through the porous foundation walls, evaporates, and leaves behind the salts and minerals it contained. A homeowner in Gibbsboro, NJ, observed this buildup on the walls of their crawl space and contacted Quality 1st for assistance in addressing the issue. Our team was able to identify the problem and provide a waterproofing installation to prevent any future leaks or damage. We encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to safeguard it against water intrusion, along with our Drainage Matting placed on the floor beneath the vapor barrier. Additionally, we installed a Sedona Dehumidifier in the crawl space to ensure optimal moisture control and air filtration. The homeowner can now have peace of mind knowing that signs of water damage are no longer a concern.

Homeowners in Gibbsboro, NJ, faced persistent issues with their vented and unsealed crawl space. Excessive moisture was consistently migrating upwards, causing musty odors and concerns about structural integrity. We proposed our trusted CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system as the optimal solution.

A homeowner in Delran, NJ expressed concern about noticeable sagging in their floors attributed to inadequate foundation support. The crawl space was trying to bear the weight of the home with DIY support posts made of wood, which were vulnerable to rotting and bowing. Acknowledging the structural weaknesses and potential for further damage, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for assistance.
The solution to the foundation issue involved the installation of our SmartJack System. SmartJacks, constructed from galvanized steel, are securely attached to the home's floor joists with a robust steel base. These adjustable support posts are tailored to meet the specific needs of the home and provide a permanent remedy for a weak foundation. With the SmartJacks installed, the home now benefits from a stable and strong foundation, restoring the previously sagging floors to a level position.

SilverGlo was installed on the crawl space walls to serve as a heat barrier and reflects heat back into the crawl space for ultimate energy savings. CleanSpace was installed on the crawl space walls and floors to hold back water vapor and humidity from entering the crawl space. CleanSpace is a durable, bright white liner that will not rip or tear making it perfect if the homeowners want to use their crawl space for storage.
