Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Montclair, NJ was experiencing a musty odor originating from their crawl space and permeating their home. Acknowledging this issue, the homeowner sought a waterproofing solution to prevent moisture build-up that was contributing to the unpleasant smell. Our Quality 1st team provided an effective solution and was eager to assist.

The crawl space was encapsulated with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, which lined both the floor and walls. Beneath the vapor barrier, our Drainage Matting was installed to promote water flow and prevent water from becoming trapped on the floor. CleanSpace is highly durable and is backed by a guarantee against mold or mildew growth. This system is designed to keep the crawl space dry and to mitigate further concerns regarding unpleasant odors or structural damage.

At this raise farmhouse property the owner could feel the cold air coming up into the home. We encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier that will capture any moisture or vapor that seeps in. Then we placed on the foundation walls our SilverGlo insulated wall panel system that is high-efficiency graphite-impregnated insulation designed to keep the entire crawl space warm and will help save the homeowner money in the long run. 

In Reisterstown, MD, a homeowner grew increasingly concerned after noticing water seepage around their basement and crawl space. Fearing the long-term effects of moisture, such as structural deterioration, mold growth, and poor air quality, they reached out to our team at Quality 1st for a professional solution.

Our specialists conducted a detailed inspection and identified the key areas contributing to the water intrusion. Understanding the homeowner’s need for a lasting and efficient fix, we designed a customized waterproofing strategy tailored to the unique challenges of their property.

To address the water issues, we installed our patented WaterGuard Drainage System to capture water at the foundation level and direct it safely away, along with a TrenchDrain System to intercept surface water at key entry points. We then added CleanSpace Wall Panels and SilverGlo Insulation Panels to create a moisture-resistant, insulated barrier, enhancing energy efficiency and comfort. In the crawl space, our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System sealed off the earth's moisture, while the powerful SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was installed to maintain optimal humidity levels and prevent mold growth.

With this complete system in place, the basement and crawl space were fully transformed into a dry, healthy, and functional area, giving the homeowner confidence and peace of mind.

In Elkridge, MD, a homeowner grew concerned after noticing water seepage in their crawl space and sloping floors throughout the house, warning signs of moisture intrusion and potential structural issues. Worried about long-term damage and indoor air quality, they contacted Quality 1st for a professional evaluation.

Our team conducted an extensive inspection and identified elevated humidity levels, insufficient insulation, and weakened floor joists as key issues. To address these problems, we proposed a tailored solution focused on moisture control, energy efficiency, and structural stabilization.

Our crew began by installing SilverGlo Insulation Panels along the crawl space walls, which reflect heat back into the space while providing moisture-resistant insulation. Next, we encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to create a durable, sealed environment that blocks ground moisture and reduces humidity. To restore the home’s structural integrity, we installed our SmartJack System beneath the sagging beams, lifting and supporting the floor above. These combined systems not only eliminated the homeowner’s moisture concerns but also restored the crawl space to a clean, dry, and structurally sound condition, providing lasting peace of mind and protecting the home for years to come!

For this project the homeowner reached out regarding their finished basement and water coming in through the foundation walls. We were able to capture the water leakage with our CleanSpace Vapor barrier installation along with our WaterGuard sub-flooring drain system. The CleanSpace is a poly sheet material that covers the entire basement and works as a barrier for any water or vapor coming through into the home. This particular covering forces any type of seepage down to the sub-floor drain then flows into the sump pump, preventing any unwanted water in basement.
