Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Beneath a Mendham, NJ residence, a persistently damp crawl space had become a growing concern for the homeowner as recurring water seepage began to compromise the area’s condition. Over time, excess moisture led to early signs of structural decay and visible mold growth, signaling the need for a dynamic and lasting solution. Seeking to protect the home’s integrity and indoor environment, the homeowner turned to Quality 1st for a professional evaluation and remediation plan.

After conducting a detailed inspection, our team developed a customized waterproofing strategy tailored to the crawl space’s specific challenges. The solution included the installation of our patented WaterGuard Drainage System and Drainage Matting to manage and redirect groundwater, along with SilverGlo Insulation Panels to enhance moisture resistance and energy efficiency. To ensure dependable protection, we added our TripleSafe Sump Pump System, CleanSpace Vent Covers, and our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, effectively sealing the crawl space from outside moisture.

With these integrated systems in place, the space is now fully protected against future water intrusion, preserving the home’s structure and providing long-term peace of mind!

Don't ignore your crawl space! Say goodbye to pests and mold growth by installing our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System. Quality 1st Basement Systems provided this solution for a homeowner in Mendham, New Jersey. Our System Design Specialist, Dane Cuccinello, inspected their crawl space and suggested they seal it from the earth's elements. When the job was complete, the homeowner was happy to see their crawl space was sealed, and they had extra space for storage! 

In Mendham, NJ, a concerned homeowner reached out to Quality 1st because they were experiencing musty odors in their crawl space during the summer months. They also expressed a desire for a cleaner area suitable for storage and were curious about the benefits of encapsulation. The space was damp, inviting unpleasant odors and potential mold growth. These conditions could affect the air quality throughout the home, so the Specialist proposed a solution that included our CleanSpace encapsulation system and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Our production team started by laying down the CleanSpace liner, a 20-mil thick vapor barrier that combats moisture effectively. Once in place, this sturdy liner ensured the area would remain damp-free and clean, providing a healthier foundation for the home. To top it off, we installed the SaniDry Sedona, which is unmatched for moisture control. It was set up to regulate humidity levels, making the crawl space dry and eliminating those unpleasant odors.

This homeowner in Wharton, New Jersey noticed their crawl space was attracting moisture and musty smells. The reason moisture gets into the crawl space is because of the soil surrounding the foundation. This soil becomes saturated during periods of heavy rainfall and creates hydrostatic pressure, which pushes water and moisture through the walls. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Dane Cuccinello, provided an inspection and suggested they encapsulate the space. Our foreman, Mario Barron, installed the Drainage Matting to rest directly on the floor. This prevents water from damaging the crawl space floor. Then, Mario installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to lay over the drainage matting. This system is constructed of plastic layers designed to specifically protect the crawl space. CleanSpace is waterproof and resistant to mold, and it is secured in place with drilled fasteners and spikes.

This homeowner from Bernardsville, NJ was in need of insulation for their crawl space. The temperature was very cold, which was affecting other areas of the house upstairs. They called Quality 1st Basements for a free estimate. Our System Design Specialist, Dane recommended SilverGlo to insulate.

SilverGlo was installed on the walls to warm up the crawl space by reflecting heat back in, enhancing energy efficiency. 

The homeowner now has peace of mind that their home is comfortable all year long.
