Damp Crawl Space Repair in Montgomery, NJ
Challenge
This homeowner in Montgomery, New Jersey noticed their crawl space was damp and developing musty smells. This can happen when a crawl space is exposed to the earth's elements. Soil and dirt can hold moisture which eventually turns into water vapor that can rise into the air. A damp crawl space can have many negative effects such as rotting wood, pests, smelly carpets, and even mold growth!
Solution
The homeowner did not want this issue to go without a solution, so they searched online and found Quality 1st Basement Systems. They gave us a call and our customer care representative booked them an appointment with our System Design Specialist. Our specialist provided a thorough inspection of the home and noticed the water seepage. They suggested that the homeowner encapsulate the crawl space to separate it from the earth's elements. Our foreman arrived at the home a few days later and began installing our Drainage Matting. This matting is being installed underneath the encapsulation system and will catch any water and drain it away. Next, our foreman installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System which is a thick and durable liner that is mold-proof and waterproof. This system will completely block out moisture and humidity, and keep the crawl space dry and healthy! When the job was complete, the homeowner was satisfied with the outcome. They had a solution to their issues, and they even have extra storage space that they've been needing!
