Challenge

A crawl space should be dry and healthy, not damp and smelly! This homeowner in Stafford Township, New Jersey noticed their crawl space was developing a musty smell and attracting moisture. This can happen when the crawl space is exposed to the earth's elements. The earth is damp, and this damp soil dries beneath the home and water vapor moves upward. If this issue goes without repair, this can cause many issues such as rotting wood, increased energy bills, musty smells, and even mold growth!

Solution

The homeowner did not want this issue to go without a repair, so they searched online for solutions. They came across Quality 1st Basement Systems and our customer care representative booked them an appointment with our System Design Specialist, Mike Fiorillo. Mike provided a thorough inspection and suggested they encapsulate the space to seal it from the earth's elements. A few days later, our foreman arrived at the home and began the process of installing our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System. This is done by removing dirt and debris from the crawl space, carefully fitting the CleanSpace liner into the crawl space, and keeping it in place with drilled-in pegs. This system is thick, durable, mold-proof, and water-proof. CleanSpace will block out moisture and humidity from the crawl space, and keep it dry and healthy all year round! When the job was finished, the homeowner was satisfied to see their crawl space was transformed!
