Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Far Hills Crawl Space Encapsulated & Energy Efficient

A family in Far Hills called Quality 1st Basement Systems about their foul smelling crawl space. Was there any way to get rid of the odor? Could the awful smell be a hazard to the family’s health? Quality 1s Crawl Space Expert, Rick Ludlow, went out to investigate. Once he evaluated the damp crawl space, Rick explained to the homeowner that water seeping into the crawl space could create a breeding ground for mold and bacteria. Mold spores can travel up through the home and possibly affect the health of the family. Rick suggested encapsulating the crawl space with TerraBlock, ¾ inches of foam insulation for the floor, and SilverGlo insulation panels for the walls of the crawl space. Drainage Matting would allow any moisture entering the area to be directed to the sump pump. An UltraSump sump pump would ensure the system keeps working even if the power goes out. A CleanSpace Vapor Barrier would then be installed to finish the encapsulation and keep the crawl space clean and dry. CleanSpace Vent Covers would go over the existing vents to keep out moisture and vermin. The Quality 1st Encapsulation crew arrived on time and got right to work. Foreman Wilver Cardoza explained what would be done and the homeowner was impressed with the efficient and polite manner of the whole crew.  Now this Far Hills homeowner tells everyone that for a healthier crawl space and home call Quality 1st Basement Systems.
