Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Filthy Crawl Spaces Encapsulated in Fairview, NJ

This Fairview, NJ homeowner had two crawl spaces that he wanted cleaned up and encapsulated. The crawl spaces were dirty, full of dust and debris, and the fiberglass insulation was falling off of the ceiling. Living above a dirty crawl space is never a good feeling, the dirt can affect air quality and pests can make their homes in the crawl space debris. Afraid of mold growth, the homeowner called Quality 1st Basement Systems. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a crawl space encapsulation system in each crawl space. Crawl space encapsulation systems prevent dirt, debris, pests, moisture, and vapor from coming into the crawl space. First, the installation crew removed the debris from the crawl space and laid down drainage matting on the crawl space floor. On top of the drainage matting, the team installed crawl space insulation to keep the crawl space warm and save energy. Then, CleanSpace vapor barrier was installed onto the floor and walls to keep water and cold drafts out of the crawl space. With the new crawl space insulation, the floors above the crawl space are much warmer and the homeowner will save some extra money on his heating bills. Now, the air quality above the crawl space is better since the dust and dirt is gone below. The homeowner and his family feel much healthier now that they don't live above dirty crawl spaces!
