Damp Crawl Space Solution in Madison, NJ

Monday, May 16th, 2022 by Casie Novak

Challenge

This homeowner in Madison, New Jersey noticed a musty smell coming from their crawl space. This can happen in a dirt crawl space when it's exposed to the elements of the earth. Dirt and soil hold a lot of moisture and this moisture can turn into water vapor that rises into the air. If this goes without repair, this can cause many issues for a home such as rotting wood, smelly carpets, increased energy bills, and even mold growth!

Solution

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems after finding us on the internet. Our System Design Specialist JC suggested they seal the space from the earth's elements. Our foreman Mario installed our SmartSump Pump System and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System. This is first done by removing dirt and debris and leveling uneven surfaces. After this, they install CleanSpace, which is a mold-proof and waterproof durable liner. SmartSump will protect the crawl space from water during heavy rainfall. When the homeowner saw the results, their peace of mind was restored!
