Crawl Space Repair in Haworth, NJ
Challenge
This Haworth, NJ homeowner was purchasing a ranch home and became concerned after an inspection revealed potential structural issues in the crawl space. The space had very limited clearance, exposed areas due to damaged screening, and signs of moisture. A crack visible in the first-floor bathroom raised red flags about foundation support, prompting the homeowner to hire a structural engineer for a professional assessment. The crawl space’s condition made it vulnerable to moisture intrusion, temperature fluctuations, and long-term structural movement.
Solution
Our team designed a comprehensive crawl space solution that addressed both moisture control and structural stability. We sealed the crawl space with CleanSpace vapor barrier to block ground moisture and outside air, then installed SilverGlo insulation to improve thermal performance and help keep floors warmer above. SmartJacks were installed to reinforce and stabilize the foundation, providing reliable support where it was needed most. Finally, we added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to actively manage humidity levels and keep the crawl space dry year-round.
The crawl space is now clean, dry, insulated, and structurally supported. Moisture concerns have been eliminated, indoor comfort has improved, and the foundation has been reinforced to meet the homeowner’s expectations following the engineer’s review. This proactive approach helped protect the home’s value and provided long-term peace of mind moving forward.
