Photo Album: Restoring A Damp Crawl Space In Newark, DE

In Newark, DE, a homeowner began noticing signs of water seepage in their crawl space, raising concerns about potential structural decay and declining indoor air quality. Recognizing the risks associated with persistent moisture, such as mold growth and wood rot, they reached out to Quality 1st for a solution. After assessing the space, our team installed our patented SilverGlo Insulation Panels, which not only provide superior thermal protection but also act as a moisture barrier. This installation effectively sealed the crawl space, eliminating further water-related issues and restoring it to a dry, healthy, and more energy-efficient condition.

Damp Crawl Space

Damp crawl space conditions are often caused by excess moisture entering from the ground, poor ventilation, and inadequate drainage around the home's foundation. Water vapor rises from exposed soil, while rainwater or groundwater can seep through foundation walls if the grading or gutter system is faulty. Without proper sealing and insulation, this moisture gets trapped, leading to high humidity, mold growth, and potential structural damage.

Installing SilverGlo

Our crew installed SilverGlo Insulation Panels by first preparing and cleaning the crawl space walls to ensure proper adhesion. Each panel was then precisely cut and securely fastened to the foundation walls, creating a continuous layer of insulation with a built-in radiant barrier.

The Benefits Of SilverGlo

SilverGlo Insulation Panels offer multiple benefits by providing a durable, moisture-resistant barrier that insulates and protects crawl spaces. Their built-in radiant foil layer reflects heat back into the home, improving energy efficiency, while the rigid foam core resists water absorption and mold growth.
