Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Dirt Crawl Space Waterproofing in Garwood, NJ
A homeowner in Garwood, New Jersey had water coming in through his dirt crawl space after every rainstorm. He called Quality 1st Basement Systems to assess the problem and find the best solution. The crawl space was damp, had a musty smell, and high humidity and the homeowner was worried about the issue getting worse. Quality 1st Basement Systems sales representative Collin Peare suggested a water vapor encapusulation system and a sump pump.
Foreman Jesus Alvarez-Sanchez installed CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. CleanSpace keeps water vapor out of crawl spaces and keeps the relative humidity down. This will not only keep the Garwood crawl space dry, it will save on energy bills by keeping out cold winter drafts. Humid crawl spaces are havens for mold growth, wood rot, and pests like mice and insects. Mold spores in the crawl space share the same air as the rest of the house, and can affect the family's health. However with CleanSpace no pests will get in, mold will never grow, and the heavy duty plastic will never rot. It is safe, healthy and energy efficient. The thick, durable material will not snag or get holes, guaranteed.
A SuperSump pump pump was installed in order to carry water out and away from the crawl space. The SuperSump sump pump is a reliable system with an airtight lid and built-in alarm. Paired with CleanSpace lining, the SuperSump will keep the crawl space dry during even the heaviest rain storms. Vent covers were fitted over the crawl space vents to keep out pests and cold drafts. Now this Garwood home is ready for all weather and the homeowner and his family can be confident that it will stay dry.
