Damp Crawl Space Solution in Wharton, NJ

This homeowner in Wharton, New Jersey noticed their crawl space was attracting moisture and musty smells. The reason moisture gets into the crawl space is because of the soil surrounding the foundation. This soil becomes saturated during periods of heavy rainfall and creates hydrostatic pressure, which pushes water and moisture through the walls. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Dane Cuccinello, provided an inspection and suggested they encapsulate the space. Our foreman, Mario Barron, installed the Drainage Matting to rest directly on the floor. This prevents water from damaging the crawl space floor. Then, Mario installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to lay over the drainage matting. This system is constructed of plastic layers designed to specifically protect the crawl space. CleanSpace is waterproof and resistant to mold, and it is secured in place with drilled fasteners and spikes.
