Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

In this dirt crawl space, the moisture had gotten worse to the point that the upstairs floor began to creak when walking. Our team was able to assess the area and encapsulate it with our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. We were able to clean out the insulation to install new joists alongside the old existing joist that prevents the floor from sagging and creaking. To encapsulate, we installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier throughout the area, which will block evaporation from ground moisture coming in. Finishing up the space, we wrapped the bottom of each cement pier, which prevents any future leakage or seepage. 

This Glen Burnie, MD, homeowner was facing increasing moisture levels in their crawl space, which were causing the support beams to weaken and leading to damp, unhealthy conditions throughout their home. The rising moisture not only created a musty smell but also threatened the structural integrity of the house as the beams began to sag, affecting the floors above. Concerned about the long-term damage, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st for a solution.

Next the team installed our patented SmartJack Reinforcement System to stabilize the sagging beams and lift the floors back to their original position, while our mold-resistant CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System was applied to seal the ground and prevent future moisture from entering the space.

With these comprehensive solutions in place, the crawl space was transformed into a dry, stable, and healthy environment, restoring both the foundation and overall peace of mind for the homeowner!

In this uninsulated crawl space, vapor was coming up through the ground soil into the home, causing the master bedroom to be extremely cold during the winter months. To encapsulate the space, we installed our CleanSpace Vapor barrier that will capture and prevent any moisture that seeps in from the dirt floor. By sealing off the air movement from the ground, it will also close off the temperature from the living space above, making the floors and rooms above feel warmer in the winter months.

After researching long-term solutions, they reached out to Quality 1st for professional help in restoring the crawl space to a dry and healthy condition.
