Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This Short Hills, NJ crawl space was dirty, wet and cold and the homeowners could feel that coldness come up through their floors. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to come and do a full inspection of their crawl space since they hadn't been down there in quite some time and the condition of it was unknown. The crawl space needed a complete waterproof system which consisted of WaterGuard and a SmartSump Pump specifically designed for the crawl space. Next, SilverGlo was installed on the floors and walls as a heat barrier keeping the crawl space warm and therefore the floors above warm as well. Lastly, a CleanSpace liner is installed over the SilveGlo as a vapor barrier. The CleanSpace will protect the crawl space against water, humidity, mold and moisture creating a clean dry environment in the crawl space. 

This Sayreville, NJ homeowner was experiencing water seepage in their crawlspace when it would storm. The moisture gave off a musty odor that could be smelled throughout the home. Quality 1st Basements helped the homeowner create a healthier environment in their home and created added storage space by installing CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System. The homeowner now has peace of mind knowing they aren't breathing in unhealthy air from their crawlspace and can use the crawlspace for storage purposes. 

A homeowner in Sayreville, New Jersey noticed water getting into their crawl space. This can happen because the poorly compacted soil around the home's foundation becomes saturated during heavy rainfall. This saturated soil creates hydrostatic pressure which pushes water through the walls and floors. This can have many negative effects such as mold growth, musty smells, increased energy bills, and pests. 
The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our foreman installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System which is thick like a pool liner and seals the crawl space from the earth. This system will prevent moisture and water from getting into the crawl space while giving it a bright and fresh appearance. 

Underlying conditions below a residence in Springfield, NJ revealed persistent crawl space moisture issues, including active water seepage and damp foundation walls that posed risks to both structural integrity and indoor air quality.
