Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Jersey City, NJ noticed that there was something off with his floors.  He couldn't figure out what was causing his floors to sag. He decided to contact Quality 1st Basement Systems and schedule an appointment for our System Design Specialist to come out and inspect his home.

Our System Design Specialist arrive to the home, on time, and did a full inspection on the house. During the inspection, the specialist noticed that the crawl space beams in the crawl space were sagging which would result in the uneven floors above. He recommended SmartJacks be installed to provide additional support to the beams. This would prevent future movement and protect the floor above. The homeowner wanted peace of mind that the crawl space structure and floor would be stabilized and so he agreed that the system would be the best solution for his concerns. 

Our crew arrived to the home early, and they began the repair. To help support the beam from sagging, our crew installed multiple Smart Jacks along the beams. Once all the Smart Jacks were installed, the beams were completely repaired, and sagging seized to continue. Since then, the homeowner did not have any problems in his home, thus making his completely satisfied. 

When a concerned homeowner in Ocean Gate, NJ, got in touch with us, they urgently needed an estimate for structural issues in their crawl space. We installed the CleanSpace encapsulation system, a durable 20-mil liner designed to fully protect the area from moisture. Unlike the flimsy barriers used by some other providers, CleanSpace offers superior protection against mold and mildew due to its reinforced design and antimicrobial finish. Its resistance to mildew and degradation promises long-lasting peace of mind. To combat the instability and floor sagging, our team put in place the SmartJack system. Our experts positioned galvanized steel columns at specific load-bearing points, connecting them securely to strengthen and stabilize the compromised beams. 

This Belford homeowner's crawl space got wet with every rain storm. It had a musty smell and was raising the humidity of the home. The homeowners called Quality 1st Basement Systems to install a dehumidifier and a vapor barrier system. CleanSpace vapor barrier is made out of thick, inorganic plastic that will not gather mold or not. It keeps out water vapor, making sure that crawl spaces stay dry. Paired with the homeowner's sump pump, this system will work in any weather. A SaniDry dehumidifier was installed to filter dust mite droppings out of the air and keep the crawl space humidity down. This will make the rest of the home's air quality better, and get rid of the damp smell. Now this crawl space is safe and dry!

Our team went in and completely transformed this damp and smell crawl space into a dry and healthy area underneath this Belford, NJ customer's home. We installed our moisture vapor barrier system known as CleanSpace along the walls and floor. Our System Design Specialist, Mike D also recommended our SmartSump pump system to prevent water from seeping through the foundation walls. Lastly we installed a Sedona Dehumidifier to prevent musty odors from forming.
