Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Quality 1st Basement Systems was able to fully encapsulate the crawl space of a homeowner in Toms River. Senior foreman, Juan Garcia, and his crew, installed SilverGlo Panels to insulate the crawl space from the cold and CleanSpace vapor barrier to keep out moisture.

When this homeowner from Toms River, NJ noticed persistent condensation and a musty smell drifting up from their crawl space, they knew something had to change. The old, sagging insulation was soaked and ineffective, and moisture was beginning to impact their home’s comfort and air quality. After a thorough inspection, they opted for a full crawl space upgrade using Drainage Matting, CleanSpace, and SilverGlo insulation.

First, Drainage Matting was laid down to allow any water beneath the liner to move freely to the proper drainage points. CleanSpace encapsulation sealed the entire area with a tough, bright vapor barrier, instantly reducing moisture and improving the environment. To tackle insulation and energy efficiency,

SilverGlo was installed along the walls, providing a clean, radiant barrier with superior insulating power.

The transformation was dramatic. The homeowner's crawl space is now dry, insulated, and protected, and the rest of their home feels fresher and more stable. What was once a source of worry is now a clean, efficient part of their home’s foundation.

A Toms River, NJ homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basements because of the moisture and water in their crawl space. Upon inspection, our System Design Specialist found a lot of moisture and mildew creating a nasty and unhealthy environment inside the crawl space. 

Foreman Juan Garcia and his crew fully encapsulated the crawl space with CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to seal it off from water and moisture that could cause harm to the crawl space and the foundation of the home. To prevent cold air from entering the home, the crew installed a Heat Barrier, SilverGlo. This was installed on the floors to keep the heat inside the crawl space to prevent frozen pipes and cold floors.

The homeowner was amazed by the transformation of their crawl space and now recommends Quality 1st Basements to anyone they know experiencing a wet crawl space. 

System Design Specialist, Phil Matthews, met with a homeowner in Toms River, NJ about concerns they had in their basement when noticing water marks and efflorescence on the walls. From time to time they noticed the basement walls would get damp and a little water seepage would form  on the floor. They wanted to protect their basement and prevent water and mold growth in their basement. 

Phil designed a solution that would best the basements needs and the homeowners goal. To prevent moisture and water seepage on the walls, Phil recommended our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. Not only does it create a clean and bright appearance in the basement but directs all water seepage straight down to the WaterGuard French Drain System which then flows into the Sump Pump. 

Your crawl space should always be sealed off from the harsh outside environment. By preventing cold and humid drafts, pests and water from getting inside, you are creating a healthy area that will promote better quality air for your family. 

This Toms River, NJ homeowner knew it was time to encapsulate their crawl space when a musty odor formed and traveled into the first level of their home. With the vents open allowing water and moisture inside, it created a nasty space and poor air quality. Our team sealed the space by closing off all crawl space vents, encapsulating the crawl space with our Vapor Barrier liner known as CleanSpace. This liner will prevent mold growth and water seepage creating a dry and healthy crawl space.
