Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Ugly, damp basement walls converted into a clean, bright walls with the installation of the CleanSpace Wall System.

A Hoboken, NJ resident contacted Quality 1st Basements to waterproof and encapsulate their crawl space. After seeing many before and after pictures of crawl spaces similar to their, they knew that encapsulation was the answer and that Quality 1st Basements is the crawl space professionals they needed for this solution. 

Our Senior Design Specialist, Ken Peare, did a full inspection of the crawl space area and noticed high humidity and moisture. The walls were damp and a musty odor filled the entire crawl space area. Ken suggested a full encapsulation system to not only keep the crawl space dry but healthy. Protecting this area under your home from water keeps mold from growing. This will improve the quality of air! 

Recently in Hoboken, NJ, a homeowner began noticing increasingly damp conditions around their crawl space, resulting in ongoing concerns about potential rot and mold-growth. The homeowner also started to worry that leaving this issue unaddressed could have a negative impact on the overall air quality of the home, prompting them to reach out to Quality 1st for a professional waterproofing solution.

Once our team arrived at the home and conducted an extensive evaluation on the space, they determined which waterproofing approach would be the most effective. Next our team installed our specially patented SilverGlo Insulation Panels, these panels are designed to block heat loss and reduce humidity, while the reflective surface helps direct moisture away. We also installed our mold-resistant CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, its durable, waterproof design creates an airtight seal that keeps moisture out, preventing wood rot and reducing the risk of further structural decay. 

From now on this crawl space will remain dry and healthy, allowing this homeowner to enjoy some much needed peace of mind!

Homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to provide a solution for preventing water and mositure from getting inside the crawl space. The Q1 team  sealed off the crawl space by encapsualting it with a durable, liner referred to as CleanSpace which provides a vapor barrier. SilverGlo was installed to the floors and walls of the crawl space as a heat barrier to keep it dry during the cold months. The homeowner was very pleased with the job done and hasn't gotten water since.  

This Ridgefield Park, NJ homeowner wanted to insulate their crawl space and so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for the job. The Q1 team insulated the crawl space with SilverGlo which is a heat barrier, keeping the warm air in and the cold drafts out. The team applied the SilverGlo to the rim joist as well because most of the cold air will find entry in from this part of the crawl space. TerraBlock was installed above the SilverGlo for extra insulation to prevent the cold air from coming up from the ground. Lastly, CleanSpace is applied over the TerraBlock, to seal the crawl space off from water vapor, moisture, and water, keeping the crawl space dry and providing the homeowner with a new area for storage.
