Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A frigid crawl space in Oceanport, NJ needed to be insulated. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed SilverGlo crawl space insulation and CleanSpace vapor barrier to trap in heat.

This Oakhurst home had a humid, wet crawl space that was losing the homeowner money on heating and cooling every year. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed CleanSpace, a plastic encapsulation system which keeps water vapor out and dry air in. CleanSpace is durable, it is guarenteed never to tear and will permanently keep moisture away from the crawl space. Now the homeowner's crawl space is no longer an eyesore and they will save money on heating and cooling their house.

Quality 1st Basement Systems installed CleanSpace vapor barrier in this Monmouth County crawl space. By encapsulating the crawl space, water vapor and dirt will stay out. The liner also helps protect the wooden crawl space beams from rot and humidity.

Moisture issues beneath a home often go unnoticed until they begin to threaten the structure itself, which was the situation for a homeowner in Oakhurst, NJ. Water intrusion in the crawl space created an environment conducive to mold growth, wood deterioration, and ongoing moisture problems. Seeking a permanent solution, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for a professional evaluation.

After a thorough inspection, a System Design Specialist identified the sources of water entry and designed a customized waterproofing system to effectively address both groundwater management and moisture control.

This dynamic solution included the installation of our patented Drainage Matting and our StarPipe Drainage System to capture and direct water away from the foundation. To fully seal and protect the space, our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System was installed, creating a durable moisture barrier throughout the crawl space. Our TripleSafe Sump Pump provided reliable water removal under all conditions, while an IceGuard Discharge Line ensured year-round functionality during freezing temperatures.

Together, these systems now work seamlessly to keep the crawl space clean, dry, and protected, giving the homeowner long-term confidence in the safety and durability of their home.

A homeowner in Oakhusrt, New Jersey was experiencing water in their crawl space, as well as showing signs of mold. Exposed earth contributes a lot of water vapor into the crawl space air. The earth is damp and as damp soil dries beneath the house, the water vapor moves upward. Groundwater seeps and leaks get into many crawl spaces as well. The negative effects of a wet crawl space are, mold, smelly damp carpets, increased heating and cooling bills since damp air takes more energy to cool and heat, and even mold upstairs. 

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our foreman, Jonathan Neira, installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System in the crawl space. This vapor barrier is thick like a pool liner and will stop vapor from flowing up from the soil. Any rocks or debris in the craw space are removed and uneven surfaces are leveled. The foreman carefully fitted and installed the liner, and held it in place with drilled-in fasteners and spikes. Check out this transformation!
