Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

SilverGlo is an energy-efficient option for your crawl space walls.

A homeowner in Montclair, NJ was experiencing a musty odor originating from their crawl space and permeating their home. Acknowledging this issue, the homeowner sought a waterproofing solution to prevent moisture build-up that was contributing to the unpleasant smell. Our Quality 1st team provided an effective solution and was eager to assist.

The crawl space was encapsulated with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, which lined both the floor and walls. Beneath the vapor barrier, our Drainage Matting was installed to promote water flow and prevent water from becoming trapped on the floor. CleanSpace is highly durable and is backed by a guarantee against mold or mildew growth. This system is designed to keep the crawl space dry and to mitigate further concerns regarding unpleasant odors or structural damage.

This homeowner was looking for help cleaning up and encapsulating her crawlspace. Our company came in and got the job done. Here we installed the Cleanspace Encapsulation System with our Cleanspace drainage matting, which is specially designed to collect and draw water away to the sump pump, our Cleanspace vapor barrier and SilverGlo insulated wall panels. We also built a retaining kneewall to stabilize and better support the area.

At this College Park home, the owner wanted to encapsulate the dirt crawl space that was bringing moisture into the home. We installed our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system to capture any vapor or moisture that would leak into the home. Once the space was cleared out of minor debris, fiberglass, and styrofoam from the walls, we installed our SandiDry Sedona dehumidifier that will eliminate humidity. 

What looked like a minor moisture issue quickly escalated into a serious crawl space problem for a homeowner in Boring, MD, raising alarms about mold growth, wood rot, and potential structural damage. Determined to protect their home, they reached out to Quality 1st for a permanent solution.

After a thorough inspection, our team developed a customized waterproofing strategy tailored to the specific needs of the space. We began by installing our patented Drainage Matting System to direct water toward our newly installed SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump, designed for efficient water removal in tight areas. To ensure the system performs even in freezing conditions, we added our IceGuard Discharge Line, which prevents backups if exterior pipes freeze.

To address insulation and humidity concerns, we installed SilverGlo Insulation Panels on the crawl space walls to create a thermal barrier that resists moisture and improves energy efficiency. We then sealed the space with our durable CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, which prevents vapor intrusion from the ground while creating a clean, dry environment. Vent Covers were added to block outside air, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was installed to regulate humidity and ensure long-term air quality.

With these advanced solutions working together, the homeowner now enjoys a fully protected crawl space and the peace of mind that comes with lasting moisture control, courtesy of Quality 1st!
