Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Recently in Wildwood, NJ, we encountered a homeowner frustrated by the high humidity levels in their crawl space, affecting not just the space itself but extending discomfort into the home. Confirming high moisture and humidity levels in the crawl space, our specialist recommended a tailored solution: the installation of CleanSpace, SilverGlo, and a SaniDry Sedona unit. CleanSpace, designed to encapsulate the crawl space, prevents moisture from seeping up from the earth, thus creating a dry and clean space. SilverGlo insulation panels were then installed on the walls, reflecting heat back into the crawl space, maintaining a warmer floor above during colder months and enhancing overall energy efficiency. 

A homeowner in Wildwood, NJ faced persistent problems stemmed from their crawl space. This area was prone to constant moisture buildup and humidity, resulting in mold growth and unpleasant odors seeping into the living spaces above. First, we installed the CleanSpace encapsulation system, laying an ultra-moisture-resistant barrier evincing future mold and mildew development by securely sealing the damp environment. Next, to combat the elevated humidity and odorous air, we fitted a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier and filtration system. The Sedona thrives even in the most moisture-heavy spaces, effectively maintaining low humidity and continuously circulating crisp, clean air-sans disturbing smells spewing upwards into the main living quarters. Finally, for augmenting the instability experienced due to subfloor support shortcomings, SmartJack galvanized steel supports accurately aligned weakened beams to regaining their functionality, ultimately sustaining overall integrity. 

In Wildwood, NJ, a concerned homeowner reached out to us at Quality 1st when they noticed concerning energy bills and a musty smell that had begun to permeate their home. Firstly, we deployed our CleanSpace system, known for its durable, mold-resistant properties. By encapsulating the area with our heavy-duty liner, we blocked moisture penetration and protected against mold. For insulation, SilverGlo was used along the crawl space walls. These panels added a radiant barrier and an R-11 insulation value, keeping the inside drier and temperature-controlled. Finally, to combat humidity, our team placed the SaniDry Sedona. This efficient dehumidifier keeps moisture levels below harmful limits, significantly reducing allergens like mold and preserving air quality indoors. 

Continuous water intrusion had left this Wildwood, NJ homeowner with growing concerns about their crawl space. The area had become damp, disorganized, and visibly worn, raising fears of long-term structural damage and the potential for mold growth. Conditions were steadily worsening, and the homeowner knew it was time for a professional solution to protect their home’s health and stability. After reaching out to Quality 1st, our team performed a detailed inspection to assess the extent of the damage and determine the most effective course of action.

Following the inspection, we designed a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the crawl space's specific needs. Our crew installed our patented Drainage Matting to direct groundwater efficiently toward the drainage system, preventing standing water beneath the surface. To complete the system, we encapsulated the area with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, an antimicrobial, mold-resistant liner that seals out moisture and transforms the space into a dry, protected environment.

With these durable solutions in place, the crawl space was fully restored, and the homeowner now enjoys complete peace of mind knowing their home is safe from future moisture-related issues!
