Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Check out this crazy before and after of our Crawl Space Encapsulation project we completed in North Plainfield, NJ. The homeowner contacted us when they realized how nasty their crawl space had become over time. Not being down there that often, the space had become cold, damp and unhealthy. Our crew installed a full Vapor Barrier System to seal the crawl space off from any water, cold or humid drafts, and pests. The system has created a cleaner and healthier space underneath the home. 

A homeowner in Plainfield, New Jersey was experiencing water coming in through their basement walls and floors. This happens because of the loose backfilled soil around the home's foundation. Over time, this loose soil becomes saturated during heavy rainfall and creates hydrostatic pressure, which pushes water and moisture through the walls. This can have many negative effects on the home's health such as dust mites, musty smells, mold growth, and increased heating and cooling bills.

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our foreman installed the WaterGuard Drain System which sits on top of the footing instead of alongside it. This keeps the wet dirt from getting into the drain because the drain does not sit in the mud. Next, the foreman installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System which is thick like a pool liner and is placed along the basement wall. This system is a vapor barrier, drains water behind it and dramatically brightens the basement.

A homeowner in North Plainfield, New Jersey noticed dampness and humidity issues in their crawl space. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to have their crawl space inspected. Our System Design Specialist, Joe Mancini, arrived at the home and provided a thorough inspection of the crawl space. Joe suggested they encapsulate the space to seal it from the earth's elements. Our foreman, Mario Barron, installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, which is a thick liner that is mold-resistant and waterproof. CleanSpace will prevent water vapor and moisture from passing through into the crawl space. Since the installation, the homeowner has had a dry and healthy crawl space with no issues!
