Homeowner Michael noticed a lot of humidity in his crawl space. Quality 1st Basements was able to help Michael with his crawl space concerns by concealing the crawl space vents with CleanSpace vent covers to prevent the outside air and moisture from getting in.
Don't neglect your crawl space! This homeowner in Summit, New Jersey called Quality 1st Basement Systems to inspect their damp crawl space. Our System Design Specialist, Mike Dellechiaie, went to the home and saw that the crawl space was humid, damp, and smelly. Mike suggested installing our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to completely seal the crawl space from the earth's elements. CleanSpace is a durable liner that will block out moisture and humidity.
Our Q1 Team did a full encapsulation in this damp crawl space! Jonathan and his crew installed SilverGlo on the walls. SilverGlo is a heat barrier that helps keep the heat contained. Next our Vapor Barrier Liner, CleanSpace, is installed over the Silverglo, on the walls and floor. CleanSpace will protect the crawl space against water seepage and mold, keeping the area clean and healthy.
As the weather gets warmer, you will face rising humidity levels in your crawl space which causes mold growth and wood rot. This creates an unhealthy living space for your family and also compromises your crawl space insulation and floor joints. By encapsulating this crawl space, we were able to control the humidity levels and greatly improve the foundation, air quality, and your home's energy efficiency. Now this homeowner can also use his crawl space for storage.
Recently in Absecon, NJ, we had the privilege of assisting a homeowner who was facing a collection of concerns regarding their home's sustainability and safety. The call came to us after the homeowner noticed some shifting in their home’s foundation, comprised primarily of cinder blocks, as well as urgent needs for waterproofing and outside insulation. We proposed a tailored solution using CleanSpace, SilverGlo, and our SmartJack system. The CleanSpace liner was to be installed in the crawl space to provide a solid water vapor barrier, preventing future moisture or water damage. SilverGlo insulation panels were placed to enhance energy efficiency. To the pressing issue of the home’s shifting foundation, we deployed our SmartJack system, providing solid support to stabilize and potentially lift the foundation to its original position.
