Eliminating Wet Crawl Space Conditions In Wall Township, NJ
Challenge
Concerned about increasing moisture around the crawl space, a Wall Township, NJ homeowner reached out to Quality 1st in search of a lasting solution. They had noticed the humidity was rising beneath their home, leading to fears about potential structural damage, poor air quality, and long-term health effects. Understanding that water intrusion in crawl spaces can quickly escalate into mold growth and wood rot, our team scheduled a comprehensive inspection to assess the situation and provide expert recommendations.
Solution
After evaluating the space, our crew developed a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the home’s specific needs. To effectively manage groundwater and prevent future buildup, we installed our patented Drainage Matting along the crawl space floor and connected it to our StarPipe Drainage System. For insulation and thermal efficiency, SilverGlo Insulation Panels were secured to the crawl space walls. To handle active water intrusion, we placed a SmartSump System at the lowest point, ensuring reliable water removal with added protection from its built-in alarm system. To seal out humidity and protect the entire area, our team encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, a heavy-duty liner that keeps moisture from entering through the ground and walls. To prevent exterior water issues, we also installed RainDrop GutterGuards to keep gutters clear and flowing, along with an IceGuard Discharge Line to ensure the sump pump discharges water safely even if the line freezes in winter. The result was a total crawl space transformation, dry, clean, energy-efficient, and built to protect the home for years to come!
