Crawl Space Encapsulation In Atlantic Highlands, NJ
Challenge
Ongoing water intrusion had begun taking a toll on a home in Atlantic Highlands, NJ, prompting the homeowner to take action before the problem worsened. With signs of excess moisture, musty odors, and concerns about long-term structural impact, they turned to Quality 1st for a dependable, permanent solution.
Solution
Our team quickly scheduled an on-site inspection to assess the condition of the crawl space and determine the best course of action. The inspection revealed a damp, poorly ventilated environment that was vulnerable to mold growth and wood rot, issues that could compromise the health and safety of the home. To address these concerns, our specialists crafted a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the unique layout and challenges of the crawl space. The first step involved installing our patented Drainage Matting across the crawl space floor. This matting is designed with built-in channels that direct water toward the drainage system, creating a clear path for moisture to exit the space. We then encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, a thick, mold-resistant liner that seals out ground moisture and protects the home from harmful humidity and microbial growth. This barrier was securely fastened to the walls and floor, ensuring a complete, airtight seal. To further improve air quality and moisture control, we installed our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. This energy-efficient system continuously monitors and regulates humidity levels, filtering the air and keeping the crawl space dry year-round. Once all components were in place, the transformation was remarkable, the once damp and unprotected area became a clean, dry, and healthy space. With their new waterproofing system installed, the homeowner now enjoys complete peace of mind knowing their home is safe, energy-efficient, and protected from future moisture problems!
