Challenge

Years of ongoing water intrusion had left a Surf City, NJ homeowner concerned about the long-term health and stability of their home. Moisture in the crawl space can lead to serious issues such as wood rot, mold growth, and foundation deterioration, all of which can compromise the structural integrity of a property. Determined to take proactive measures, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a reliable, permanent solution.

Solution

Once on site, our team conducted a thorough evaluation of the crawl space to identify the primary sources of moisture and assess the overall condition of the area. Based on our findings, we developed a tailored waterproofing strategy designed to tackle the problem at its root. The solution included installing our patented StarPipe Drainage System to direct water away efficiently, Drainage Matting to enhance water flow beneath the vapor barrier, and SilverGlo Insulation Panels to help regulate temperature and improve energy efficiency. To complete the system, we encapsulated the space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, creating a durable, sealed environment that blocks out moisture and humidity. With all components working together, the crawl space was fully transformed into a dry, clean, and protected area. The homeowner can now enjoy total peace of mind knowing their investment is safe from water-related damage for years to come!

We installed our StarPipe Drainage System to direct water out of the crawl space efficiently and prevent future flooding, while our SilverGlo Insulation Panels were added to improve energy efficiency and protect against moisture and temperature fluctuations.

The crew also added our Drainage Matting to create a clear path for water to flow beneath the vapor barrier, helping prevent puddling and enhancing the effectiveness of the entire crawl space waterproofing system.

Our crew installed CleanSpace to seal the crawl space from moisture, humidity, and outside air, ultimately creating a clean, dry environment that protects against mold, rot, and structural damage.
