Combatting Crawl Space Moisture In Oakhurst, NJ

Wednesday, January 28th, 2026 by Rebecca Brossa

Challenge

Hidden moisture problems can quietly compromise a home long before visible damage appears, and that was the concern facing a homeowner in Oakhurst, NJ. Persistent water intrusion in the crawl space created conditions that could lead to wood rot, mold growth, and potential structural deterioration if left unaddressed. Recognizing the seriousness of the issue, the homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems to perform a thorough inspection and provide a reliable, long-term solution.

Solution

Following a detailed evaluation, our System Design Specialist designed a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the specific conditions of the crawl space. The solution included the installation of our patented Drainage Matting to allow water to flow freely beneath the space, along with our StarPipe Drainage System to effectively collect and direct groundwater. To further protect the area, our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System was installed to fully encapsulate the crawl space, sealing out moisture and improving overall air quality. A TripleSafe Sump Pump System was also added to ensure reliable water removal even during heavy rainfall or power outages. To complete the system, an IceGuard Discharge Line was installed to prevent freezing and maintain year-round performance. Together, these advanced waterproofing components now work seamlessly to control moisture, redirect water safely away from the foundation, and protect the structural integrity of the home.

Our StarPipe Drainage System was installed to effectively capture groundwater entering the crawl space and redirect it away from the foundation.

To ensure reliable and continuous water removal, our TripleSafe Sump Pump system was installed as the crawl space's primary defense against water intrusion.
