Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Musty Crawl Space Encapsulated in Green Village, NJ

A homeowner in Green Village, NJ was frustreated with her crawl space. The dirt crawl space smelled horrible, and the smells were drifting up into the rest of the home. The family was afraid to have guests over because the smell was so strong. They bought a fan and a dehumidifier for the crawl space, but they weren't working.  Quality 1st Basement Systems encapsulated the crawl space. First, they laid down drainage matting on the crawl space floor, keeping out water from coming up from the dirt. On top of the drainage matting, they laid down TerraBlock foam insulation. On the walls, they installed SilverGlo crawl space insulation. SilverGlo contains tiny pieces of graphite to reflect and trap heat. SilverGlo is easy to install, unlike messy fiberglass. It is made out of waterproof materials that will not get damaged. Finally, the crawl space was fitted wtih CleanSpace vapor barrier. CleanSpace protects the crawl space from wood rot, mold, mildew and pests. To prevent the nasty odors, Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a SaniDry dehumidifer. The SaniDry removes impurities and moisture from the air. Now the homeowner is saving money on their energy bills and the musty odor is gone! They recommend Quality 1st Basement Systems to all their family and friends.
