Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Lacey Township, New Jersey was experiencing a lot of humidity in the crawl space and contacted Quality 1st for a solution.

Our System Design Specialist inspected the crawl space and recommended the crawl space be encapsulated. CleanSpace vapor barrier system was installed on the crawl space floors and walls to keep water vapor and humidity out. With CleanSpace installed this ensures the crawl space stays warm and dry.  

A homeowner in Lanoka Harbor, New Jersey was experiencing water getting into their basement. There can be many causes to this and one of them is moisture coming from the soil and traveling up into the air in the crawl space. Another reason could be the poorly compacted soil around the home's foundation. Over time this soil becomes saturated and creates hydrostatic pressure, pushing water through the walls.

The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Joseph Mancini, provided an inspection and suggested they install a vapor barrier system. Our foreman, Juan Garcia, installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System which is durable and thick like a pool liner. This system seals the crawl space from the earth and is mold-proof and water-proof. The foreman installs it by removing uneven surfaces and debris, carefully fits and installs the liner, and permanently holds it in place with drilled-in fasteners. Now, the homeowner has a dry and clean space, which is perfect for storage.

A Lanoka Harbor, NJ homeowner was looking for a system that would stabilize and support the first level of their home. They searched the Internet for solutions and came across Quality 1st Basement Systems. System Design Specialist, Joe M. provided a thorough inspection of the crawl space and recommended the SmartJack Crawl Space Support as the best solution. Each SmartJack is made from galvanized steel, preventing from rusting and rotting, thus keeping the floors fully stabilized. 

When this homeowner from Lanoka Harbor, NJ began noticing musty odors drifting up from their floors, they knew their crawl space needed attention before moisture caused real damage. They chose a full waterproofing system featuring StarPipe, CleanSpace, IceGuard, and a durable vent cover, and the transformation was remarkable. StarPipe efficiently redirected groundwater away from the home, while the CleanSpace liner sealed the crawl space in a bright, protective barrier. IceGuard ensured the discharge line stayed functional even in freezing weather, and the vent cover blocked humid outside air from entering. Today, the homeowner's crawl space is dry, healthy, and well-protected year-round, giving them true peace of mind.

Homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basements when they noticed their chimney started leaning away from the home. We sent Senior Foundation Specialist, Ken Peare, out to design a solution using one of our foundation stabilizer systems. We installed two Helical Piers deep down underneath the foundation and chimney. Using the weight of the home we were able to stabilize the chimney.
