This Ridgefield Park, NJ homeowner wanted to insulate their crawl space and so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for the job. The Q1 team insulated the crawl space with SilverGlo which is a heat barrier, keeping the warm air in and the cold drafts out. The team applied the SilverGlo to the rim joist as well because most of the cold air will find entry in from this part of the crawl space. TerraBlock was installed above the SilverGlo for extra insulation to prevent the cold air from coming up from the ground. Lastly, CleanSpace is applied over the TerraBlock, to seal the crawl space off from water vapor, moisture, and water, keeping the crawl space dry and providing the homeowner with a new area for storage.
The WaterGuard Drainage System is installed just underneath the perimeter edge of the basement floor. Unlike old-fashioned drain tile systems installed on the outside of the home, with the WaterGuard System, there is no gap on the basement floor to let humidity into the space or to collect debris. There is no opportunity for mud clog, because the system sits on top of the footing, away from the "mud zone" underneath your floor. Water is collected without the risk of clogs that would halt your system. Check out the difference with this before and after WaterGuard installation!
WaterGuard, WaterGuard port, and SuperSump were installed at this residence in Westwood, NJ. In addition, the installation of IceGuard and EverLast Wall Restoration was also completed. Look at the difference, a dry, clean and new basement!
Homeowner in Westwood contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems in regards to his wet basement. A System Design Specialist was able to diagnose that part of the problem was the lack of a quality sump pump. We installed a TripleSafe sump pump which is composed of three different pumps meaning that it will always keep this Westwood basement dry!
This Westwood homeowner was concerned about the high humidity in their finished basement. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a Sanidry basement dehumidifer. The Sanidry dehumidifer performs ten times better than the average household dehumidifer and uses the same amount of energy. It is durable, has digital settings, and will keep basements dry and the relative humidity down. Now this homeowner will not have to worry about mold growth.
