Before & After Photos

The crawl space of this home in Lumberton, NJ was in need of a lot of repairs. The crawl space beams were not properly supporting the first floor, and the crawl space was humid in the summer and cold in the winter. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed SilverGlo crawl space insulation to keep the crawl space warm during the winter and CleanSpace crawl space vapor barrier to keep the moisture out during the summer. SmartJacks were also installed in the crawl space to properly support the rest of this home. This homeowner now has a healthier home thanks to the crawl space repair.

Our Service Technician, Andrew, met with this homeowner in Lumberton, NJ to help provide them with a solution to the dampness they noticed in their crawl space. Andrew noticed high levels of moisture which over time could cause mold. Mold would then effect the quality of air in the crawl space area and the first level of the home. He recommended our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to completely seal the crawl space from the earth's elements. 

Gradually increasing moisture levels in a Lumberton, NJ crawl space raised serious concerns about potential structural deterioration and mold growth, prompting them to seek a long-term solution from Quality 1st Basement Systems. What initially appeared to be a minor issue had begun to impact the overall health of the home, making it clear that a professional approach was needed to properly control moisture and protect the structure.

Following a detailed inspection, our System Design Specialist determined that inadequate drainage and the absence of a proper vapor barrier were the primary contributors to the problem. Based on these findings, we designed a customized crawl space waterproofing and stabilization plan that included the installation of our patented CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to block ground moisture, our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump to manage water intrusion, SmartJack Support System to reinforce and stabilize sagging structural components, and our high-performance SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to control humidity levels.

Together, these advanced systems eliminated ongoing moisture issues, improved structural stability, and provided the homeowner with long-lasting protection and complete peace of mind!

A homeowner in Cape May, NJ, reached out to Quality 1st Basement Systems after discovering dampness and musty odors in their crawl space, which can potentially result in structural damage, mold development, and reduced air quality. To resolve these concerns, we installed our Drainage Matting over the crawl space floor to effectively channel water away. This was followed by the installation of the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, which was securely affixed to the floor and walls to prevent moisture intrusion. Lastly, we implemented the SaniDry Dehumidifier to actively eliminate excess humidity. This comprehensive solution mitigates damage and mold growth, while enhancing indoor air quality and energy efficiency, ultimately creating a healthier and more comfortable environment for the homeowner.
