Quality 1st Basement Systems received a call from this homeowner in Hackensack, New Jersey regarding their crawl space attracting moisture. We sent our System Design Specialist, Dane Cuccinello to inspect the crawl space, and he suggested they seal it from the earth's elements. A few days later, our foreman arrived and began installing our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System. CleanSpace is a durable liner that is mold-proof and water-proof, and it will keep the crawl space dry and healthy all year round! Our foreman also installed our SmartSump Pump System to efficiently pump out any water that enters the crawl space. Since the installation, the homeowner has not experienced any issues in their crawl space!
This nasty dirt crawl space was encapsulated with SilverGlo Heat Barrier and Clean Space Vapor Barrier to keep the crawl space dry and warm. A SaniDry Sedona which is the most efficient, high performance dehumidifier and filtration system was installed to eliminate damp and musty odors by drying and filtering the air throughout the crawl space area.
A homeowner was experiencing a cold and damp crawl space in their Hoboken, NJ home and contacted Quality 1st Basements for a solution. Our System Design Specialist, did a full inspection and noticed a small water leak that caused the space to become cold and damp. He recommended encapsulating the crawl space to prevent future water leaks and overall creates a cleaner and healthy space. Our crew installed a SmartSump pump and a Sedona Dehumidifier to not only keep the crawl space dry but to prevent musty odors and moisture from forming. TerraBlock was installed on the floor as extra insulation to prevent cold floors on the first level of the home. Lastly, a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier was installed to seal the area for a cleaner space.
A resident in Hoboken, New Jersey noticed their floors were sagging. Over time, this area had high moisture and humidity that effected the wooden beams inside the crawlspace. The floor joist began to sag causing the first floor to become uneven.
The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Laszlo Lenkey, helped them find a solution to this issue. He suggested they use steel support systems to stabilize and level the home. Our foreman, Mario Barron, installed the SmartJack Steel Support System in the crawl space. SmartJacks do not replace the current columns, but they offer additional support to the entire crawl space beam and floor joist.
Recently in Hoboken, NJ, a homeowner began noticing increasingly damp conditions around their crawl space, resulting in ongoing concerns about potential rot and mold-growth. The homeowner also started to worry that leaving this issue unaddressed could have a negative impact on the overall air quality of the home, prompting them to reach out to Quality 1st for a professional waterproofing solution.
Once our team arrived at the home and conducted an extensive evaluation on the space, they determined which waterproofing approach would be the most effective. Next our team installed our specially patented SilverGlo Insulation Panels, these panels are designed to block heat loss and reduce humidity, while the reflective surface helps direct moisture away. We also installed our mold-resistant CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, its durable, waterproof design creates an airtight seal that keeps moisture out, preventing wood rot and reducing the risk of further structural decay.
From now on this crawl space will remain dry and healthy, allowing this homeowner to enjoy some much needed peace of mind!
