Before & After Photos

The owners of this Oradell, NJ home needed to waterproof their damp crawl space. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed CleanSpace vapor barrier. CleanSpace is made out of thick, durable plastic, and keeps the relative humidity of crawl spaces down, and water vapor out. Now this crawl space is dry and safe, looks brighter, and will not experience wood rot or mold growth.

A homeowner in Oradell, NJ, noticed their crawl space was damp and humid, so they contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems for a solution. Since this is not a space the homeowner visits often, our System Design Specialist, Joe, could tell these issues had been going on for some time. He recommended fully encapsulating the crawl space to keep it dry and healthy. That way, the homeowner had peace of mind that their crawlspace would be protected against water, moisture, humidity and unwanted drafts. The CleanSpace Moisture Vapor Barrier is a great solution because it helps seal off the crawl space from the outside environment, which can harm the crawl space, the home's structure and the air quality. 

Ongoing water intrusion in their crawl space not only created an unpleasant environment for this Pearl River, NY homeowner, but also raised concerns about potential mold growth and structural damage. To address these risks, the homeowner turned to Quality 1st for a professional and long-term waterproofing solution.

After a thorough assessment, our team pinpointed the exact source of the water seepage and developed a customized strategy to fully protect the crawl space. This approach included our patented Drainage Matting to manage groundwater, SilverGlo Insulation Panels to improve thermal efficiency and resist moisture, and our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to create a complete seal against rising damp. To ensure ongoing humidity control, we installed our high-powered SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, providing continuous protection against excess moisture.

Together, these systems transformed the crawl space into a dry, healthy, and fully protected environment, giving the homeowner lasting peace of mind!

Dirt crawl spaces allow water vapor to enter the crawl space and flow up through the rest of the home. Our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system completely seals the crawl space off from the earth providing a dry, healthy environment which can then be used for storage!

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.
