Before & After Photos

In Mendham, NJ, a concerned homeowner reached out to Quality 1st because they were experiencing musty odors in their crawl space during the summer months. They also expressed a desire for a cleaner area suitable for storage and were curious about the benefits of encapsulation. The space was damp, inviting unpleasant odors and potential mold growth. These conditions could affect the air quality throughout the home, so the Specialist proposed a solution that included our CleanSpace encapsulation system and the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Our production team started by laying down the CleanSpace liner, a 20-mil thick vapor barrier that combats moisture effectively. Once in place, this sturdy liner ensured the area would remain damp-free and clean, providing a healthier foundation for the home. To top it off, we installed the SaniDry Sedona, which is unmatched for moisture control. It was set up to regulate humidity levels, making the crawl space dry and eliminating those unpleasant odors.

This homeowner in Wharton, New Jersey noticed their crawl space was attracting moisture and musty smells. The reason moisture gets into the crawl space is because of the soil surrounding the foundation. This soil becomes saturated during periods of heavy rainfall and creates hydrostatic pressure, which pushes water and moisture through the walls. The homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist, Dane Cuccinello, provided an inspection and suggested they encapsulate the space. Our foreman, Mario Barron, installed the Drainage Matting to rest directly on the floor. This prevents water from damaging the crawl space floor. Then, Mario installed the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to lay over the drainage matting. This system is constructed of plastic layers designed to specifically protect the crawl space. CleanSpace is waterproof and resistant to mold, and it is secured in place with drilled fasteners and spikes.

This homeowner in Bernandsville, NJ wanted to improve the conditions of his crawlspace. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed CleanSpace crawl space Liner, Drainage Matting, a Condensate Pump, and a SaniDry crawl space dehumidifier to remove excess moisture from the crawlspace. This installation of this complete CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system has given the homeowner peace of mind knowing that his home is healthier because he now has a healthy crawl space.

A Bernardsville, NJ homeowner was interested in waterproofing their basement, so they searched the Internet for possible solutions and found Quality 1st Basement Systems. Our System Design Specialist, Greg Louis, inspected the basement and told the homeowner that our WaterGuard French Drain System and Triple Safe Sump Pump will get the job done. Our foreman, Wilver Cardoza, and his team began installing the WaterGuard above the footing of the foundation out of the mud zone to prevent clogging or damage. The WaterGuard is then attached to the Sump sump to direct the water out of the basement keeping the area dry and healthy.
