A damp, musty crawl space in Toms River, NJ was causing concerns for the homeowner. To fix the problem, we installed CleanSpace to seal the space from outside moisture and added a SaniDry Sedona to control humidity. The result is a clean, dry crawl space that helps protect the home from future damage.
Heavy rainfall began wreaking havoc on a Toms River, NJ homeowner’s crawl space, creating damp, deteriorating conditions that threatened both the structural integrity and indoor air quality of their home. Concerned about long-term damage and the risk of mold growth, the homeowner reached out to Quality 1st for a professional and lasting solution. After a thorough inspection, our team developed a targeted waterproofing plan tailored to the specific conditions of the crawl space.
To combat the water intrusion and improve drainage, we installed our patented StarPipe Drainage System to capture and redirect groundwater away from the home. The SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System was added to efficiently remove any water collected in the space, while our IceGuard Discharge Line was connected to ensure the system continues working during freezing conditions, preventing backups.
With these advanced solutions in place, the crawl space is now dry, stable, and protected, providing the homeowner with long-term peace of mind!
Toms River homeowner called Quality 1st with moisture issues in his home due to his crawl space. A dirt crawl space will inevitably cause water vapor issues since it is impossible to dry the earth. In addition to the dirt space, the concrete block walls are the least resistant to water or air, exacerbating the moisture problems. Quality 1st crew members installed CleanSpace, which is a plastic liner, to seal this Toms River home crawl space. SmartVents were also installed to seal off the crawl space door and insulate the crawl space. The final solution for this homeowner was the SaniDry Crawl Space dehumidifier which completely dried out the space and will continue to dry the air making this crawl space clean, dry, and no longer a concern for this homeowner and his family.
Toms River homeowner faced a musty smell coming from what seemed to be her crawl space. Even in a crawl space with concrete flooring, water vapor can penetrate the concrete and causes moisture, humidity, and eventually mold in the space. Quality 1st installed the CleanSpace crawl space vapor barrier to fully waterproof the crawl space. Not only will the CleanSpace seal this home off from the earth, but its antimicrobial additive will further decrease mold symptoms for this Toms River family!
