Before & After Photos

Subsurface conditions beneath a residence in Metuchen, NJ began revealing signs of excessive moisture, including recurring water seepage and damp crawl space walls. These issues raised concerns about potential structural deterioration and declining indoor air quality, prompting the homeowner to seek a professional assessment from Quality 1st. Addressing moisture at its source is critical to preventing long-term damage, and early intervention allowed for a more effective and lasting solution.

Following a detailed inspection, the team identified the precise point of moisture intrusion and developed a customized waterproofing plan tailored to the home’s needs. The solution included installing our patented SilverGlo Insulation Panels to provide moisture-resistant insulation and improve energy efficiency, along with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System to fully encapsulate the crawl space and regulate humidity levels.

Together, these systems restored the crawl space to a dry, stable, and healthier condition, offering long-term protection and improved performance for the home!

This crawl space located in the Livingston, NJ area had a musty odor and high moisture. They contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems, who sent System Design Specialist, Thomas Nehme,  to provide a permanent solution to their crawl space concerns. Quality 1st Basement Systems was able to completely encapsulate the crawl space to prevent water, moisture and humidity from causing any future harm to the crawl space and its foundation structure. With the help of the SmartSump Pump System, SmartPipe Drainage Pipe, CleanSpace Drainage Matting and the Sedona Dehumidifier, this crawl space is now completely encapsulated and protected! 

Homeowner living in the beautiful area of Livingston, NJ discovered water in their crawl space, coming up through the floor and seeping through the walls. Upon this discovery, they also noticed a lot of moisture from the amount of water they had received. Luckily, they had recently received the Direct Advantage Magazine in the mail which had a Quality 1st Basement Systems ad along with a crawl space coupon inside. Quality 1st Basement Systems got the call and schedule a free estimate appointment. 

The System Design Specialist, did a full inspection and suggested a SuperSump Pump System along with a Sedona Dehumidifier. Both systems work together to create a dry and healthy environment in the crawl space. The SuperSump pump has a built-in alarm system that will alert the homeowner right away if it detects any water. The Sedona, although is small to fit inside a crawl space,  has the capabilities to blow effectively in large spaces.

The homeowner was relieved to know that they no longer have to worry about water or moisture in their crawl space thanks to Quality 1st Basement Systems.  

This Short Hills basement had a water seepage problem and some signs of past mold growth. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed CleanSpace basement liner. CleanSpace will keep the basement safe with lower humidity. By creating a barrier that keeps water vapor out of the basement, CleanSpace will keep mold from growing. Now this basement is healthy and dry.

Homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems about replacing the screen to the opening of the crawl space with a sealed door to prevent cold air and humidity from getting inside the crawl space. When the appointment was set, we sent out our Crawl Space Encapsulation booklet to the homeowner to help generate any other questions or concerns the new homeowner would have. By the time of the appointment, the homeowner wanted to get as much information as possible about encapsulation.

System Design Specialist, Ken Peare explained that the encapsulation of a crawl space is something that every homeowner should do because of the benefits. Encapsulation is when we stop moisture from passing through the walls and floor of the crawl space by installing a CleanSpace liner. This durable, bright white liner is mold and moisture resistant and waterproof to seal the crawl space off from unwanted cold drafts, humidity, dirt and pests that try to get inside. 

Quality 1st Basement Systems was able to transform this crawl space making it healthier for the new homeowners living inside.
