After years of dealing with a damp, musty crawl space that made their home feel humid and uncomfortable, this homeowner from Maplewood, NJ decided to take action and have the area professionally waterproofed. The solution included a CleanSpace vapor barrier, SilverGlo insulation, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, a powerful combination for keeping moisture under control.
The CleanSpace liner now seals the crawl space from the earth, preventing water vapor and musty odors from rising into the home. Behind it, SilverGlo insulation panels help regulate temperature and improve energy efficiency by reflecting heat back into the space. Finally, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier maintains ideal humidity levels, protecting the home from mold, rot, and allergens.
With their crawl space now clean, dry, and energy-efficient, the homeowner enjoys a healthier home environment and lower utility costs year-round.
This West Orange crawl space was very cold, especially during the harsh winter that New Jersey has been experiencing. This homeowner contacted Quality 1st Basement Systems since his pipes had already frozen three times this year! Quality 1st Basement Systems insulated and encapsulated the crawl space to keep the cold air out and help stop the pipes from freezing so frequently. The homeowner can feel the difference in the temperature in his home and has yet to see his pipes freeze again. He is even looking forward to the next winter!
BrightWall Basement Wall Panels were installed in this previously wet West Orange, NJ basement. BrightWall Panels are completely inorganic which are the ONLY materials that should be used in damp spaces like a basement. Since these basement panels have no organic material, they will never grow mold. Quality 1st Basement Systems also instaleld WaterGuard to waterproof the basement which works in conjunction with the new SuperSump sump pump system. This basement is now dry and usable!
A homeowner purchased a new house in West Orange, NJ and needed waterproof basement windows to replace the old rusty ones. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed Sun House window wells, which are made out of vinyl and will never rot or rust. They allow in plenty of natural light and keep water out!
Having a sump pump in your basement is step one in protecting your home but if this sump pump isn't maintained, it could be at high risk to fail. Quality 1st Basements replaced this old, failing sump pump and replaced it with our TripleSafe Sump pump system to protect this home from floods. Our TripleSafe is the ultimate protection for the basement because of it's three built-in pumps capable of handling any flow type of water.
