Photo Album: Muddy Crawl Space Waterproofed in Eastchester, Bronx NY
A homeowner in Eastchester, Bronx NY had a muddy, wet crawl space that was giving off a moldy smell. The floor above her crawl space was sagging and uneven and her doors were sticking. She called several companies that promised to fix her crawl space problems, but she wasn't happy with what they offered. After calling Quality 1st Basement Systems and meeting with crawl space specialist Maurice Robinson she decided to go through the work. Her specialist answered all her questions and explained to her why her crawl space was wet and the benefits of waterproofing it.
The pictures taken by the specialist revealed that her crawl space was full of cobwebs, mud and unsightly debris. It was the perfect hideout for rodents and pests, and the homeowner was concerned about the high humidity levels and mold growth. Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a crawl space encapsulation system to keep out water vapor, moisture and pests. CleanSpace vapor barrier keeps the crawl space clean and dry. The installation team added SmartJack supports underneath the sagging crawl space beams in order to lift the sagging floor back into place. In order to keep water from pooling in the crawl space, Quality 1st Basement Systems installed a sump pump and crawl space drain. Now this crawl space is dry and the homeowner is amazed at the difference between her old, muddy crawl space and her new encapsulation system!
