Forked River, NJ Crawlspace Transformation

While the crawlspace is often the area of the home with the least amount of foot traffic, it makes a huge difference in the home’s environment and quality of life. To name a few, the crawlspace is a big factor in a home’s indoor air quality, temperature regulation, energy costs, and overall comfort. As the Jersey Shore’s leading crawlspace specialists for over 20 years, we have helped thousands of our neighbors here along the shore to achieve a healthy and protected home environment through crawlspace services and encapsulation. It also means that we have seen the effects that take place when a crawlspace is neglected.

Our goal with these weekly crawlspace transformation posts is to show you the difference that a properly maintained crawlspace can make in a home. Remember, your crawlspace can look like this too! These services make a difference that you can both see and feel throughout the home. If you’re interested in updating your crawlspace, take a look at this stunning crawlspace transformation in Forked River:

• This Forked River homeowner reached out to us because they had recently had a contractor in their home that recommended they get new insulation installed. During the initial phone conversation with the homeowner, it was discovered that they were unaware of the current conditions of the crawlspace and that it likely hadn’t been touched at all since it last had an addition built in 1989. Lucky for them, our team is more than prepared for such a case. Following our 22-point comprehensive crawlspace evaluation, we determined that the following services were needed to make this crawlspace clean, dry, and protected:
  • A ground cleanout to remove debris, old floor insulation, and the existing vapor barrier.
  • A two-stage mold treatment to kill the mold growth found on wood surfaces and inhibit it from growing again.
  • Installed a 12-millimeter string reinforced vapor barrier to the floors.
  • Installed an Aprilaire 1852 dehumidifier.
  • Installed R30 Rockwool insulation.
  • Installed 2” rigid foam board insulation within the rim joist cavities.
  • Installed foam pipe insulation.
  • Performed a rodent treatment to prohibit future pest activity.
  • Installed a new PVC synthetic crawlspace door.
  • Sealed any and all air leaks.
