Crawl Space Waterproofing
in Pennsylvania and New Jersey
 The biggest problem with an unconditioned crawl space, especially if it has a dirt floor or is vented, is that as warm air rises in your home, it brings up the air that was previously in your crawl space. This includes moisture, odors, mold spores, and anything else that may be airborne down there.
For a crawl space in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, BQ Basement Systems has a healthy, energy-efficient solution. The CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system isolates a home from the earth, reducing relative humidity and making a home more energy efficient and healthier. This is the right solution for a dirt, vented or unconditioned crawl space. We offer Free crawl space inspections and estimates in the counties of Bucks, Lancaster, Montgomery, Berk, Lehigh, and Philadelphia, PA; and in the northwest New Jersey counties of Mercer and Hunterdon, NJ.
The next issue is increased energy costs. As this air rises in your home, replacement air enters from the lowest part, your crawl space. This replacement air is made up with unconditioned outside air that enters through your crawl space vents and other leaks, and air that is actually sucked from the crawl space floor, either dirt or concrete, which is typically filled with lots of moisture. In the summer, when warm, humid air is being drawn into your home via the crawl space, it costs more in air conditioning costs to cool this damp air. In the winter, cold air is entering your home and the floors are colder and heating costs are increased.
A Free Crawl Space Estimate & Inspection
In greater Philadelphia Pennsylvania and Hunterdon and Mercer counties in New Jersey, including the cities of Philadelphia, Warminster, Pottstown, Levittown, Bensalem, Cheltenham, and Norristown, PA; and Ewing, Princeton, and Trenton, NJ and the surrounding areas. BQ Basement Systems is the local Basement Systems dealer who exclusively offers the patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. Call or contact us online for a Free Crawl Space Estimate and Inspection.
Air movement is like a chimney
 Air movement in a home is upward, sometimes called the "stack effect," because it's similar to how a chimney works. Consequently, with this upward air movement, whatever is in the air in your crawl space eventually flows up into the living areas of the house. Up to 40 percent of the air on the first floor that we breath originates down in the crawl space.
A vented crawl space is a never-ending source of moisture. And even if the vents are closed, and the dirt floor's surface appears dry, digging down just a few inches can reveal moist, damp earth. So sealing the vents and covering the floor and walls of a crawl space are important.
What's So Bad About Crawl Space Moisture?
Because moisture leads to mold growth, musty odors, and structural damage, not to mention that critters and bugs thrive in moist environments, plus energy costs are higher. Moisture ruins houses by providing this hospitable environment for mold, fungi, and insects that destroy wood framing. Crawl space moisture, and the mold and mildew that grow in this environment, affect not only the flooring system directly above, but also the entire house.
Properly sealing the crawlspace and removing the moisture from the ground and air is part of the solution that helps provide a mold-free, radon-free, and insect-free environment, which leads to a more energy-efficient and healthier home.
Benefits of Crawl Space EncapsulationTo greatly improve the healthiness and energy efficiency of your home, a crawl space should be completely sealed and isolated from the ground and the humid air outside. The 20-mil, 7-layer CleanSpace vapor barrier is an effective solution. CleanSpace has been tested and perfected  th roughout the U.S., Canada, the U.K., and Ireland, and is now available in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Other components of the CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system include the patented Basement Systems' crawl space sump pump systems, the SaniDry crawl space dehumidifier and air filtration unit, crawl space vent covers, a crawl space door, and other crawl space products designed specifically for the CleanSpace system.
Crawlspace Flood or Leak?
Many crawlspaces leak and many flood. If your crawlspace has standing water throughout the year, it may need a crawlspace waterproofing system. BQ Basement Systems has several patented sump pump systems available in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and each one features the patented WaterWatch sump pump alarm that sounds like a smoke detector in the event of a sump pump or power problem -- before the crawlspace floods.
Although often neglected until damage or mold begin to appear, a crawlspace is one of the most important spaces in your home. It can be a spawning ground for crawlspace mold, odors, insects, and even radon gas. The moisture from the crawlspace will lead to structural damage and higher energy costs. On the other hand, a clean, encapsulated crawlspace can be an extra source of storage space, while making your home more energy efficient, healthy, and safe for your family.
To learn more about the CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System in Pennsylvania or northwestern New Jersey or other innovative crawl space solutions, contact BQ Basement Systems for a free crawl space repair estimate and inspection. You'll be thrilled at how quickly your crawlspace can be fixed with little disruption to your daily routine. CleanSpace comes with a 25-year warranty against rips, tears and from having groundwater on top of the liner.
