It’s always necessary to encapsulate your crawl space. And when our client from Montpellier called us, she told us that she was experiencing high humidity levels, especially during winter times when the floors became colder than normal.

After our free inspection of the place, we knew that the problem was simply the presence of water vapor and high humidity caused by a lack of insulation and floor covering in the crawl space. And so we have recommended a full encapsulation system that will not change the crawl space only but the entire health of the house.

At the start, our production team installed SilverGlo insulation panels on the walls. These panels will reflect the heat into the crawl space. And so the house walls and floors will be less warm.

And then we have covered the soil with a vapor barrier called CleanSpace. This membrane is a 20mil plastic coating composed of several layers of plastic with different characteristics of flexibility and strength. It also has an antibacterial additive that blocks the growth of mold and fungi on the coating.

There are many cities like Saint-Zotique along lakes or streams. Although it is very pleasant during hot summers, it also means that the soils bordering these streams are often full of water. Thus, homes that rest on these floors may be infiltrated with water. This was the case of one of our clients in Saint-Zotique. The water that seeped into his crawl space harmed all this space and the air of the house. To solve this problem, we carried out a project of encapsulation and waterproofing to make this environment waterproof and impermeable. We are pleased to have been able to install our patented CleanSpace (vapor barrier), SmartSump (sump pump system), LawnScape (discharge line) and IceGuard (pipe freeze protection) products. solve this water problem once and for all.

Mrs. Lalonde from Fassett, Quebec, was experiencing multiple issues stemming from her dirt crawl space. She had 7 cracks, the crawl space floor was very humid, and the floor of her kitchen was crooked. She searched the internet for a solution and came across our website. After seeing that we offer a wide range of crawl space services, she decided to fill out our service request form. We then contacted Mrs. Lalonde and offered to send over a specialist for a free inspection & estimate. Our specialist Houssem went to Fassett and completed the thorough inspection of her crawl space. He concluded that the best option to solve the issues would be to encapsulate the crawl space with CleanSpace Vapor Barrier & Drainage Matting, as well as install a SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump, and 6 SmartJack Crawl Space Support Jacks. Combined, these products will solve the humidity issues, as well as strengthen the floor above the crawl space so it is no longer crooked. Our foreman went and expertly installed all products, ensuring all was well sealed to prevent any water infiltration. Our client can now enjoy her home without humidity issues or crooked floors thanks to our team at Systemes Sous-sol Quebec.

If your foundation is disposed to to condensation or general sogginess such as this basement in Grenville-Sur-La Rouge, we recommend our vapor barrier liner to be installed on your basement walls with our waterproofing system.

The durable liner will work along with our waterproofing system by pushing water along the foundation down into the interior drainage system ‘the Waterguard’ instead of seeping onto the floor.

Our client’s foundation problem in Chénéville Qc, began with a small crack above the crawl space. Over the past few years that small crack turned into an even bigger one. Mr. Billy knew that he needed to do something about this before the situation got worse, so once they found our company they called us for a free inspection.

Our team went quickly to evaluate the situation, and we concluded that the foundation was settling and recommended installing Helical Piers. With a plan set, our team came out to the home to start the project.

Helical Piers were installed inside the crawl space. Once the soil was removed from the areas where the piers were being installed, heavy-duty foundation brackets were positioned below the footing.
