The problem

Ms. Lauzé had problems with water infiltration in her basement that had entered through the joint between the footing and the foundation walls. This had created mold and completely damaged her floor.

The solution

Install a WaterGuard interior foundation drain all along the foundation walls. The WaterGuard sits directly on the footing and collects water from the joint and walls to direct it to the existing sump pump system. Once installed, it is covered with concrete, ready for the installation of the floor and the bottom of the drywall, services that Basement Systems can also offer Everlast and ThermalDry.

Water in a crawl space is not a good thing, since it makes the air humid, the air of the whole house is affected by this moisture, and building materials will deteriorate more quickly.

After contacting us, we sent one of our specialists to this crawl space in Marieville  to make an assessment for the waterproofing and encapsulation of this crawl space.

We installed our CleanSpace Liner which is a super-durable, 20mil plastic sheet material designed to permanently prevent moisture, outside air and pests from getting into your crawl space.

Problem: This client who lives in Berthierville had odor problems emanating from her crawl space.In addition; it was wet so she wanted to change the situation.

Solution: Our certified specialist installed our CleanSpace membrane throughout the crawl spac. This membrane serves as a vapor barrier, to reduce humidity as much as possible. Below this, there is a drainage membrane in order to evacuate the water towards the sump pump, so that it does not remain in the crawl space.

This client now has no more odor problems and has a dry and clean crawl space.

As the winter is coming, and after the dramatic events of last August, we got contacted by a homeowner in Berthierville, as they were concerned about their sump pump. It was not continuously working, which made it noisy and less efficient. Our specialist explain that the pump will end up being broken-down, thus leading to serious waterproofing problem inside the basement. The solution was to install a new sump pump system like our revolutionary TripleSafe system, with its two efficient pumps and a third backup battery pump. With the presence of TripleSafe, our client will not have any concerns as water is smoothly finding its way out of his basement.

Before repairing this Saint-Roch-de-Richelieu home's crawl space, its dampness was more than just a menace; it was a problem waiting to warp its way into the very structure it stood on. Notice in the before photo how unwelcoming it appears. Now, after introducing CleanSpace into the equation, the transformation is unmistakable—as you can see in the after photo. This cutting-edge barrier now shields the area from moisture, ensuring a drier, healthier environment below. Our approach not only tackled the immediate concern but also safeguarded the home's future, aligning perfectly with our mission to deliver an exceptional customer experience and enduring solutions.
