Infiltration of water through a crack in Saint-Hyacinthe
Our customers were having problems with water infiltration in their basement and needed the interference of our company.
Our complete basement waterproofing system blocks water vapor, traps leaks, and redirects and pumps that water away from your home. We installed such a system at this Saint-Hyacinthe client.
Floor Stabilizing in Saint-Barnabé-Sud, QC
In Saint-Barnabé-Sud, QC, a homeowner faced a daunting crawl space dilemma— a mere 3 feet high with cracks menacing the walls above, threatening the very stability of their floor without any signs of water infiltration. Notice in the before photo the evident structural woes. Our solution was clear and effective: SmartJack installation. The after photo showcases a revitalized crawl space, securing the home's foundation and bringing peace of mind. A sturdy foundation for years to come, brought to you by our hands.
Addition of beams and support pillars in a crawl space in Massueville, Qc
Before our work started, our experts discovered several problems in this crawl space:
- A cold and wet crawl space
- Split wooden support beams
- Rusty support pillars
- Water infiltration
The danger was that the weight of the house split the wooden beams and the humidity in the crawl space caused the supporting pillars to rust. These factors threatened the support of the entire house.
In order to solve the foundation problem, our experts added 3 additional wooden beams to the existing ones in order to properly support and distribute the weight of the house. They dug in places in the crawl space to install a total of 10 SmartJack support pillars. They are made from galvanized steel and are used to stabilize and level beams and floor joists in the crawl space. Then, to remedy the water infiltration problem, the customer already had a working sump pump so our experts installed a stamped polyethylene drainage membrane that allows water to flow to the sump pump. . To finalize it, they laid our CleanSpace coating on top of the drainage membrane as an insulating layer. This coating has several functions, including preventing water from the floor from evaporating and creating humidity in the crawl space.
Our client will no longer have to worry about his crawl space or his foundation. His crawl space is now clean and dry and its foundation leveled and stabilized.
Water and potential mold problems in a crawl space in Louiseville, Qc
Our client had a damp crawl space with potential mold problems. To solve his problem for good he contacted our company.
To do this, we installed a Drainage Matting with the CleanSpace to block the moisture that emerges from the earth, as well as a SuperSump to clear the water that accumulates, and an IceGuard to prevent backflows during the winter.
Thanks to these solutions, our client benefits from a crawl space protected against moisture damages.
Encapsulation of a crawl space in Louiseville, Qc
The encapsulation of your crawl space is a clever choice for the whole house. Once you can feel that the walls are cold, the air in the place is humid and you can see water leakage, you need to contact specialists such as our company that can help you solve these problems.
We have encapsulated this house in Louiseville, Qc.
Our team has started by installing the SmartSump system; this system is specifically designed for crawl spaces to help reduce moisture, remove water and prevent flooding.
Then the walls have been coated with the CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane, which blocks water vapor and redirects it to the drain.
Afterwards we added our SilverGlo panels that provide also a vapor barrier on your crawl space walls, holding back the moisture and humidity.
Finally, to keep the humidity level at 55% or lower, we have installed our SaniDry CX dehumidifier and air purifier that keeps the air dry and the environment healthy.
This space can now be conveniently and safely used. We are happy to have been able to carry out this project!
