Encapsulation of a Crawl Space in Courcelles, Quebec
A homeowner in Courcelles, Quebec, reported excess humidity levels in their crawl space. Upon inspection, our specialist identified clear indicators of excessive moisture, including visible efflorescence on the foundation walls which is a sign of water migration through the walls.
To remediate the issue, we put in place the CleanSpace encapsulation system. This solution includes two primary components: A drainage matting that facilitates water flow toward an appropriate discharge system, and a high-performance vapor barrier engineered to isolate the crawl space from moisture. Together, these elements effectively regulate humidity levels, stop water infiltration, and prevent moisture evaporation from the soil beneath the structure.
The intervention has resulted in a controlled and safe crawl space environment, mitigating risks of structural degradation, mold growth, and poor indoor air quality. The space is now dry, sealed, and contributes to the long-term durability of the residence.
Crawl Space Encapsulation in Tring-Jonction, Quebec
A client owning a house in Tring-Jonction, Quebec, was concerned about their crawl space. The humidity was becoming problematic, and the client wanted to address the issue before it worsened. During our inspection, our specialist noticed signs of humidity including the presence of efflorescence, which clearly indicated excess moisture. To resolve the issue, we installed the CleanSpace encapsulation system, which includes a drainage membrane and a high-performance vapor barrier. These two components work together to control humidity, prevent water infiltration, and stop moisture from evaporating from the soil. The crawl space is now fully protected, dry, and secure, ensuring the structural integrity of the home is preserved.
Complete transformation of a foundation wall in Sainte-Henedine, QC
In Sainte-Henedine, the owner noticed a gradual deformation of his foundation wall accompanied by horizontal cracks visible in the basement. Constant soil pressure, exacerbated by moisture and freeze-thaw cycles, was causing the wall to lose its anchorage and lean inward. This situation posed a serious risk to the structural stability of the house, increased the potential for water infiltration, and raised concerns that the movement would worsen over time.
After our intervention, the wall was completely stabilized thanks to the installation of the CarbonArmor® system, which immediately blocked any further movement, and the PowerBrace™ system, whose adjustable steel beams provide permanent structural reinforcement and gradual straightening. The wall is now securely anchored, the structure is safe, and the foundation is protected against lateral soil pressure. The basement now offers a safer and more sustainable environment, with restored stability and peace of mind for the owner.
A finally dry basement in Saint-Ephrem-De-Beauce with WaterGuard!
Discover the transformation of this basement after installing our WaterGuard French drain waterproofing system. Previously, our client's basement in Saint-Ephrem-De-Beauce was damp, exposed to water infiltration, mold, and unpleasant odors.
After our intervention, it is now dry and healthy. The WaterGuard system, installed just above the foundation footing to avoid the muddy area, effectively captures water from the walls and floor. Combined with the CleanSpace membrane installed on the walls, it significantly reduces ambient humidity, preventing mold growth and improving air quality throughout the house.
Permanent basement waterproofing in Saint-Hilaire-de-Dorset, Quebec
Our client's basement in Saint-Hilaire-de-Dorset had problems with excessive moisture and water infiltration, which compromised air quality and the use of the space. The signs were obvious: water marks on the floor, persistent odors, and deterioration of materials. With our WaterGuard interior drainage system professionally installed along the foundation, infiltrated water is intercepted and directed to the sump pump before it can cause damage to the structure. The drainage membrane, laid on the slab, allows for optimal water flow to the system, preventing any accumulation of standing water. This effective combination provides lasting protection against moisture, preserves the integrity of the basement, and creates a dry space ready for storage, finishing, or expansion of living space.
