Unstable foundation and humidity problems in a crawl space in Verdun, QC
Challenge
Foundation settlement is never a normal thing, no matter what others might say. There are several signs such as wall cracks and changes in the operation of doors and windows in the house that may indicate that your foundation is sinking.
This was the case of our client in Verdun, where he found himself constantly trying to patch, repair, and remedy these symptoms, unaware of a bigger underlying problem.
The good news is that these problems can be fixed permanently. And as soon as our client found our company, he contacted us and went to inspect his house for free.
Solution
After our visit, we suggested the best solutions for sagging and bouncy floors available in the market, the SmartJack support pillars. This engineered structural system won’t settle like masonry piers can; nor will it rot or shift like a wooden post.
Part of keeping your crawl space dry involves also installing a CleanSpace water vapor.
The CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system is a very duty 7-Layer liner material, like a pool liner. It gets installed across the floor and up the walls in order to stop all water vapor from the walls or soil.
Our client’s house in Verdun is finally stabilized thanks to our system. His place is no longer in danger and the problem is solved once and for all!
