Insulate a crawl space in 3 steps in Ham-Nord, Qc
Mr. Dallaire has lived in his house since 2008. Over time, he noticed that the humidity level in his house was very high, a foul odor was present in the rooms of the house and there were traces of mold in some area of the place.He contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, because he was no longer comfortable in his house and wanted to fix the situation quickly.
Mr. Dallaire had never been in his crawl space since he bought the house and yet it was the cause of all his problems.
Our experts went to the site to isolate the crawl space.
1. They first installed SilverGlo insulation panels on the crawl space walls.
2. Next they installed 3/4 inch TerraBlock insulation sheets. These sheets are installed on the ground and adjust according to the ground and will insulate the crawl space. SilverGlo Panels and Terrablock Sheets combined together are the ideal option for achieving the best possible energy efficiency. You will keep the cold outside and the heat inside your crawl space!
3. To finalize the whole thing, they put our CleanSpace membrane to cover and protect the Terrablock and thus provide an isolated and dry environment.
With this solution, the customer was able to notice very quickly that the humidity in his house had decreased considerably and the unpleasant smell was gone. Not to mention that he now had a clean, dry crawl space!
Basement Waterproofing in Saint-Fortunat, Quebec
Our client, a homeowner in Saint-Fortunat, Quebec, was worried about the situation within his basement. Humidity was high and moisture smells were making things uncomfortable. Upon the visit of our specialist, he explained that the absence of a drainage system is resulting in water seeping inside the basement and thus increasing moisture. If things remained that way, mold will most probably grow, and we might face structural damages. As a solution, we installed our patented WaterGuard drainage system along the footing of the basement. The installation was quick and smooth, with minimal disturbance. In addition, and to maximize the good results, we installed our CleanSpace vapor barriers on the wall. This membrane will limit the moisture coming from the basement walls.

At our client's home in Inverness, the basement had a combination of problems including moisture, water infiltration, damp walls, wet floors, condensation, mold odors, stale air, and material degradation, affecting comfort, indoor air quality, and home performance.

The result: a basement that is now dry, waterproof, clean, protected against infiltration, free from excessive moisture, odors, and mold, offering enhanced structural stability and a healthy and safe space for the home.
