Stabilized and encapsulated crawl space in Saint-Esprit, Quebec

In this home located in Saint-Esprit, the crawl space exhibited several concerning signs: floors losing their stability, a strong sense of dampness throughout the house, and virtually no insulation beneath the structure. Over time, water accumulation and constant moisture had begun to weaken the structure and compromise indoor comfort.

Our team at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec therefore carried out a comprehensive intervention to address the issues at their source. A mat drainage system was first installed to control water at ground level and prevent it from pooling under the house. The crawl space was then encapsulated using the CleanSpace system to block moisture and create a much cleaner, more controlled environment.

To restore solid support to the structure, SmartJacks were added to stabilize the sagging floors. SilverGlo panels were also installed to improve the crawl space’s thermal performance and reduce heat loss.

The protection system was completed with a TripleSafe pump, an IceGuard, and an exterior drain line, ensuring reliable water drainage in all seasons, even during freezing conditions.

Today, this crawl space is not only drier and better insulated, but also much more stable and durable for years to come.
