A large service cellar encapsulated in Sainte-Adèle, Quebec

Cellars areas are sometimes used by the owners to store several objects and products as is the case of our client in Sainte-Adèle. This family contacted us to isolate their cellar area because infiltration of water and moisture threatened their property. To stop their worries, we recommended insulating the stone walls with our Foamax wall insulation that holds the heat inside. Then we insulated the floor with TerraBlock which is a product specially designed for crawl space floors. We also installed our CleanSpace Drain Mat and Vapor Barrier and SuperSump Sump Pump System to evacuate all intercepted water away from home.

Sagging floors in a crawl space in Saint-colomban

If you're buying a home, it's important to have your home inspector check out the crawl space before you finalize the sale.

Our client has bought his house in Saint-Colomban several years ago, and started having sagging floors in his house and knew that he needed to find specialists to solve this situation.

After finding our company, we sent our team to inspect the area and so we suggested a full encapsulation of the crawl space.

We installed our Drainage Mat to redirect the water to one of our best sump pump systems known as ‘The SuperSump’ pump system. The SuperSump pump is one of the best pumps in the market with more than 100 holes to drain the water under the slab.

Then we installed our CleanSpace waterproofing membrane to prevent the evaporation of ground moisture into the crawl space air.

And finally, and in order to stabilize the floors in the house, we installed 2 SmartJacks supports. The SmartJack is a support beam designed by engineers that adjusts to the exact height between the solid base and the support beam at the top.

A well-insulated and encapsulated crawl space in Saint-Colomban

Our customer in Saint-Colomban noticed that he had signs of moisture problems in his crawl space. We offered to come for a free inspection. During this inspection, our specialist Alexandrine discovered several signs of moisture problems, such as rotten wood pillars, degraded foam insulation, efflorescence, and rusted pipes. Relative humidity in the crawl space was measured at over 80%, well above the recommended 55%. She decided that the best way to solve these problems was to completely insulate and encapsulate the crawl space.

 

To begin, our team removed the old insulation to install the SilverGlo™ waterproof insulation. Next, they installed CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier, a durable 20-millimeter-thick sheathing system that resists tearing and offers better protection against moisture intrusion than thinner, more widely available solutions. Finally, they installed a powerful SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, which removes 2.9 liters of water per kilowatt-hour (L/kWh). After our team's hard work, our customer no longer has to worry about moisture in his crawl space and the consequences it brings. Thank you for trusting us with your project, Mr. Craig!

Encapsulation of a wet crawl space in Saint-Anicet.

Mr. Tessier contacted us for a free evaluation to encapsulate his crawl space. There was already insulation, but it was not made with products designed especially for crawl space.

Our specialist Sam went to Saint-Anicet to give this advice and make this submission.

He recommended the installation of our CleanSpace crawl space waterproofing membrane and the SmartDrain drain that will capture the infiltration of water from the earth. All of this is connected to the Sanidry Sedona dehumidification and air purification system. This area is finally dry and clean and contributes to the circulation of clean air throughout the house.

Transformation of a crawl space in Terrasse-Vaudreuil

When you receive instructions from your insurance company to repair your crawl space and you do not really know what a crawl space is and how to isolate it, trust specialists who have been doing this for years with products and solutions that have proven themselves.

Thanks to the insulation and encapsulation system, we were able to transform this damaged space into a dry space whose humidity rate meets the respiratory health standard. The crawl space is now more economical, less dirty and usable for storage purposes.

Products included in this installation are: CleanSpace drainage mat, TerraBlock floor insulation, CleanSpace waterproofing membrane, SilverGlo wall insulation, sump pump, CleanSpace ventilation hatch cover, vacuum access door sanitary EverLast and dehumidifier SaniDry Sedona.
