Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

PROBLEM

The client was unaware of the state of her crawl space in the first years after moving in. Once she saw the space, filled with iron ochre, she got worried. She decided to contact us.

SOLUTION

It was essential to install a pump since the iron ochre had blocked the existing drains, creating water infiltration. We also opted for the CleanSpace product, so Mrs. Nathalie could enjoy a clean crawl space. She now feels reassured that the crawl space will be efficient in her home in Saint-Calixte, QC.

The problem: This Lachine client’s problem was that she had no protection and the humidity level in her crawl space was very high.

The solution: We installed a membrane called CleanSpace which acts as a vapor barrier and below it we installed a drainage membrane so that it redirects the water to the drain.

After a building inspector did a full house inspection on Ms. Pépin Sainte-Julienne property, he discovered an important humidity problem in her crawlspace. Since she wanted to sell her house, this could have prevented the sale from happening. Her sump pump was not reliable and the 6 mil membrane installed in her crawlspace was in a very bad shape.

She contacted Systèmes Sous-sol to find a solution to her humidity problem.

To solve our client's humidity and water infiltration problems, our team of basement experts installed a new SmartSump sump pump system, an EZ flow crawlspace drain along the foundation walls and covered the whole crawlspace with our CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation membrane. 

This helped prevent water infiltration and cut off the crawlspace and house completely from the earth's humidity.

Ms. Pépin now enjoys a dry crawlspace and can sell her house without any issues.

In this crawl space in Sainte Julienne, moisture, odors, and mold growth were already causing damage. We applied a comprehensive solution to clean up and protect the space for the long term.

We treated the surfaces with MoldX2, a product designed to eliminate mold and prevent its return. Next, we installed CleanSpace membrane, a durable vapor barrier that blocks moisture from the floor and walls. Under the membrane, drainage mats were laid to facilitate water drainage and prevent accumulation. A SmartDrain was also added to detect and drain any water infiltration. Finally, the SaniDry Sedona reduced ambient humidity, purified the air, and prevented odors and deterioration.

Thanks to this comprehensive system, MoldX2, CleanSpace, drainage, SmartDrain, and SaniDry Sedona, the crawl space is now clean, dry, better protected, and healthier for the entire home.

Facing rot wood in their crawl space, a worried homeowner in Saint-Alexis, QC, turned to us for a lasting fix. The potential structural damage was quite severe. Our solution? We installed SmartJack for reliable support, wrapped the area in CleanSpace to seal out moisture, and insulated with SilverGolo for energy efficiency. The transformation, evident in the after photo, not only rectified the issue but also ensured their home's stability and comfort for years to come.
