Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Mr. Woods has an earthen crawl space with several problems:

- Water infiltration

- Humidity

- Mold

When it rains or during spring, water infiltrates in his crawl space creating a lot of humidity and mold over time. Another source of moisture is the earthen ground. The water in the soil evaporates creating moisture.

All of This has affected the comfort of his home, as his floors were cold and there was a smell of dampness in the house.So he contacted Systèmes Sous-sol in order to isolate his crawl space and resolve his problems definitively.

The solution

First, the mold on the wooden walls was removed with our Mold-X product. Then, our experts installed our SilverGlo insulation panels on the walls of the crawl space. 2 '' thick panels with radiant barrier to isolate the cold and reflect heat inside the crawl space. They then laid our TerraBlock insulation sheets on the earthen floor. They made it possible to insulate the crawl space and protect it against humidity. Finally, our experts installed our CleanSpace coating on top of the TerraBlock. Moisture is therefore blocked, it protects the TerraBlock insulation sheets and crawl space into a clear and clean appearance.

A dirty and wet crawl space affects your entire home! As the air of a house moves from below to above, it is necessary to treat the problem at its source ... the crawl space. Encapsulating the area is a good thing for your home and your health! That's what our client in Gatineau is doing. Our specialist therefore recommended the best encapsulation products: CleanSpace, Delta MS, TerraBlock, SmartSump and SaniDry Sedona.

This client had cracks repaired in one wall of his block foundation, but had not repaired all of the walls. Over time, one of the walls will start to arch and tilt inward from the basement. If nothing will be done, the situation will only get worse. So, he contacted Systèmes sous-sol Québec in order to stabilize his wall once and for all!

The residents of this house in Gatineau suffered from a very high level of humidity, caused by a non-isolated crawl space.

They have also noticed that the floor was sagging which caused them a deep concern.

As you can see in this picture, we have totally encapsulated the crawl space and the foundation.

Mrs. Monique B. from Gatineau called us to tell us about her problems related to mold and moisture in her crawl space. Our crew then proceeded to install a CleanSpace membrane, a SmartSump pump system, and two SmartJack support pillars. They also applied Mold-X Neutralizer to areas affected by mold. Our customer can now enjoy her basement without having to worry about water getting in!
