Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Courcelles, Quebec, reported excess humidity levels in their crawl space. Upon inspection, our specialist identified clear indicators of excessive moisture, including visible efflorescence on the foundation walls which is a sign of water migration through the walls.

To remediate the issue, we put in place the CleanSpace encapsulation system. This solution includes two primary components: A drainage matting that facilitates water flow toward an appropriate discharge system, and a high-performance vapor barrier engineered to isolate the crawl space from moisture. Together, these elements effectively regulate humidity levels, stop water infiltration, and prevent moisture evaporation from the soil beneath the structure.

The intervention has resulted in a controlled and safe crawl space environment, mitigating risks of structural degradation, mold growth, and poor indoor air quality. The space is now dry, sealed, and contributes to the long-term durability of the residence.

A client owning a house in Tring-Jonction, Quebec, was concerned about their crawl space. The humidity was becoming problematic, and the client wanted to address the issue before it worsened. During our inspection, our specialist noticed signs of humidity including the presence of efflorescence, which clearly indicated excess moisture. To resolve the issue, we installed the CleanSpace encapsulation system, which includes a drainage membrane and a high-performance vapor barrier. These two components work together to control humidity, prevent water infiltration, and stop moisture from evaporating from the soil. The crawl space is now fully protected, dry, and secure, ensuring the structural integrity of the home is preserved.

Before the work began, the crawl space presented several significant issues, including a high level of moisture buildup, persistent odors, and visible signs of condensation and material deterioration. This type of environment often promotes mold growth, the presence of fungi, as well as the risk of water infiltration and gradual structural deterioration. In this case, floor sagging and a lack of adequate support were also observed, which directly affected the stability and comfort of the home.

To address these issues, a comprehensive encapsulation solution was implemented using the CleanSpace system, installed over a drainage membrane to effectively control moisture and limit water seepage. The addition of a SuperSump sump pump now enables optimal groundwater management and significantly reduces the risk of flooding or stagnant water accumulation.

Moisture control has been enhanced through the installation of a high-performance SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, ensuring drier, healthier air and better long-term protection against mold. Finally, SmartJacks were installed to stabilize the structure, correct sagging, and restore the integrity of the floor.

This project offers a comprehensive crawl space repair solution that combines encapsulation, moisture control, drainage, and structural stabilization to deliver a durable, clean, and safe result.

A client in Vallee-Jonction, Quebec had concerns regarding their crawl space, which was experiencing humidity and unpleasant odors. Upon inspection, our specialist identified signs of compromised structural integrity, including presence of mold spores, which is a clear sign of excessive moisture levels within the crawl space.

To resolve the problem, we implemented the CleanSpace encapsulation system, which involved the installation of drainage matting and a high-performance vapor barrier. These two components work synergistically to regulate humidity levels, prevent the infiltration of water, and inhibit the evaporation of moisture from the soil. As a result, the crawl space is now fully encapsulated, dry, and secure, safeguarding the structural integrity of the home.

In Lac-Megantic, many homeowners encounter a common problem: floors that sag, creak, or bounce, often due to weakened joists in the crawl space. In this house, the instability of the beams was visible and worrisome, prompting the owners to seek a reliable solution to ensure the safety and comfort of their home.

To address this problem, we installed the SmartJack® system, specially designed to stabilize floor beams and joists and effectively straighten sagging floors. This intervention not only eliminates bounce and tilt, but also permanently reinforces the structure of the house.

Thanks to the galvanized steel used in the installation, the house now has a solid and durable foundation capable of supporting the floors over the long term. This solution provides homeowners with peace of mind, comfort, and safety for years to come.
