Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Mr. Galarneau from Boileau, Quebec, faced a persistent humidity problem at home for five years. After extensive internet searches, he discovered our website and reached out for help. Upon receiving his request, we promptly conducted a free inspection and provided a quote. Our specialist assessed the situation and recommended a comprehensive solution, including full encapsulation of the dirt crawl space using CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier and CleanSpace® Crawl Space Drainage Matting System. Three SmartJack® Crawl Space Stabilizer piers were installed to reinforce the floor, along with a new TripleSafe™ sump pump system, and IceGuard® and LawnScape discharge systems.

Foreman Felix executed the installation, addressing structural issues by installing SmartJack® piers. The dirt crawl space was encapsulated to reduce humidity, and a TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System was added for efficient water drainage. To prevent freezing and ensure proper water disposal, two IceGuard® and one LawnScape™ Discharge Line Outlet Systems were installed. Thanks to the expertise of our team at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, Mr. Galarneau's long-standing issues are now permanently resolved, saving him time and money.

In Amherst, our client was facing an increasingly worrying problem: a sagging crawl space, warped floor joists, and visible cracks in the walls and ceilings on the ground floor. These signs revealed a weakening of the load-bearing structure, a very common problem in old crawl spaces where moisture, wood rot, and unstable support pillars compromise the solidity of the house.

To permanently correct the situation, the Systèmes Sous-sol Québec team installed the SmartJack™ system, an adjustable galvanized steel structural reinforcement solution designed to support and straighten floor beams and joists. This system offers high load capacity and can be adjusted over time to ensure the home's long-term stability.

Thanks to this installation, the crawl space is now solid, secure, and compliant with modern structural standards. The ground floor has been restored to its original level, eliminating sagging and vibrations caused by lack of support. This transformation demonstrates how Systèmes Sous-sol Québec helps homeowners in Amherst and across Quebec correct floor sagging, prevent structural damage, and reinforce the durability of their homes with solutions such as SmartJack™.

Before our intervention, the owner was dealing with water infiltration from the garage drain, causing high humidity, condensation, unpleasant odors, and poor insulation in the crawl space. These problems caused discomfort, increased energy bills, and the risk of structural damage. To remedy this, the Systèmes Sous-sol Québec team installed CleanSpace™ drainage membrane and vapor barrier, along with SilverGlo™ wall insulation. The drainage matting facilitates water flow to the perimeter drainage or sump pump thanks to its honeycomb surface, while improving the durability of the encapsulation system. The CleanSpace™ vapor barrier, composed of seven layers and an UltraFresh antimicrobial additive, blocks moisture and prevents mold growth, wood rot, and groundwater infiltration. Combined with SilverGlo™ insulation, these solutions have transformed the crawl space into a dry, well-insulated, and durable space, ensuring a healthier, more energy-efficient, and moisture-protected home, illustrating Systèmes Sous-sol Québec's expertise in crawl space encapsulation and repair throughout the province.

If your foundation is disposed to to condensation or general sogginess such as this basement in Grenville-Sur-La Rouge, we recommend our vapor barrier liner to be installed on your basement walls with our waterproofing system.

The durable liner will work along with our waterproofing system by pushing water along the foundation down into the interior drainage system ‘the Waterguard’ instead of seeping onto the floor.

Our client from Saint-Urban-Premier called us regarding his damp crawl space.

This crawl space was so damp; the main beam was so wet and rotting so badly and became so loose due to moisture presence. It also had large mold growing all over it.

We knew right away that his place needs to be stabilized, so we suggested installing our SmartJack system which is a high-capacity, fully-adjustable steel pier, designed to stop settling and can raise your sagging floor back to the proper level.

In addition we suggested the installation of our CleanSpace vapor barrier that prevent moisture elevation and mold growth.

After the installation, this crawl space couldn’t be healthier and our client was very satisfied with the results.
