Hemmingford, QC's Expert in Foundation Repair & Waterproofing

Every basement problem and its repair is different; and when you don’t have any sort of protection, chances are you will need to waterproof your basement, repair the foundation or remove the existing mold.

Our clients in Hemmingford did not have any foundation problems, but they needed to waterproof the basement, since water was coming in from many places.

In addition humidity level was increasing in the basement, and spreading all over the house as well, which is was bad for the people living in.

So when our team got a phone call from our customers in Hemmingford, regarding all of those complaints, we reassured them that their problem can be easily fixed, with only few days of time.

At start, we went to their place to inspect the area, and locate the problems, and provided them with our solutions, from an interior drainage system ‘the WaterGuard, to drain all the water from the walls and floors, that will be connected to a sump pump ‘the TripleSafe pump’; this sump pump system provides the ultimate protection against basement leaks and moisture problems; and finally we installed our Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier which will eliminate muggy feeling caused by high humidity, and will stop mold growth, musty odors & dust mites.

Thanks to our products and fast execution, the place is now fully waterproofed, and the clients were very satisfied with the results.

If your house has a crawl space, it is imperative to keep it dry and free from humidity. A damp crawl space is the perfect upbringing ground for mold and mildew.

Furthermore, it could be an invitation to termites, not to mention other vermin that like the dark and damp spaces such as snakes, rats, spiders, and other unwanted guests. So So When your crawl space does become damp, you will need to encapsulate it!

Our client from Hemmingford was interested in our encapsulation system, because he felt that the air in his crawl space was very wet. In addition, the customer seemed to want to sell the house, so he wanted a solution that would solve the problem of moisture and that would not scare away potential buyers.

So we proposed a complete encapsulation solution with our products specially designed by engineers for the crawl space.

We have installed our patented CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane. The CleanSpace membrane is composed of 7 layers of treated polyethylene in which an antibacterial additive is added. The membrane is finally treated with an ultra-violet additive in order to extend its resistance and its life span as long as possible.

In addition, we installed our SmartJacks that are specially designed for crawl spaces. They support and stabilize your foundations and are adjustable to adapt to the movement of the ground.

Finally our client opted for the Sanidry CX, which is a self-draining system that eliminates the chore of emptying collection trays, while an air filter eliminates particles from the air as small as 2 microns!

Our experts can transform your crawl space into a dry, usable, and more energy efficient space quickly -- often in a day or less!

Water in your home's crawl space is very annoying. Water leakage or even just ever-present moisture in the air can create mold problems that lead to chronic health issues for your family.

In addition, water in a crawl space can lead to rot and decay that weaken structural members and make major architectural repairs necessary. The presence of moisture can also foster termites, carpenter ants, and other pests that can damage your home and affect your quality of life.

We have encapsulated this house in Hemmingford, Qc by installing our products, from the SmartSump pump to make sure that the water leaking in gets to it instead of ponding.

This pump is made for crawl spaces with a high quality, 1/3 horsepower zoeller cast iron pump, and an automatic float switch. In addition, this pump is compatible with the vapor barrier systems.

So as for covering the wet walls and exposed earth, we installed the patented CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system, which is a very heavy duty material that has an anti-microbial ingredient molded into the material to resist mold and bacteria growth.

As a result, our client was very happy he could save a lot on his electricity bills.

In addition, the air circulating in the house is now fully dry and does not smell bad as before.

In order to dry off a wet basement, you must begin by determining the cause. Common explanations include the infiltration of surface water, infiltration of groundwater, or air with unusually high moisture content.

So when our client from Hemmingford contacted us, our specialist went to his home and recommended a waterproofing system consisting of an interior drainage system’the Waterguard’ and a SuperSump pump system.

So we dug the ground and installed the WaterGuard interior drain in this perimeter. This allows all incoming water to be redirected to the pump no matter what level this water is coming from.

And finaly all drainage was connected to the SuperSump pump system.

The SuperSump system contains a Zoeller pump, a 96-hole liner to allow water into the floor to enter the liner, an airtight lid that prevents water vapor from escaping, and an alarm system that alerts you when the water shows too high.

This house is now fully waterproofed and our client is very happy with the results!

Today building scientists recommend that crawl spaces must be sealed or “encapsulated” to prevent problems caused by crawl space moisture. The encapsulation process involves completely isolating the crawl space interior from damp exterior conditions.

So when our client who lives in Hemmingford called us asking for some recommendations regarding his wet crawl space, we sent out expert Jorge for a free inspection.

Jorge has informed Mrs. Claude that she needs to encapsulate her crawl space and install the following products:

A Cleanspace Liner to block water vapor, a SmartDrain to collect water seepage, and a Sanidry Cx to keep the air dry.

The SmartSump System is designed specifically for crawl spaces and this system comes with a battery backup pump which the best way to avoid common sump pump problems.

Our Cleanspace vapor barrier prevents the evaporation of ground moisture into the crawl space air.

As for the SaniDry Cx dehumidifier is a powerful system that is appropriate for basement and crawl space environment alike, and is able to remove up to 109 Pints of water daily.

Our client has finally realized that in order to potect his home & health, he needs to control moisture in there and encapsulate the area.
