Photo Album: Crawl Space encapsulation in Montreal, Qc
Mrs. Wilberg had a crawl space with water seeping in that created a lot of humidity in the crawl space, but also in the house. Moisture comes from the earthen floor and concrete foundation walls.
Solution
- Install a drainage membrane and a CleanSpace vapor barrier.
The drainage membrane creates a drainage space below the cleanspace to direct surface water to the customer's sump pump system. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick coating that acts as a vapor barrier. It insulates the floor of the house by blocking out moisture.
A damp crawl space
Due to long periods of heavy rain or snow, groundwater can seep into the crawl space from the dirt floor, and ruin the place.
Mold growth and filthy crawl space
Crawl space leaks can go unnoticed for a long period leaving rot and mold to grow rampant and leading to expensive repairs later on.
Old sump
This old sump pump was very old, rusty and did not function properly, and people always need to check whether their sump pump is good enough.
CleanSpace drainage matting
The raised dimples on our CleanSpace Drainage Matting gives the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath your crawl space liner.
Installing our SmartDrain to protect the crawl space from flooding
If a plumbing failure occurs, this system will drain the water beneath your vapor barrier, preventing it from collecting in the space.
CleanSpace Vapor Barrier
To stop moisture from passing through your floors and porous concrete walls, a crawl space liner should be installed. A durable liner will allow for servicemen to use the space without damage while transforming your crawl space into usable storage space.
