Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Crawl space repair in Sainte-Adele
We went to this client house in Sainte-Adele and we completely isolated her crawlspace with our CleanSpace membrane, and our SuperSump Pump System to evacuate all intercepted water away from home .Also we have insulated the stone walls with our Foamax wall insulation that holds the heat inside and the floor with TerraBlock which is a product specially designed for crawl space floors.
Crawl space entrance
Some crawl spaces are accessible from inside the house. In this case, the specialist had access to the service cellar from outside and was allowing water to seep inside during thaw season.

Humid and wet floor due to water penetration.
Old sump pump used by our client
The customer had already a pump installed in his crawl space, but it was always clogging and stopped working.
Thick vapour barrier membrane
The CleanSpace membrane is made of 7 layers of expanded polyethylene. A bit like a pool liner but thicker.
Supersump Pump installed in Sainte-Adele
Installing a sump pump system is necessary, since it allows us to connect the inner drain in order to channel the water .Also it helps to drain the water from below the floor in order to lower the level of humidity.
