Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: Flooding of a crawl space in Howick, Qc

Client Mr. Grant had wanted to sell his house for some time now. He found that he was not getting exactly the offers he expected. When he received the report that one of the potential clients had made with an inspector, what most affected the amount was the disturbing state of the crawl space. The amount of water that infiltrated on a recurring basis and the materials left with mold were cooling many buyers. Mr. Grant wanted to fix the situation once for all and give future owners the peace of mind. So he chose a suit perfectly designed for this type of space. A SmartSump pump, to keep the crawl space dry, the CleanSpace product and the Drainage Matting. The crawl space is now a clean, usable space that will no longer affect the air on the floors.

The client did not know where to start given the condition of the place

The CleanSpace product isolates your home from the earth, dramatically reducing the level of humidity in the air. Lower humidity levels reduce or even eliminate the growth of mold, rot and insects, rodents in your crawl space.

Materials left in the water were covered with mold

A wet basement can create a lot of problems for your home when it comes to comfort and functionality. This humidity can cause health problems for family members in many cases.

In a house, air flows naturally from the bottom to the top. This pulls humid air and everything in it upwards into the living spaces of the house. Mold spores, odors, moisture, and insects create a very unhealthy environment for people. Many people are allergic to it and have several symptoms; they don't realize that their earthen crawl space affects their health.

Complete encapsulation of the crawl space thanks to the CleanSpace

The crawl space is now protected from mold and water infiltration. The new owners now benefit from additional, dry and clean storage space.
