Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Having discovered our company on Facebook, this customer living in Saint-Lambert area contacted us to tell us about his concerns about humidity and support system in his crawl space. Indeed, the air in the area was very heavy and cold. In addition, the support pillars were not strong enough because they did not support the floor of the upper floor properly, which caused it to sag. These problems are very dangerous for the health of the home and the safety of the family living there.

For example, we sent one of our specialists who recommended the installation of the following products: SilverGlo insulation panels, 12 SmartJack support pillars, WaterGuard interior foundation drain, SuperSump sump pump system, freeze protection IceGuard Discharge Line, LawnScape Discharge Line Discharge Mouth.

With these products, the water can no longer infiltrate the crawl space and affect the air by releasing water vapor, because the water is intercepted by the internal drain and discharged by the sump pump. The water vapor is blocked by the SilverGlo insulation and the crawl space roof is now more than solid thanks to the SmartJacks

Dry air in a crawl space is important for several reasons. The humidity is bad for the respiratory health of people who live in the house because the moist air aggravates the symptoms of asthma and allergies. Dry air offers better air quality and a more comfortable environment.

If you dry the air in the crawl space, the air rises throughout the house and makes it dry. In addition, moist air is expensive to cool. A SaniDry dehumidifier like the one we have installed at this customer's house allows you to dry and lighten the air in the crawl space and therefore throughout the house. Therefore it will cost you less to heat or cool.

The SaniDry dehumidifier is rated EnergyStar.

Our client in Longueuil called to have his crawl space encapsulated. This picture shows the big difference between an encapsulated and insulated crawlspace, and the many earth crawl spaces you can find in Quebec. 

The insulation helped solve many issues the client had, such as insulating the upper floors from the cold, making the crawlspace clean and letting him use the crawlspace as an additional storage room.

One of our clients living in Anjou had excess humidity within his crawl space. This was alarming as same will affect the quality of air inside the house. Face to this issue, our specialist suggest installing our CleanSpace encapsulation system including the drainage matting which leads the infiltrated water to the drainage system, and the vapor barrier which protects the crawl space for high humidity levels. In addition, we installed the SmartDrain which detects any water infiltration and alerts the owners to avoid any flooding. 

Client was very satisfied with our work, knowing that his crawl space is dry and thus his home is healthy. 

Moisture is very often damaging to a home and will cause unpleasant odors, and can also attack the wood and thus create mold.

Mr. Gilles from Anjou started having those problems in his house and contacted us in order to help him find the best solution with the minimum cost.

Our technicians led by foreman Petru then proceeded to install a CleanSpace membrane in order to stop water vapor from flowing up the soil and through the walls, and a SmartSump pump system that is equipped with a cast-iron Zoeller sump pump, a reliable liner, a sump alarm, and an optional battery backup sump pump, it's exactly what you need to ensure a dry crawl space all the time!
