Mr. Trepanier from Chertsey, Quebec, contacted us seeking a full crawl space repair. Following a free inspection, our specialist, Alexandrine, recommended a solution involving encapsulation, a new sump pump system, a dehumidifier, and the installation of a new exterior drainage system. Our dedicated team executed the plan by installing the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Drainage Matting System, SmartSump™ Crawl Space Sump Pump system, CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier, SaniDry™ Dehumidifier, and IceGuard® and LawnScape Outlet to ensure efficient water management. With the expertise of Basement Systems Quebec, our client can now enjoy peace of mind, free from concerns about a flooded crawl space.

A homeowner in Saint-Mathieu-De-Beloeil, QC, faced excessive humidity and cold in their crawl space, which affected the air quality in their home, and jeopardized their foundation. After a thorough inspection, our Specialist Roxane confirmed the issue could lead to mold growth and structural damage. We solved the problem by installing CleanSpace, a moisture-proof liner, and SilverGlo insulation, transforming the crawl space into a dry, energy-efficient area, greatly improving the home's comfort and air quality.

A crawl space is a bad thing for the house. In fact, clay floors are filled with water and transmit water vapors filled with moisture, bacteria, and mold. As the air flows upwards, the air in the crawl space goes to the upper floors of your home, causing you to breathe infected air. In order to solve this problem and make the air in your home healthier, it is important to encapsulate the crawlspace. In order to do do so, we 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 lifespan as long as possible. Crawl space encapsulation allows this space to be healthier and more useful because you can now use it to store your belongings. All of this gives value to your home!

Before tackling this humid crawl space in Sutton, QC, our team met with the homeowner facing the all-too-common issue of a damp, musty space beneath their home.

Notice in the "after" photo how this area has been transformed into a clean, dry space. Our commitment to delivering both a remarkable customer experience and durable solutions shines through once again, solving problems and exceeding expectations.

PROBLEM

The client was unaware of the state of her crawl space in the first years after moving in. Once she saw the space, filled with iron ochre, she got worried. She decided to contact us.

SOLUTION

It was essential to install a pump since the iron ochre had blocked the existing drains, creating water infiltration. We also opted for the CleanSpace product, so Mrs. Nathalie could enjoy a clean crawl space. She now feels reassured that the crawl space will be efficient in her home in Saint-Calixte, QC.
