In the before photo, you'll notice the challenge we faced: A damp crawl space in Cookshire-Eaton, QC, that made a homeowner reach out to us. Moisture not only threatened the home's structure but the air quality as well. Enter our solution – as seen in the after photo. We installed CleanSpace, an innovative barrier that locks out moisture, include a drainage matting, as well as a vapor barrier. Together, these products transformed the crawl space into a dry, healthier part of the home. Our mission was accomplished by providing a remarkable customer experience and ensuring a lasting solution to the problem.

When a customer calls us for expert advice on mold issues in the crawl space, we are always happy to help, especially when it comes to ancestral homes. Our solutions help solve problems with water and water vapor and help preserve the value of the home by protecting it. The CleanSpace membrane is a crawl space vapor barrier that prevents water vapor from the floor from humidifying the crawl space and damaging the organic building material. It allows water to be redirected to a floor drain that draws water away from the home. The CleanSpace membrane also contains an antibacterial that prevents the proliferation of molds. This encapsulation solution solves the problem of humidity in the crawl space once and for all!

Problem

• High humidity in the crawl space and inside the house

• Damaged Joists and support pillars in the crawl space due to humidity

• Sagging of the main floor

Solution

Encapsulation of the crawl space with our CleanSpace drainage membrane and vapor barrier then the installation of additional SmartJack support pillars to reinforce the structure of the house.

In Sainte-Clotilde-de-Horton, QC, we tackled a century-old house showing the signs of time and distress. With an irregular stone foundation causing unsettling across floors, it was a call for us at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec. As you can see in the photos, we introduced our reliable SmartJack and CleanSpace solutions. The transformation is astounding—solid, stabilized floors above and a protected, encased crawl space below. With such foundation fortification, the home is now prepared to stand another century.
