Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Encapsulation and stabilization of a crawl space in Saint-Esprit.
Mr. Bernier had a wet crawl space where support beams began to sag. The infiltrating water was neither blocked nor drained, which caused it to accumulate in the air and be absorbed by the support beams.
To solve this problem, we installed a CleanSpace membrane to block water vapor, a SmartDrain drain to accumulate and redirect water, as well as SmartJacks support pillars and SmartJacks support beams.

Sagging crawl space in Saint-Esprit
As a crawl space sags, it begins to pull down everything above it. One of the early signs of a weakened structure will be a "springy" floor above. Soon afterwards, the floor will show signs of sinking downwards.

Our technicians had to remove the concrete from the area in which the pillar was to be sunk. To do this, the specialists must break the cement in the basement and dig the earth to get to the footing of the foundation.
