Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Encapsulation in Saint-Lambert-De-Lauzon, Qc

It is very necessary to encapsulate a crawl space, since having accumulated humidity will help bacteria and mold to spread, and this will affect the overall air quality of the house. To solve this problem in this place in Saint-Lambert-De-Lauzon, we installed the CleanSpace membrane which is an ultra-resistant coating specially made for crawl spaces. In addition, to dry and purify the air, we installed our SaniDry XP air dehumidification system.

Crawl spaces are very often filled with water, causing water vapor to escape into the air and make it moist and full of bacteria.

Moisture enter crawl spaces throughout vents

The vents in the crawl space walls are a source of moisture. The idea behind those vents was to dry out the crawl space, but they actually do the opposite.

Signs of a moist crawl space

These signs include bugs that make their way into the rest of your house — spiders, camel crickets, termites, slugs, centipedes, and millipedes all thrive where there’s moisture.

CleanSpace drainage matting

This matting has dints that give the water flooding into your crawl space a channel underneath your crawl space liner and will direct the water flooding to your perimeter crawl space drain.

Installation of the water vapor membrane

The CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system is a heavy duty 7-Layer liner material, like a pool liner.

CleanSpace membrane installation

The membrane gets installed across the floor and up the walls and sealed around all piers and pipes.

The SaniDry XP to dehumidify the crawl space

The SaniDry dehumidification system is so powerful that it can dry out your crawl space and even dry building materials like wood. In addition, dehumidifying the air helps eliminate mold and proliferation of mites.
