Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: A crawl space encapsulated and stabilized in Gore, Qc

This crawl space in Gore was suffering from dampness, so when Marc started looking for a way to solve this problem he found Systèmes Sous-sol Québec’, and during our free inspection, we told our client that he needed to encapsulate his crawl space and stabilize it as well. Our team suggested the installation of our CleanSpace vapor barrier and this will make sure that mold will not return again. Beneath the CleanSpace vapor barrier we installed drainage matting and finally we stabilized the place by installing our SmartJack system that provides supplemental support to crawl spaces.

The SmartSump’s unique, airtight two-piece lid allows for easy access to the pump as well as preventing any collected water from evaporating back into the crawl space.

Since moisture was very high, our team suggested the installation of our CleanSpace vapor barrier and this will make sure that mold will not return again.

CleanSpace drainage matting

Beneath the CleanSpace vapor barrier we installed a drainage matting which is designed to keep water from puddling up and force the flow of water towards the Smart drain.

This system provides supplemental support to crawl spaces and can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, taking them back to their original position.
