Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair in Saint-colomban, QC

Mr. Craig contacted us because he was having humidity problems in his crawl space. We then offered to come for a free inspection to see how we could help him. During this inspection, our specialist Alexandrine discovered many issues that had been caused by the humidity, such as rotting wood pillars, degraded spray foam insulation, efflorescence, and rust. The relative humidity in the crawl space was measured to be over 80%, well over the recommended 55%. We concluded that the best way to help resolve the humidity problem was to fully insulate and encapsulate the crawl space.

We first started by removing the existing insulation, then installing the SilverGlo™ Crawl Space Wall Insulation System. This insulation system is made of completely inorganic materials; therefore, it will not absorb moisture and support the growth of mold, rot, or mildew. It is also waterproof, and it creates a vapor barrier on the walls.

Next, we installed the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Drainage Matting System to drain water from underneath the liner directly to the sump pump and drain system. This drainage matting system is installed underneath the vapor barrier system to prevent water buildup underneath the materials.

We then installed the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier System on top of the drainage matting system. This durable, 20-Mil liner system is tear resistant and provides enhanced protection against moisture intrusion compared to thinner alternatives like you can get at your local hardware store. The white colour maximizes the effectiveness of the available lighting in the space and renders it useful for storage. It even includes UltraFresh™ Anti-Mold Additive, a treatment that works at a cellular level to continually disrupt the growth and reproduction of microorganisms, ensuring it will never support mold growth. As a bonus, CleanSpace® will even serve as a passive radon mitigation system.

To finish off, our team installed the SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier, the world's most efficient, high-performance dehumidifier and filtration system. It removes 2.9 liters per kilowatt-hour (L/kWh), has an automatic humidity sensor, and is connected directly to the drainage system, so there are no messy trays or buckets of water to empty. Additionally, the MERV 8 filter removes mold spores, dust mite droppings, dust, and other particulates. It can even be ducted to reduce the noise level.

Our client can now sleep easily knowing his crawl space is no longer humid and is protected from mold and other humidity consequences. Thank you for trusting us with your project, Mr. Craig!

This client from Saint-Colomban had an old sump pump in his basement, but unfortunately it failed to pump out all the water during heavy rain season.

After finding our company on the internet, he contacted us because he was interested in our patented systems and wanted us to examine his place.

When our specialist went to his place, he recommended a complete waterproofing system from which the installation of an interior drain; a TripleSafe sump pump system which contains 3 pumps in a single hermetic coating; a CleanSpace wall covering membrane that lets all wall seepage and moisture to flow into your perimeter drain system.

Our client was very pleased with the installation and the peace of mind that our company offered him.

Home buyers rarely give much thought to what's right under their feet when looking for homes, but they should especially if they're walking on top of a crawl space.

When our client bought his house in Saint-Colomban several years ago, he had no idea what might come from his crawl space, until he started having sagging floors in his house. The reasons behind this problem were due to the high level of humidity in the crawl space.

In addition a crawl space with excess moisture can be a breeding ground for mold, fungi, termites, and potentially even rodents.

Mr. Yvan found our company and contacted us to check his entire place, and after the inspection we confirmed his suspicions and suggested a full encapsulation for his crawl space.

We started by installing our Drainage Mat to redirect the water to one of our best sump pump systems known as  ‘The SuperSump’ pump system.

Then we installed our CleanSpace waterproofing membrane to prevents the evaporation of ground moisture into the crawl space air.

And finally, and in order to stabilize the floors in the house, we installed 2 SmartJacks supports. The SmartJack is a support beam designed by engineers that adjusts to the exact height between the solid base and the support beam at the top.

Having a healthy and useable crawl space is one of our priorities and we are proud of the work done by our production team.

Groundwater seeped into our client’s basement in Saint-Colomban, and water has damaged the wood, the carpet and all organic materials in that place.

Mr. Roy was not able to use his basement anymore, and it was costing him a lot every time to fix his furniture, and the place, until he found our company and knew that we would find him a permanent solution for his problems.

Our team of professionals went for a free inspection and according to it we have sent our client a quotation that once approved on, work was started.

As a start, we began by installing our interior drain system: ‘The WaterGuard’. This interior drain will direct all the water seeping into the sump pump and is installed on the footing of the foundation, in about 2 days only.

And then we finished it by installing a ThermalDry floor tiles. This basement flooring can never be damaged by mold and has 10 years of warranty!

This basement is now being used again by our client thanks to our work and having implemented the best products available in the market.
