PROBLEM
There were water infiltrations from the damp ground, which facilitated the appearance of several mold stains. Our specialist Jennifer took care of the visit. By descending into the crawlspace, she identified excessive moisture, causing an unpleasant odor. Subsequently, she elaborated in detail on the solution, which consists of encapsulating the crawlspace to eliminate harmful moisture and prevent further structural damage that could even affect the foundation of the house.
SOLUTION
The encapsulation of the crawlspace consists of covering the floor with a drainage membrane and a vapor barrier above:
The drainage matting features a dimpled surface that helps channel infiltrated water towards the drainage or sump pump.
The vapor barrier prevents the evaporation of infiltrated water, thus eliminating excessive moisture. It also includes an antimicrobial additive to prevent mold growth.
To ensure proper thermal insulation of the crawl space walls, we installed SilverGlo wall insulation panels. In addition to resisting thermal conduction, the SilverGlo panels have a radiant barrier that reflects heat back into the crawl space for energy savings.
We installed our SmartSump sump pump system with the powerful Zoeller pump and the WaterWatch alarm, which helps prevent disasters.
This crawl space in Ile-Perrot was wet and in a bad condition.
After our inspection, we offered the perfect solution consisting of a CleanSpace crawl space mat, the CleanSpace vapor barrier, and the SmartSump sump pump system for small crawl spaces.
When we install these products together, the water is directed to the sump pump system that evacuates it away from the foundation. In addition, the membrane prevents water vapor from passing through the foundation and humidifying the space.

A client from Saint-Anicet had moisture problems in his crawl space. He noticed that some of the joists of his house were sagging slightly and the floor was bouncing under his feet.
Our technicians led by foreman Michel Leclerc proceeded to install 6 SmartJack support pillars.
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. It stabilizes your foundations in the crawl space to secure your home and restore its value.
This house in Beauharnois had some problems in its crawl space.
The place was very filthy and wet, in addition mold was growing very fast, which was affecting the air in the house as well.
Our team encapsulated this crawl space by installing our waterproofing products such as the SmartSump system and isolated the house from the earth by installing an antibacterial vapor barrier membrane that prevents all water vapors and bacteria from infiltrating and infecting the air.
Finally we added our SaniDry system in order to dehumidify the air.
