In Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel, our team at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec addressed a crawlspace issue involving persistent dampness, musty odors, and clear signs of water infiltration. These conditions not only affected indoor air quality but also posed a long-term risk to the foundation’s structural integrity.
To resolve the issue permanently, a comprehensive solution was implemented. First, a drainage membrane was installed directly on the crawl space floor to capture and divert water as soon as it enters, thereby preventing any accumulation under the house. Next, the CleanSpace system was added on top to create a continuous moisture barrier and completely seal off the space.
SilverGlo panels were also integrated to improve insulation and reduce heat loss. A SuperSump system was installed to ensure constant and efficient drainage of collected water. Finally, StarPipe was added to optimize drainage around the foundation and divert water away from the structure.
Thanks to this work, the crawl space is now dry, stable, and protected against future water infiltration. Systèmes Sous-sol Québec provides comprehensive solutions that combine drainage, waterproofing, and insulation to preserve the health of your foundation.

Our client residing in Saint-Bernard-De-Michaudville, Quebec, was concerned as moldy and moisture smells were coming out of his crawl space. During the inpsection, our specialist confirmed the presence of mold spores and excess humidity within the crawl space. In addition, he noticed that the beams supporting the floors above were starting to rot. Thus, as a remedy, we installed our CleanSpace encapsulation system. Same system include a drainage matting that will channel the water to the discharge lines, and a thick white vapor barrier that will regulate the moisture inside the crawl space. In addition, we put in place three of our SmarJack beams in order to support the floor above and prevent it from sagging. The transformation was radical and our client was finally relieved with the results being successful.
When a customer calls us for expert advice on mold issues in the crawl space, we are always happy to help, especially when it comes to ancestral homes. Our solutions help solve problems with water and water vapor and help preserve the value of the home by protecting it. The CleanSpace membrane is a crawl space vapor barrier that prevents water vapor from the floor from humidifying the crawl space and damaging the organic building material. It allows water to be redirected to a floor drain that draws water away from the home. The CleanSpace membrane also contains an antibacterial that prevents the proliferation of molds. This encapsulation solution solves the problem of humidity in the crawl space once and for all!
