Crawlspace encapsulation in Papineauville, QC

PROBLEM

A house in Papineauville had a damp crawl space. There were water infiltrations coming from the walls, which caused mold growth. During our free inspection, our specialist Houssem took care of the visit. Descending into the crawl space, he was able to identify mold, causing an unpleasant odor. Serious structural damage that could even affect the foundation of the house could occur in case no action was taken.

SOLUTION

Encapsulation of the crawl space using the CleanSpace system. This involves covering the crawl space floor with a drainage membrane and a vapor barrier on top:

The drainage membrane has a cellular surface that helps transport infiltrated water towards the drainage or sump pump.

- The vapor barrier prevents the evaporation of infiltrated water, thereby eliminating excessive humidity. It also includes an antimicrobial additive that prevents mold growth.

- To ensure good thermal insulation of the crawl space walls, we installed SilverGlo wall insulation panels. In addition to resisting thermal conduction, SilverGlo panels have a radiant barrier that reflects heat inside the crawl space for energy savings.

 

Radical Transformation inside a crawl space in Montobello, Quebec

Encapsulating a damp crawl space with our CleanSpace system is an effective solution to moisture problems that can lead to mold growth, unpleasant odors, and structural damage. The CleanSpace system involves installing a durable, vapor-resistant liner that completely seals the crawl space from outside elements, preventing moisture from entering. This system not only protects the home’s foundation but also enhances energy efficiency by insulating the area, creating a cleaner, drier, and healthier environment. With CleanSpace, homeowners can enjoy long-term peace of mind knowing their crawl space is fully protected against dampness and its damaging effects.

CleanSpace: the simple solution for a healthy crawl space

In Montebello Quebec, one of our customers' crawl space was suffering from high humidity, unpleasant odors and signs of mold. To remedy the situation, we installed our CleanSpace membrane : a thick, resistant coating that completely insulates the floor and walls, preventing ground-level moisture from rising to the surface. This solution creates a watertight barrier, transforming the space into a clean, dry and healthy environment. Since installation, customers benefit from a protected crawl space, and the air in their home is more pleasant.

Cracked Foundation Wall in Cornwall, Ontario

This client contacted us initially to fix his humidity problem in his crawlspace, but while we were there, we noticed that there was a very large crack in the foundation wall of the crawl space.

We fixed this issue by installing the PowerBrace system. It consists of zinc coated beams and components. PowerBraces utilize a joist reinforcement that distributes the load evenly. The crawl space is now stable and sealed.

Installation of our CleanSpace water vapor and waterproofing the place in Grenville-Sur-La Rouge Qc

If your foundation is disposed to to condensation or general sogginess such as this basement in Grenville-Sur-La Rouge, we recommend our vapor barrier liner to be installed on your basement walls with our waterproofing system.

The durable liner will work along with our waterproofing system by pushing water along the foundation down into the interior drainage system ‘the Waterguard’ instead of seeping onto the floor.
