Before & After Photos

Here is the crawl space of a house located in Notre-Dame-De-La-Merci. These customers had water in their crawl space, as well as high humidity under and inside their home. We therefore carried out a complete encapsulation and waterproofing of the crawl space with our CleanSpace encapsulation system and our WaterGuard interior drain system.

The management of Saint-Jerome day care center knew that the health and the quality of the air in their place need to be perfect. Since the place is mainly filled with babies and kids, it will be very bad if mold and bacteria spread in that place.

We have sent our specialist Jorge to check the entire place and examine the crawl space and after locating the problem he recommended many solutions for all the problems.

As a start, the debris has been removed by the Mold-X2. Mold-X2 is a very strong mold decontamination product that we apply to all wood and masonry.

Then we installed the SmartSump sump pump system which is our smallest system specifically designed to be installed in crawl spaces.

Next step was installing the CleanSpace membrane, which is a vapor barrier that blocks water infiltrations and vapors to redirect them to the interior drainage system.

And finally and in order to dehumidify the place, the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was inserted. This product is the most efficient direct flow system and is also very energy efficient (EnergyStar).

The problem

Mrs. Desjarlaies had humidity problems in her house that came from her earthen crawl space that was not insulated. The relative humidity in the crawl space at the time of the inspection with our specialist was 83.2%. With such high humidity, mold and rot of organic materials develop and the comfort of the house will be affected.

The solution

We installed a new SmartSump sump system, a CleanSpace drainage membrane, and then a Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier.

With these solutions, the water in the ground will be removed and ejected outside, the humidity coming from the earth floor and the concrete block foundation walls will be blocked thanks to the CleanSpace and the humidity level can be controlled by the dehumidifier.

We encountered a significant challenge within a house in Pointe-Calumet, QC : Moisture and mold were proliferating in an unsealed crawl space. The 'before' photo illustrates conditions that were not only unsightly but posed serious health risks. Our effective solution involved the installation of CleanSpace and SilverGlo systems. The 'after' photo showcases a meticulously transformed space that now effectively protects against moisture infiltration and decay. We did not merely rectify the issue; we implemented a long-lasting solution that ensures the integrity of our client's home and provides them with peace of mind.

When water seeps into the crawl space and gets stuck, the water evaporates into the air and humidifies the basement.

This is the case of our client’s crawl space in Notre-Dame-de-l'Île-Perrot, that had a 79% level of humidity in the place, in addition to a wet and dirty area all the time.

Our team recommended a waterproofing solution and that would solve the problem of infiltration of water and moisture.

We installed the WaterGuard Interior Drain on the perimeter where there was a footing at the foundation and covered the concrete walls with the CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane that blocks moisture.
