After a building inspector did a full house inspection on Ms. Pépin Sainte-Julienne property, he discovered an important humidity problem in her crawlspace. Since she wanted to sell her house, this could have prevented the sale from happening. Her sump pump was not reliable and the 6 mil membrane installed in her crawlspace was in a very bad shape.
She contacted Systèmes Sous-sol to find a solution to her humidity problem.
To solve our client's humidity and water infiltration problems, our team of basement experts installed a new SmartSump sump pump system, an EZ flow crawlspace drain along the foundation walls and covered the whole crawlspace with our CleanSpace crawlspace encapsulation membrane.
This helped prevent water infiltration and cut off the crawlspace and house completely from the earth's humidity.
Ms. Pépin now enjoys a dry crawlspace and can sell her house without any issues.
This Côte-Saint-Luc customer needed an assessment from our company for a mold-to-crawl problem. When you see traces of mold in the crawl space, this is a sign that you need to dehumidify the space efficiently and permanently. As the crawl space is a space built in a hole in the ground, the water pressurizes and infiltrates through the ground and pores of the concrete.
Our waterproofing solutions solve these problems at the source. The CleanSpace drainage mat and vapor barrier membrane are installed on the floor to prevent water vapor from escaping into the air. We install on the walls the SilverGlo insulation which is an insulation board composed of graphite particles and which is covered with a radiant barrier to preserve the heat inside. It is a product that saves you a lot of energy consumption. Finally, the SaniDry dehumidifier keeps the space at an optimal relative humidity level. It is a system that empties automatically through a water drain pipe.
If you have a vented crawl space, especially in a humid climate, it most likely has moisture problems.
Moisture might come from several sources, such as uncovered soil, foundation walls, foundation vents and more.
Encapsulating your crawl space with quality products engineered for this space is the best way to keep it dry and clean.
