Crawl Space Encapsulation in L'Ange-Gardien, Québec

In L'Ange-Gardien, a homeowner was dealing with persistent moisture infiltration in their crawl space—a condition prone to compromising both structural integrity and indoor air quality. Recognizing the urgent need for remediation, our team employed the advanced CleanSpace encapsulation system, a comprehensive solution engineered to create a durable, moisture-impermeable barrier. This system features a 20-mil, antimicrobial-treated vapor barrier liner, meticulously sealed along all walls, piers, and penetrations, effectively mitigating vapor transmission from the soil.

Basement Renovations in Cazaville, QC

PROBLEM

There was an unfinished part within the basement, resembling a crawlspace, was excessive humidity with uncomfortable odors. We identified several mold spots, as well as efflorescence. 

 

SOLUTION

1) Encapsulation of the problematic area to eliminate harmful moisture and the installation of a sump pump.

CleanSpace system: It involves covering the floor and walls with a drainage membrane and a vapor barrier above. The drainage membrane has a dimpled surface that helps transport infiltrated water to the sump pump. The vapor barrier prevents the evaporation of infiltrated water, thus eliminating excessive humidity. This barrier also includes an antimicrobial additive, preventing mold growth.

Installing SuperSump sump pump system. This system features a 1/3 HP Zoeller pump, a pump liner, a cover, a sealed sump basin, and a WaterWatch alarm to prevent any potential disasters.
