Before & After Photos

Problem: The home had a high moisture content in the crawl space. The exposed earth allowed year-round humidity to cause severe damage to the wood beam.

Solution: Install new support columns to hold up the reinforced beam, along with the Clean Space vapour barrier to seal off the home from the earth and finally a high-performance dehumidifier to allow the space to be conditioned and healthy.

Problem: These Dutton homeowner had a major leak during the wet Spring months that resulted in their entire basement flooding.

Solution: We installed a perimeter drain in the floor along the problem basement walls. We also installed the ThermalDry® Wall system as well as our TripleSafe Sump pump system to ensure these homeowners a peace of mind come the following Spring.

Problem:  This home had a problem with flooding in the crawl space, creating wet, undesirable environment

Solution: An important element of a dry crawl space is a reliable sump pump system. Without one, a crawl space will still be vulnerable to groundwater, as well as unnoticed plumbing leaks. Our SmartSump system is designed for crawl spaces.

Problem:  This wet crawl space was causing problems for these homeowners in southwestern Ontario. The humid and moist environment caused their traditional fiberglass insulation to fall and become ineffective. Their entire home smelled musty as the odours from the crawl space affected their entire home.

Solution: We sealed off the outside environment which was causing the humid crawl space environment, encapsulating it with our heavy duty CleanSpace® Liner.

For improved comfort and better energy efficiency, we also used Spray Foam Insulation.

What a difference!
