Before & After Photos

A dirty and wet crawl space affects your entire home! As the air of a house moves from below to above, it is necessary to treat the problem at its source ... the crawl space. Encapsulating the area is a good thing for your home and your health! That's what our client in Gatineau is doing. Our specialist therefore recommended the best encapsulation products: CleanSpace, Delta MS, TerraBlock, SmartSump and SaniDry Sedona.

The residents of this house in Gatineau suffered from a very high level of humidity, caused by a non-isolated crawl space.

They have also noticed that the floor was sagging which caused them a deep concern.

As you can see in this picture, we have totally encapsulated the crawl space and the foundation.

This client had cracks repaired in one wall of his block foundation, but had not repaired all of the walls. Over time, one of the walls will start to arch and tilt inward from the basement. If nothing will be done, the situation will only get worse. So, he contacted Systèmes sous-sol Québec in order to stabilize his wall once and for all!

The crawl space was damp and very poorly insulated. The floor were sagging and needed support.

Solution:

•Installation of the SilverGlo to enclose the air outside the house

• Application of an urethane foam to insulate the crawl space

• Installation of a drainage membrane and a CleanSpace to isolate the house from the earth and make the crawl space cleaner.

• Installation of a SmartJack to support the house.

One of the most common complaints of old-house owners is sagging floors.

This is the case of our client in Gatineau who called us to repair his crawl space after many failure attempts to fix this problem.

Furthermore we have installed our companies’ SmartJack Support Pillars which are steel support systems used to stabilized and level the girders and floor joists in a crawl space, in addition to our companies’ CleanSpace liner to keep moisture from entering the area through the dirt floor.
