Before & After Photos

Problem: Cold floors, rotting wood and mold were issues in this home. Outside moisture getting in was the cause.

Solution: Now that the CleanSpace liner has been installed the house is isolated from the earth, which creates a healthy, dry enviroment.

Challenge: These homeowners’ crawl space was always damp and humid, creating musty smells in the home. 

Solution: This home is in a low-lying area with a high water table. Here’s what we did:

We levelled the uneven ground and installed drainage matting which helps move water into the newly installed crawl space sump pump, the SmartSump™. To seal the crawl space from the ground and the outside environment, we installed our super heavy-duty vapour barrier and sealed to the exterior walls with spray foam insulation. The last part of the repair is installing vent covers and sealing the crawl space access. 

What a transformation!

Problem: This home had sagging floors and high humidity due to an exposed dirt floor.

Solution: Install a vapor barrier (CleanSpace) to isolate the home from the earth. Dig and pour new concrete footings and install steel support posts (jacks) that can be adjusted over time to lift the home back up. Install a high-performance dehumidifier.

Problem: This tight, uncomfortable and ugly access adds no value or practicality to the home.  

Solution: Install a well (steel or vinyl) with a removable vinyl door. This is the EverLast Door. Only doors below grade need a well.

Problem:  This home had a crawl space that was damp and musty. This undesirable crawl space air makes its way throughout the entire house in what’s known as the Stack Effect. The moist environment caused the fiberglass insulation to become ineffectual and saturated with water. These homeowners also needed some help with debris removal.

Solution: We encapsulated the damp dirt floor with our heavy duty CleanSpace crawl space vapour barrier liner (strong enough to walk on and store items upon!). Our team also added mould and mildew proof SprayFoam Insulation (inorganic; therefore, mould and mildew resistant) to help the home be more energy efficient.
