A Challenging Multi-Level Dirt Crawl Space, Oxford County

Problem: This multi-level dirt floor crawl space was a challenge successfully met by our crew! The open vents were resulting in cold floors during the winter. In the summer the crawl space was damp and musty; the foul odour affected the entire home.

Solution:  We sealed off the open vents and installed a CleanSpace liner vapour barrier system; which totally encapsulates the crawl space. Our crew also applied moisture-resistant spray foam insulation to help make the home more energy efficient.

Crawl Space Update - Turkey Point, ON

Before

The cottage had an unfinished and uninsulated crawl space which allows moisture, odours and cold air to penetrate the upper living levels. The HVAC system had to work harder to maintain a more comfortable living spaces above.

 

After

Advanced Basement Systems encapsulated the space and added spray foam insulation to the exterior walls and headers. Encapsulating the crawl space will protect the cottage by controlling moisture, preventing mould, structural damage and deterring pests. Insulation will provide temperature control and reduce the energy required to heat/cool the space.

 

Give Advanced Basement Systems a call if you are concerned about your crawl space and how it is affecting the home.

Bowing and Leaking Block Wall - Woodstock, ON

This home in Woodstock, ON had basement seepage and slight bow (buckle or lean) in the block foundation wall. We can use our Carbon Armor Systems to stop the wall from moving any further. The silver vapour barrier is part of the waterproofing system and is not necessary in order to structurally stabilize the wall.
We also installed a new TripleSafe Sump Pump System, replacing the old and unreliable sump.
