Advanced Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Problem:  Even with a nice layer of clean gravel, this crawl space still has the effects of a typical unsealed crawl space.

Humid air and water vapour enter a home through the porous foundation, crawl space vents and up from the dirt floor of the crawl space; resulting in a damp crawl space, musty odors and an unhealthy environment throughout the entire home.

Solution: Wow – what a difference!

Our team installed the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier: a super durable 20-mil poly-reinforced liner. Now this clean and dry crawl space is a usable storage area and a healthier environment!

This cold cellar was suffering from excessive moisture, stale air, and poor insulation — a common issue in spaces without proper airflow or sealing. To tackle the problem, we installed a high-performance Zoeller M63 pump with a two-piece airtight lid, helping to eliminate unwanted moisture right at the source.

To improve energy efficiency and prevent condensation, we applied 3 inches of spray foam insulation to the walls and ceiling. Finally, we installed our powerful SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, which now keeps the air fresh, dry, and conditioned year-round.

Why this matters:
Cold cellars with sealed sumps and spray foam insulation must be properly conditioned. Without airflow and humidity control, these spaces can become stagnant and musty. With our system in place, this homeowner now has a clean, dry, and functional cold cellar.

All too often we visit homes damaged by flooding. We understand the frustration of living in a home prone to water intrusion and how it affects the overall enjoyment of the home.

We are the experts of “All Things Basementy” and fix on average 25 homes a week! With our system, homeowners don’t fear the next big storm. They know their basement will stay dry and healthy.

We were pleased to help these homeowners in Point Edward permanently fix their leaky basement. 

These Sarnia homeowners wanted to stop any water from coming into their home through a crack in their foundation. Once they met with our Inspector, Jeff they quickly realized they wanted a usable space for their family to enjoy without having to worry about their personal items being ruined. 

Problem:  These home owners in Sarnia were experiencing a leaky basement. Water was penetrating regularly through the block concrete walls. The air was damp and musty smelling. During the winter months, the basement was very cold.

Solution: We installed our waterproofing system which directs the leaking water away from the walls and floors and into a new drain and upgraded sump pump system. We finished off the walls with our ThermalDry® Basement Radiant Wall Barrier which will improve the basement environment during the cold winter months.
