This dirt crawl space in Goderich, ON was in need of some help! Our team was able to encapsulate, insulate, dehumidify and clean up this space. It's now dry and clean, helping this entire home to be more healthy in the air its owners breathe.

We also installed DC315 thermal barrier over the spray foam, which gives the foam that bright white look. 

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 crawl space needed new support columns, an encapsulation system and a new access. The floors were saggy and the crawl space itself was in awful condition.

Solution: Install new supports to hold up the floors in the home. Put a sump pump in to relieve hydrostatic pressure beneath the ground and install a Turtl (crawl space access- see Photo Gallery). We cleaned out all organic material and the old insulation and encapsulated with our 20mm Clean Space.

Before

The owners found a crack in the poured concrete basement wall, which is a common occurrence. It does not pose as a structural issue but often times will lead to water leaks into the basement, causing a wet floor.  

After

Advanced Basement Systems installed their crack repair system called Flexispan. The system includes a urethane sealant in the crack, a drywell under the crack to drain the water and a polyurethane sealant on the wall to prevent water from leaking through. The entire system is flexible and will move with the wall as it moves over time during freeze / thaw cycles.
