Recommended Attic insulation - Hanover, ON
Before
The attic in the home was insulated using 6” fiberglass batt insulation. The R value for this application is approximately R20 while the recommended value for homes in Ontario is R60. The existing forced the home’s HVAC system to work harder and more often to maintain a comfortable living space.
After
Advanced Basement Systems replaced the batt insulation with cellulose blown-in up to a thickness of R60. The result will reduce the energy required to heat/cool the home and meet the recommended levels.

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.
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.
