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 home was built using concrete block foundation walls with a concrete floor. Overtime the walls developed seepage and water accumulated along the floor. The water created a condition perfect for mould growth and wood rot.
After:
Advanced Basement Systems installed their drainage system call Waterguard and a Vapour Barrier membrane to collect the seepage and divert it into Waterguard. The complete system should include drainage, wall (vapour) barrier, sump pump and dehumidifier to manage the situation. Advanced Basement Systems installs inspection ports into the drainage which allows regular servicing.
Give Advanced Basement Systems a call should you have issues in your basement!

Give Advanced Basement Systems a call and let the professionals handle the job!
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.
Problem: This home had a problem with flooding in the crawl space, creating wet, undesirable environment
Solution: An important element of a dry crawl space is a reliable sump pump system. Without one, a crawl space will still be vulnerable to groundwater, as well as unnoticed plumbing leaks. Our SmartSump system is designed for crawl spaces.
