Advanced Basement Systems Before & After Photos

This crawl space had no perimeter wall insulation nor any humidity control. We encapsulated the dirt floor, isolating the home from the earth. From there, we installed a sump pump and back-up system to capture groundwater from the footing drain. Then, our Sani Dry Air System was placed to take care of conditioning the air. 

Finally, our spray foam crew sealed all outside air leaks with closed cell insulation on the walls and up into the headers. Great job team!

Problem:  This wet crawl space was causing problems for these homeowners in southwestern Ontario. The humid and moist environment caused their traditional fiberglass insulation to fall and become ineffective. Their entire home smelled musty as the odours from the crawl space affected their entire home.

Solution: We sealed off the outside environment which was causing the humid crawl space environment, encapsulating it with our heavy duty CleanSpace® Liner.

For improved comfort and better energy efficiency, we also used Spray Foam Insulation.

What a difference!

The house had an older sump system with small liner, 1/3 HP pump and a battery back-up system. When it rained hard the system could not keep up to the volume of water and resulted in basement flooding.

Advanced Basement Systems installed the Triple Safe System which includes a 1/3 HP primary pump, a ½ HP secondary pump and a battery back-up sump pump should the power go out. The pumps in this system are connected to 2 separate discharge lines to help prevent a single line blockage. This system will provide the coverage needed should the heavy rains come back year over year!

Call Advanced Basement Systems if your sump system is old and needs an update.

Problem: This crawl space needed help! All of the incorrectly installed insulation is falling everywhere. The damp earth is causing wood-rot and energy loss is high.

Solution: We cleaned out all the old insulation and debris. Then, we encapsulated the earth with our CleanSpace product which gives the space a beautiful white finish. At the end, we insulated the walls with spray foam. What a transformation!
