The century home was constructed using stone and mortar for the foundation. During this period of building, basement waterproofing was not overly present. There are several cracks, seepage and spots for moisture to enter. The relative humidity (RH) was at 64% which is perfect for mould growth and wood rot.
Advanced Basement Systems was called to inspect and provide a solution to dry the space out. The best course of action was to fully encapsulate the area with the Cleanspace encapsulation system and then apply spray foam to the walls to seal them. A new sump pump system was added to help control the water from around the foundation walls and the final step was to include a dehumidifier that would dry the area and maintain it.
