Basement Systems Vancouver Before & After Photos

We transformed the crawl space into a clean, dry, and healthy area. First, we sealed off the entire space to keep out moisture from the ground and walls, making sure everything was properly fastened and airtight. To help with drainage and add durability, we laid down a protective layer beneath the liner. We also took care of rodent prevention by sealing up the overhangs with wire mesh and insulating the areas to keep the space warmer. The entire crawl space was thoroughly cleaned, old insulation was removed, rodent droppings were hepa vacuumed, and all surfaces were treated for mould and bacteria. We wiped down heating ducts, sewer lines, and got rid of spider webs to leave everything fresh. To keep the space dry long-term, we installed a dehumidifier that helps control humidity levels. Lastly, we added high-quality insulation to the walls and rim joists, sealing up all the seams to boost energy efficiency and ensure the space stays in great shape moving forward.

The client was looking to have some or all of my crawlspace thoroughly cleaned and set up for a more accessible arrangement of storage shelves.

The daycare facility experienced a water leakage issue, prompting the implementation of effective measures. Trench work was undertaken to divert and contain the water, complemented by the installation of a sump pump to efficiently eliminate excess water and ensure a dry and secure environment.

To create a cleaner, drier, and more energy-efficient crawl space, we’ll begin by removing debris and installing a durable encapsulation system. The liner will securely seal around footings, piers, and foundation walls. If insulation is present, the liner will extend slightly over it for a tight seal. A drainage mat will be added to manage moisture and improve durability. Insulated wall panels will be installed with sealed seams to prevent moisture and odors. Lastly, we’ll spread drain rock for added protection and install wire mesh over openings.

A damp crawl space can lead to musty odors, mould, and even structural issues. That’s why we fully seal and protect the area by securely fastening and air-sealing a durable moisture barrier at footings, piers, and foundation walls. If insulation is present, the barrier extends 6” in front of it for complete coverage.

To further protect your home, we add a drainage layer beneath the barrier, extending slightly up the exterior walls. This prevents ground seepage, improves durability, and creates a cleaner, healthier space & perfect for storage and peace of mind.
