Ms. Tremblay contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, because a strong odor of humidity emanated from her basement. There was several water seepage, mold and its sump pump system was not sufficient to remove all the water. All of these factors caused this unpleasant smell of dampness.
Our client wanted a complete and permanent solution to her problem. And for that, our experts installed a WaterGuard interior drain which is connected to a second SmartPump sump pump system. In this way, the water ends up in the WaterGuard and the latter will direct it to the Smart Pump. Then they laid a drainage mat on the gravel floor. Its function is to direct the surface water towards the sump pump. They added the TerraBlock insulation sheets to the drainage mat in order to insulate the floor of the house and allow for some comfort when moving. Finally, they applied our CleanSpace coating on top of the TerraBlock. The three combined (Drainage Mat, TerraBlock and CleanSpace) form a perfect trio for insulating and waterproofing the basement.
A homeowner in the Orford, QC was dealing with excess humidity in their crawl space. Our system design specialist conducted a thorough evaluation, pinpointing the root causes of the humidity. He recommended : SmartJack for stabilizing the space, SilverGlo to insulate and create an energy-efficient thermal barrier, and CleanSpace, a moisture barrier, to secure against excess humidity. Not only did we eliminate the excessive humidity, but we also restored the homeowner's peace of mind, assuring them of a durable solution that wards off future moisture issues.
The encapsulation of your crawl space is a clever choice for the whole house. Once you can feel that the walls are cold, the air in the place is humid and you can see water leakage, you need to contact specialists such as our company that can help you solve these problems.
We have encapsulated this house in Louiseville, Qc.
Our team has started by installing the SmartSump system; this system is specifically designed for crawl spaces to help reduce moisture, remove water and prevent flooding.
Then the walls have been coated with the CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane, which blocks water vapor and redirects it to the drain.
Afterwards we added our SilverGlo panels that provide also a vapor barrier on your crawl space walls, holding back the moisture and humidity.
Finally, to keep the humidity level at 55% or lower, we have installed our SaniDry CX dehumidifier and air purifier that keeps the air dry and the environment healthy.
This space can now be conveniently and safely used. We are happy to have been able to carry out this project!
Our client Mr. Michaud needed to renovate his parent’s house in Louiseville. His parents had complained of a mold smell on the main floor of the house and the cold floors. He contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec for a quick and above all permanent solution.
So we suggested the insulation of the walls with our SilverGlo insulation panels, install our SmartSump sump pump system, lay a drainage mat on the floor so that the water on the surface can be directed to the sump pump system and then lay over our designed crawl space liner, the CleanSpace. It is used to isolate the house from the earth which is in the crawl space. It is also composed of antimicrobials and gives a clear and clean appearance to the crawl space. Finally, our Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier was installed. It is quite simply the best and the most efficient.
Mr. Michaud was very happy with the solutions we provided and will no longer have to worry about humidity and mold odors in his parent’s place.

Our team installed a CleanSpace liner to encapsulate the crawl space and prevent moisture from entering the home, in addition to a SmartSump system that is specifically designed for crawl spaces to help reduce moisture, remove water and prevent flooding.
