Installed a Super Sump System with Battery Backup + Ice guard & a perimeter Drain tile. Drain Mat & Clean Space on the floor Rigid Insulation on the walls
Crawlspace would flood with a high humidity level.
We added a drainage system to control the water with a sump pump and a battery backup pump.
After the drainage system was added, we did a vapour barrier system and insulation to control the humidity level.
Stopping Leaks and Strengthening the Foundation in Pitt Meadows, BC
To stop water from coming through a foundation crack, we injected it with a high-pressure polyurethane resin. This creates a flexible seal that moves with the foundation and keeps water out. Then, we reinforced the area with a strong carbon fiber weave and epoxy to add long-lasting structural support.
Keeping Moisture Out in Pitt Meadows, BC
In this project, we started by sealing up some foundation cracks to prevent water from getting into the home. After making sure the area was clean and smooth, we tested it from the outside with water to confirm everything was sealed properly. We also cleaned the space thoroughly, removing debris and vacuuming it.
Next, we installed a new drainage system under the concrete floor. We dug a trench, placed a pipe to carry water away from the home, and then poured new concrete to close it back up, leaving the area neat and secure.
We also installed a new pump system to help remove any water that might collect under the home. It includes an alarm to alert the homeowner of high water levels.
To wrap up the job, we sealed the crawl space with a heavy-duty moisture barrier, going partway up the walls. This helps control humidity, improves air quality inside the home, and protects the overall structure.
Crawl Space Makeover: New Drainage, Insulation & Foundation
What have we done in this house?
-The galvanized mesh was laid on the crawl space dirt floor with a coating of concrete to prevent rodents from tunneling into the crawlspace.
-Insulation to help keep the house warmer.
-Cleanspace vapor barrier was installed to help with the musty smell and to help control a highly humid crawlspace.
-Drain Mat was installed to help protect the vapor barrier. It will also allow water to pass under the liner
Stronger Support for a Stable Crawl Space
We reinforced the crawl space by installing a steel support system designed to stabilize the floor joists and beams. This included adding a solid steel base on the concrete footing, a steel beam for extra strength, and a joist stabilizer to keep everything secure and level.
