Before & After Photos

In Lawrencetown, NS, a homeowner reached out as their 25-year-old property faced issues with a vented crawl space insulated with old straw. This led to improper insulation and elevated moisture levels. We addressed the problem by removing the inadequate insulation and installed our comprehensive solution: CleanSpace, SilverGlo, SaniDry Sedona, and SmartJack. With CleanSpace encapsulation, SilverGlo wall insulation, and proper humidity control using SaniDry Sedona, we significantly improved air quality and structural stability with SmartJack. This resulted in a dry, energy-efficient crawl space and restored the home’s structural integrity.

In Upper Musquodoboit, the homeowner faced an unstable crawlspace with compromised foundation, joists, and beams. Notice in the before photo the sagging floors and visible water damage due to high humidity levels. Ridgeback Basement Systems expertly addressed these issues using our SmartJack, SaniDry Sedona, and SmartPipe systems. As seen in the after photo, the SmartJack alleviates floor bounce by stabilizing beams, while the SaniDry Sedona controls moisture, preventing mold and dust. Meanwhile, the SmartPipe efficiently manages water drainage, providing a safe and healthy living environment for the home.

Before our team at Ridgeback Basement Systems arrived, the crawl space in this Baddeck, NS home was damp and unusable, as shown in the before photo. The homeowners struggled with moisture and desired a functional storage area. We tackled the problem by installing our CleanSpace® encapsulation system. This durable liner, seen in the after photo, efficiently sealed out moisture, transforming the crawl space into a clean, dry, and usable storage area. Now, this Baddeck home not only has increased protection from moisture issues but also a renewed, storage-ready space.

Before diving into the details of our recent project in Sydney, NS, let's address the challenge: a homeowner's dirty, open crawl space craving protection from the elements. As captured in the before photo, the undefined space clearly called for a remarkable solution. Enter Ridgeback Basement Systems' expertise, armed with our CleanSpace technology. As vividly showcased in the after photo, we transformed this area into a clean, encapsulated, and safeguarded environment. This implementation not only denotes our commitment to delivering a robust solution but ensures a lasting defense against external intrusions, aligning with our mission to uplifting homeowners' peace of mind through formidable, quality service.

Before our intervention, the crawl space in this New Waterford, NS home was uninviting and inefficient, as you can see in the "before" photo. Notice the transformation in the "after" photo, where we applied our CleanSpace technology to meticulously encapsulate the area, accompanied by SilverGlo insulation panels that work together to provide a clean, efficient, and protected environment below the home. Our expertise ensured a lasting solution and an immensely improved home experience for the homeowner.
