Crawl Space Encapsulation in Saint-Faustin-Lac-Carré
Crawl space encapsulation in Montreal, Laval, and throughout Quebec. Prevent humidity and improve indoor air quality with our professional crawl space encapsulation service. We offer durable and effective solutions tailored to your home
In Quebec, many homes and cottages are built on crawl spaces, which makes moisture problems common and can cause structural issues. A crawl space under a house can pose a health problem for homeowners as well as a risk to the structure of the house.
Mold naturally found in the soil makes the crawl space or service cellar an important access point for these molds. It generally spreads through the release of spores into the air, which can cause health problems such as allergies, respiratory infections, and skin irritations.
The solution:
- Our PRO Vapor Barrier System is the solution for crawl spaces. It is made from a robust 20-mil thick material consisting of multiple layers of high-density polyethylene and two layers of reinforced cords. The vapor barrier is a waterproof and moisture-resistant material that is installed on the floor of the crawl space to prevent moisture from entering the house. It creates a waterproof barrier between the ground and the indoor air of the house, thus reducing the risk of mold and protecting the house's structures from moisture damage.
- If your crawl space has water infiltration, it is also necessary to install a drainage system and a sump pump to manage these infiltrations and keep the water table level lower. Contact us today to learn more about our range of products and our professional installation service.
- Dehumidify your crawl space more efficiently than ever before with the Aprilaire dehumidifier. By eliminating excess moisture and maintaining relative humidity below 55%, it is the ideal solution for controlling moisture throughout your basement or crawl space while helping to maintain a healthy living environment and improve air quality. With our automatic drainage system, you can remove up to 9 gallons of water per day with minimal energy consumption, without having to manually empty the device.
- Before we begin installing our products, we collect all wood or organic materials in contact with the ground, as well as debris and residue on the ground, to ensure that the source of organic nutrients that promote mold growth is eliminated. Then, in the case of mold-contaminated surfaces, we clean them with appropriate products.
Why Repair a Crawl Space?
If you neglect to repair and inspect your home's crawl space, you risk encountering many problems that can harm the building's structure and the health of its occupants if it is damaged or poorly maintained. A well-maintained crawl space helps maintain good indoor air quality, prevent mold, fungi, and rot, prevent moisture problems, avoid exposure to underground gases, and maintain the structural stability of the house. In addition, a well-maintained crawl space can help improve the energy efficiency of the house, reduce heating and cooling costs, and improve indoor comfort.
