Crawl space encapsulation in Coldwater, Ontario

Challenge

A homeowner in Coldwater, ON, reached out to us after noticing a persistent musty odor and high humidity coming from their crawl space. Upon inspection, our specialist found significant moisture accumulation beneath the home. The damp environment had begun promoting mold growth and was starting to impact the overall air quality inside the house. Without proper drainage or a vapor barrier, the crawl space was vulnerable to ongoing water intrusion and structural deterioration. The homeowner needed a permanent solution to eliminate moisture and prevent future damage.

Solution

To address the problem, our team recommended a complete crawl space encapsulation using the CleanSpace Encapsulation System, CleanSpace Drainage Matting, and the SmartDrain Crawl Space Drainage System. The area was first cleaned and prepared to ensure optimal installation conditions. We laid down the drainage matting to direct any groundwater toward the SmartDrain system, which captures and channels leaks away from the home while alerting the homeowner to potential plumbing issues. The CleanSpace liner was then installed to seal the space from moisture and humidity, creating a clean, healthy environment. After the installation, the crawl space was completely dry and protected, eliminating musty odors and improving air quality throughout the home. The homeowner was relieved to have a long-term solution that safeguards both comfort and structural integrity.
