Comprehensive Crawl Space Protection and Moisture Prevention in Claremont, ON

Challenge

In Claremont, the homeowner was dealing with persistent moisture and mold issues in their crawl space, compromising the structure of their home and indoor air quality. Standing water and excessive moisture promoted mold, mildew, and musty odors, while threatening insulation and wood joists. This situation could lead to long-term deterioration of the foundation, increased energy costs, and an unhealthy indoor environment, requiring a durable and reliable solution to protect the basement and the well-being of the occupants.

Solution

To solve these problems, our team at Basement Systems Toronto implemented a comprehensive encapsulation and moisture management system: the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System was installed as a waterproof vapor barrier, preventing water and moisture from entering the crawl space. We added Drainage Matting to channel water naturally to secure drainage points and prevent accumulation. The walls and beams were sealed to prevent air and moisture infiltration, while ventilation and mold prevention measures ensure that the crawl space remains dry, healthy, and energy efficient. The result: a clean, dry, mold-protected basement with improved air quality, energy efficiency, and structural durability, ensuring long-term protection of the home from water damage.
