Protecting a Basement with CleanSpace & Foamax in Greenbank, Ontario

Challenge

In Greenbank, Ontario, a homeowner was facing persistent problems in his basement every time it rained. Water would accumulate in his basement, rendering the space unusable and threatening the structural integrity of his home. Dissatisfied with the temporary solutions he had tried over the years, he decided to contact Basement Systems Toronto. Once the homeowner contacted our customer service specialist, we quickly scheduled an inspection. Our system design specialist visited the site and conducted a thorough assessment. We identified excess moisture, a common problem that often leads to mold growth, wood rot, and long-term structural issues. Our diagnosis revealed that this problem was due to a combination of inadequate drainage and a general inability to keep soil moisture at bay. We proposed a reliable solution using CleanSpace products.

Solution

First, we installed our CleanSpace membrane, which is specially designed to combat moisture more effectively than standard materials. Combined with our drainage mat, this system ensures optimal moisture control by directing any water infiltration to an installed drainage system. To further protect and insulate the space, we added Foamax wall panels, a rigid closed-cell insulation that resists moisture and improves the energy efficiency of the basement. A dedicated production team handled the installation. They expertly placed the drainage mat to improve water flow, sealed the membrane joints with CleanSpace tape for maximum durability, and precisely adjusted the Foamax panels to create a clean, finished look. This installation has not only solved the problem of water accumulation, but has also improved comfort, insulation, and air quality, giving the owner a usable and healthier basement. With our precise techniques and high-quality products, water infiltration issues are now a distant memory for the Greenbank homeowner. The success of this project embodies Basement systems Toronto mission to provide not only a quick solution, but also one that is reliable and long-lasting. This commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction is at the heart of every project we undertake.
