Basement Systems of Vancouver helped this Surrey home owner make their home more comfortable and safe by encapsulating their crawlspace with Cleanspace and by insulating the walls with Silverglo
For this project, we focused on improving the health and safety of the crawl space and addressing a foundation issue. We treated the affected areas to eliminate mold, cleaned surfaces, and removed debris in half of the crawl space. To help control humidity, we installed a dehumidifier and air purifier. Finally, we repaired a foundation crack using a strong sealing method to prevent future leaks and reinforce the structure.
This project focused on replacing the existing window well grate with a new aluminum grate designed to properly cover and protect the opening.
The new grate provides a strong, secure cover while still allowing light and airflow around the basement window. The finished installation gives the window well a cleaner appearance and helps create a safer area around the home.
This project focused on improving air quality and moisture control in the crawl space. A dehumidifier and air purification system was installed to help monitor and reduce humidity levels, using the existing electrical outlet and condensate pump for proper drainage. The system helps prevent mould, odors, and excess moisture buildup. A stand was also installed to securely support the unit, ensuring reliable performance and easier maintenance.
As a returning customer, this project focused on further improving and protecting the crawl space. We installed a full encapsulation system and sealed it securely around the footings, piers, and up the foundation walls to help block moisture and outside air. A drainage layer was added beneath the liner and extended up the walls to manage ground seepage and create a durable surface.
All wood surfaces were treated to help prevent mould growth and keep the space healthy. A dehumidifier and air purification system was installed to control humidity levels, draining directly into the existing sump system. The unit was properly supported on a stand for reliable performance.
To complete the upgrade, insulation was added in the rim joist area to reduce drafts and improve energy efficiency, and wire mesh was installed where needed to help prevent rodent entry.
These improvements help keep the crawl space dry, insulated, and well-protected—providing long-term comfort and peace of mind.
