This project was all about making the crawl space drier, healthier, and more comfortable. We installed a dehumidifier and air purification system to help control humidity and reduce damp conditions that can lead to mould and musty odors. The system drains safely into the existing plumbing and is supported on a stand for proper performance.
All wood surfaces were treated to help prevent mould growth, and the old fiberglass insulation along the exterior rim joist and wall framing was removed and disposed of. New wall insulation was installed and carefully sealed to reduce drafts and improve energy efficiency.
In the end, the crawl space is now cleaner, drier, and better insulated, helping protect the home and giving the homeowners greater comfort and peace of mind.
Before and After of a Waterguard Installation in Chilliwack BC.
This project involved rebuilding two window wells to improve drainage and protect the foundation. The existing window well materials were removed and properly disposed of. Excess soil and debris were cleared to create a six-inch clearance below each window, and clean stone was added to help water drain away efficiently.
New window wells were then built using treated lumber for durability. A drainage mat was installed along the exterior of each window well to guide water away from the foundation, with the top edge neatly finished using a mould strip. Finally, the areas were backfilled with the existing soil, leaving both window wells clean, stable, and well-protected.
This project focused on rebuilding the window well to improve drainage and protect the foundation. The old window well materials were removed and properly disposed of. Excess soil and debris were cleared to create six inches of space below the window, and clean stone was added to help water drain away properly.
A new window well was built using treated lumber for long-lasting durability. A drainage mat was installed along the exterior to guide water away from the foundation and finished neatly with a mould strip at the top edge. Finally, the area was backfilled with the existing soil, leaving a clean and secure finish around the window.
This project involved replacing three window wells to improve drainage and protect the foundation. The old window well materials were removed and properly disposed of. Excess soil and debris were cleared to provide six inches of clearance below each window, and clean stone was added to help water drain away effectively.
New window wells were built using treated lumber for strength and durability. A drainage mat was installed along the exterior of each well to guide water away from the foundation, with the top edge neatly finished using a mould strip. The areas were then backfilled with the existing soil for a clean, secure finish.
To complete the upgrade, custom-made aluminum grills were installed over the window wells, adding protection while maintaining airflow and safety.
