Moisture Out, Comfort In: Crawl Space Upgrade

For this project, we focused on creating a cleaner, healthier, and more comfortable crawl space. We fully sealed the area to block out moisture and protect against future water seepage. The floor was prepared with a durable barrier that not only prevents dampness but also makes the space easier to use for storage.

 

We repaired a small opening in the concrete before sealing everything in, ensuring a smooth and solid foundation. To keep the air fresh and dry, we installed a dehumidifier system with its own drainage setup, helping to control humidity year-round.

 

All wood and organic surfaces were treated to stop mould growth, and the rim joists were insulated and sealed to improve energy efficiency while keeping outside air from leaking in.

 

Overall, the work gives the crawl space lasting protection, cleaner air, and a more usable environment for the home.

Drainage, mould, and structural fixes all in one crawl space project

We completed a full crawl space repair to address moisture, drainage, and structural concerns. A sump pump system with a battery backup was installed to manage groundwater and prevent flooding, even during power outages. The entire space was encapsulated and sealed with drainage matting to protect against seepage and improve durability. We removed debris and old insulation and treated all surfaces for mold. A dehumidifier was installed to control humidity, and new moisture-resistant insulation was added to boost energy efficiency. Structurally, we stabilized floor joists with a steel jack system and replaced a 10-foot section of rotten sill plate and rim joist, supporting the area with a steel I-beam and new framing. We also redirected exterior water flow to a catch basin to keep the area dry. The result is a clean, dry, and stable space ready to protect the home for years.

Crawlspace & Waterproofing in Surrey

Addressing the rotten structure required replacing all damaged wood and redirecting the rain leader away from the house, as it was the main cause of the damage. Additionally, we replaced the old, malodorous fiberglass insulation with new silver airboard insulation.

Floor Support and Framing Repair in Surrey, BC

In this project, we worked on strengthening and leveling the floor structure. We carefully raised the floor joist using a steel beam and adjustable supports to make space for a new base. We then installed a protective layer and a solid treated wood base, securely anchored to the foundation. After that, new wall studs were added at regular intervals to ensure everything was properly supported and built to last.
