Basement Waterproofing Case Studies: Waterproofing and Mould Control in Wasaga Beach, ON
Challenge
In Wasaga Beach, ON, a 92-year-old mother-in-law had a leaky basement with mould everywhere. Due to the mould and constant dampness, our customer’s mother-in-law had health complications that were getting worse and worse. Steve, from Wasaga, was highly concerned for her health and called us to see how quickly we could help his mother-in-law.
Solution
System Design Specialist Rob Malcomson designed a well-suited solution to protect the home from mould growth and dampness. After the mould was removed by a restoration company, Installation Foreman Jose Martinez and his crew got to work to effectively waterproof the home. Our sub-floor perimeter drainage system was placed around the basement to ensure proper drainage. Next, they encapsulated the area with our CleanSpace® wall membrane that will keep all water vapour from getting into the home and causing further mould. Lastly, they placed our M53 sump pump.
When the crew finished the work, Steve and his mother-in-law were highly thankful for the work done by Clarke Basement Systems from start to finish. They can now be at ease knowing mould will no longer impact the mother's health.
