Basement Waterproofing Case Studies: Cold Room Waterproofing in Newmarket, ON
Challenge
Customers in Newmarket, ON, had a musty, unusable cold room that had the potential to be an excellent storage area. However, before they began storing their items away, they called Clarke Basement Systems to see what we could do to help keep their things from getting damaged from moisture or a potential leak. System Design Specialist Chris Luke created a solution for the cold room after he used his expertise to inspect the room and gave the customers a free quote.
Solution
Installation Foreman Dustin Biggs started with our cold room encapsulation system with white vinyl roofing along the walls. Dustin placed a foam insulator underneath to help control temperatures and moisture levels. Next, he placed a SmartSump® system that will effectively drain any water seepage from the area and out of the home. When he and his crew finished, our customers were amazed by the finished look and were glad they could now put the room to use without fearing water damaging their things.
