Crawl Space Repair Case Studies: Cottage Built on Bedrock Needs Waterproofing in Kilworthy, ON
Challenge
A cottage owner was noticing some water seepage, along with an odour coming from her crawl space. A System Design Specialist created a well-suited solution for this cottage to effectively waterproof it and prevent moisture damage in the future.
Solution
The suggested solution started with our CleanSpace® Encapsulation system. This will give a barrier to moisture that builds on bedrock, and keep the dampness, or water seepage outside. Beneath the CleanSpace®, a drainage matting was set to drain water seepage down and out of the cottage. Finally, the SaniDry® was a highly recommended product for this crawl space as it will keep your crawl space below 55% relative humidity, so mould does not stand a chance in your basement!
