Kinmount, ON's Premier Basement Waterproofing Contractor

This home had major structural issues to the point of it potentially collapsing in itself. Upon renovations to get this house on the market, the homeowners realized that the foundation was buckling upon excavating the perimeter. The contractor used at the job did not have the skill set to complete foundation support and needed a lending hand to help fix this house once and for all. By googling "foundation support", Clarke Basement Systems popped up at the top of their search page. Inquiring about the work needed, we managed to send out Chris Luke, our experienced System Design Specialist, to the home for a detailed analysis. With the peropty already being excavated, Chris knew exactly what would need to be done and how long it will take. After the quote was done it was time to review what products would be needed. He quoted our GeoLock® wall anchor support system, ardour PowerBraces. Our GeoLock® system uses plated that support the inner wall, and a metal rod attached to an anchor in the lawn outside. Once the rod is tightened and the slack is eliminated, the two pieces come closer together and straighten out the wall. As for the PowerBraces, these bad boys run floor to ceiling and essentially keep the wall from caving itself. It is mounted to the floor and the beam above to keep it in place and not move at all. With these materials in check, this house is going to be 100% safe. 

This tight crawl space in Kinmount, Ontario needed to be encapsulated ASAP. The crawl space started to smell funny, similar to dirty laundry, which disrupted the owner's breathing air. During hot days, they tend to use a lot of air conditioning to get some sort of cool temperature and vice versa in the colder months. With not that much knowledge of crawl space encapsulations, the owners were very confused as to what was going on. With some research, we came up at the top of their search page with basement encapsulation in Kinmount. We had our experienced System Design Specialist, Chris Luke arrive at the home to take a look at the space. He noticed that it was neglected because it was such a tight squeeze but with Chris' years of experience, it was easy to navigate through and see what was going on. The crawl space was not encapsulated and needed our products to make sure the owners are saving money on heating and cooling bills. Chris recommended our CleanSpace® wall membrane which would keep all the moisture at bay. To insulate the space, our thermal dry membrane would have to be attached to the walls and floor to ensure that it doesn't affect the temperatures of the home. The owners were thrilled with the knowledge Chris brought to the table and would love to pursue business with us. 

This crawl space in Kinmount, Ontario, had a crawlspace that brought in unwanted moisture on wet days and had significant structural issues. The humidity in the basement leads to a musty/moldy smell throughout the cottage and really disrupted the owner's everyday breathing air. As for the structural integrity, the beams holding up the living floor were sagging due to age and the moisture in the basement. The cottage owner looked up structural and waterproofing in Kinmount, and we popped up at the top of his search. After inquiring about the crawl space being looked at, our experienced System Design Specialist, Chris Luke, arrived at the home to begin his estimate. He quite literally crawled into the crawl space to see where the smell was coming from and why the floor was sagging. Upon crawling in, he noticed that the beam running across in the living room was cracking from the moisture in the space. The moisture was coming from the area's back corner, inviting water in. After the quote was done, Chris concluded that our Clean Space® would seal up any moisture coming into the space. Then he recommended we use our SmartSump to suck up all the water that would end up in the area and redirect it away from home. As for the beam in the room, we would use our SmartJack® push pier system to lift the beam to its original state. The job would take one full business day to complete, and this crawl space would be structurally improved and dry!
