Kim has a small crawlspace in her Fonthill home. The dirt floor crawlspace is smelly and emits moisture. Omni Basement Systems installed a vapor barrier to encapsulate the crawlspace. Three layers were used. First a drainage matting to protect the vapor barrier, then a layer of floor insulation to cut down on the condensation and save energy, and lastly Cleanspace vapor barrier is mechanically fastened and sealed to prevent moisture from coming up from the dirt floor. Kim was very impressed about how great her crawlspace looks and feels.
Sandy in Welland, On needed some repair to correct dampness issues. These include sagging floors and other moisture damage. Omni Basement Systems suggested and installed a vapor barrier called Cleanspace. Cleanspace is a 20mil thick liner that has cord reinforcement and a product called Ultrafresh that inhibits mold growth. Omni also installed house jacks called Smartjacks (not shown) these jacks sits on a very large footing that is galvanized for rust proofing
Larry B. in Welland, ON has a house with a nasty crawlspace. Despite efforts to insulate and encapsulate himself, the crawlspace was still cold and damp. This caused problems with the floor joists sagging and cold floors upstairs. Omni Basement Systems recommended a 3 part system for Larry. Add supplemental beam and Smartjacks to fix the sagging floors, Silverglo Insulation on the walls to keep the crawlspace and floors warm and finally, encapsulate the crawlspace with Cleanspace membrane. Cleanspace is 20mil thick liner with cord reinforcing and antimicrobial product built right in. Cleanspace is mechanically fasten so it will never come off.
