Jill S. called Omni Basement system because they had a nasty crawlspace with a dirt floor. The crawlspace was leaking through the walls and from under the floor. The floor that was made of clay was very wet when we arrived
Phil from Omni Basement Systems designed an affordable plan to encapsulate the crawlspace and dehumidify the air to make a dry comfortable space for storage and to increase the value of the home.
With the Cleanspace product Omni Basement System wrapped the walls and floor and a drainage system called SmartPipe ti drain to the TripleSafe Sump system.
The Crawlspace is now dry, safe and Healthy.
Jim D. called to say that he had a 120 year old farmhouse in Pt. Colborne with a crawlspace. The farmhouse is rented out and the tenants complained about smells coming from the dirt floor crawlspace and the amount of constant dust in the house.
Omni Basement systems came and to do a free inspection. Omni recommended three products as a plan of action.
first job was to encapsulate the crawlspace to separate the dirt floor from the airspace. This is done by installing 20mil thick Cleanspace over the floor and up the walls and wrapping the piers. This works much better than just applying 6mil poly on hte floor which ca can come off easily when crawled. The Cleanspace will never com off the walls or floor because it is mechanically fastened and has cord reinforcement built in. The Cleanspace features a product called ultrafresh built right in which acts as a anti-microbial to eliminate mold growth.
Step Two was to add Sanidry Sedona Dehumidifation sytem to protect the building materials, reduce odours and lower the humidity.
The fianl step was to add supplemental support to the main beam with 3.5" diameter fully gavanized SmartJacks
Our ustomer had a beautiful lakeside home in Turkey Point that they wanted to protect. It had a leaaking problem and sagging floors from humidity.
Omni Basement Systems encapsulated and waterproofed the crawlspace and added addition support to the main beam with SmartJack galvanized house jack system
The first step was to waterproof with Smartpipe drainage system which drans to the SmartSump designed speccifically for crawlspace that have encapsulated.
The next Step was to Encapsulate the Crawlspace using our very own moisture barrier called CleanSpace. Cleanspace is a 20mil thick, 7layer poly which is sealed and fastened permanently against the walls and piers.
Finally we add support to the existing beam using our fully galvanized and adjustable Smartjacks
As per our customer "for the first time in twenty years, I have no Spiders in the upstairs of the house"
Nick in Beamsville had a damp crawlspace with a poor vapor barrier. Omni basement Systems did a repair and added Cleanspace vapor barrier which has a 25 year warranty and is sealed against all walls and pillars. This along with vent covers, will dry the air in the crawlspace, protecting the wood framing above.
Mike has a house with an addition. The Addition has a dirt floor crawlspace that was not insulated. Omni Basement Systems added SilverGlow Insulation and a vapour barrier called Cleanspace. The Cleanspace is made of 20mil thick poly and it is 7 layers in total. There is a layer called Ultrafresh that is anti-microbial which will deter mold growth.
