Before & After

Ian has a house in Hamilton, On that needed an interior waterproofing job. Omni Basement Systems recommended an interior drainage system with the a sump system. For the walls, Omni installed Delta brand wall membrane.
Tristen in Hamilton, On had a crawlspace with lots of moisture issues. The joists were sagging and there was mold growing on them.
This was caused by a bare dirt crawlspace floor that was constantly releasing moisture into the air envelope of the crawlspace. Old way of thinking was to to simply vent the crawlspace to "air it out". After years and tears of studies, this was found to be untrue. The best way to prevent the moisture is to seal the ground from the air envelope. Make this space a part of the home. Now the air can be dehumidified and storage space can be gained. Because of the damage that was already done to the floor joists above, a Supplemental Beam and SmartJacks from Supportworks were installed. Voila, the crawlspace has been transformed.
Barry F. has an older home in lower Hamilton and the foundation is a combination of block and stone. Omni Basement Systems did some waterproofing a few years ago and now another area that was not waterproofed has started to leak with the heavy rains that we have been experiencing. Especially the add-on addition at the back of the property that was blocked. Typically the additions of these old houses do not have any drainage around the perimeter. Omni Basement systems added an internal drainage system with the patented WaterGuard and also used the Cleanspace wall system.
Angel just bought a house in Hamilton, ON to discover the crawlspace was a mess. It had a bed mattress stored inside and the earth moisture made it a hazard for her son.
Omni Basement systems cleaned out the debris on the ground and encapsulated the crawspace with Cleanspace liner. Cleanspace acts as a vapor barrier to separate the earth from the airspace.
Stephani H. needed some interior waterproofing. Omni Basement Systems installed an interior waterproofing system that included the SuperSump Plus sump pump system.
