Photo Album: Add vapor barrier and sump system in a crawlspace in Burlington, ON

Colin in Burlington, ON has a home with a crawlspace addition. This is quite common when adding space to an existing home. The floor of the crawlspace is dirt which will contribute to moisture trapped below the floor. The moisture will wreak havoc with the wood floor joists and sub floor of the home. It is usually quite smelly. Omni Basement Systems add a 2 part vapor barrier called CLeanspace and a sump pump system to collect and expel any water from the room.Cleanspace is a 20 mil thick, 7 layer poly that goes over the entire floor of the crawlspace and gets fastened and sealed to the walls. When this is done, Colin will have useable storage space without the worry of the stored items getting moldy.
