Spray Foam Insulation in Central Saanich.

Cleanspace and spray foam: This Qualicum Beach conditioned crawlspace used to be a passively vented, damp, and moldy crawlspace. Nice and clean now!

Why choose spray foam for your Saanich crawl space insulation?

Island Basement Systems's Crawl Space Wall Insulation will make the rest of your home more efficient and comfortable. We offer spray foam insulation throughout Victoria, Nanaimo, Saanich and nearby in Vancouver Island.

Why spray foam?

Spray foam insulation comes either as a low-density foam or a medium-density foam. It creates a seamless blanket of R20 insulation on your crawlspace walls, which stops the heat loss and prevents the cold drafts from entering your home.

What's the best R-value for my crawl space insulation?

R-value determines the heat flow resistance of your insulation. Island Basement Systems's spray foam Crawl Space Wall Insulation has an R20 rating.

Still have passive vents in the walls of your crawl space?

This method has long been proven to be ineffective at solving moisture problems in crawl spaces (in fact, it contributes to moisture issues). Creating a conditioned crawlspace is the answer, and we have done so in over 5,000 crawlspaces on Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands, Whistler, and Powell River.

Keeping your crawl space dry with spray foam insulation

If you're interested in keeping your crawl space dry to help prevent mold, rot, and musty odors, Island Basement Systems's spray foam Crawl Space Wall Insulation is the system for you! Closed-cell spray foam also creates a vapor barrier on your crawl space walls that keeps moisture from making its way into your crawl space, where that moisture would help mold, rot, and mildew growth.

Most importantly, it prevents condensation on the rim joist, which in turn prevents the wood rot from occurring. Island Basement Systems also installs our CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier ground-seal and several crawl space waterproofing products such as:

  • SmartSump™ Sump Pump System to control flooding
  • SmartPipe™ Drainage System; the only drainage system made specifically for crawl spaces,
  • Durable CleanSpace® Drainage Matting

What NOT To Do

Far too often, we see crawl spaces vented, with fiberglass insulation on the ceiling. Crawl space vents bring humid air into a home during the summertime, where it's cooled in the crawl space.

Before Spray Foam Insulation in Central Saanich.

Partially insulated and passively vented, this damp crawlspace in Parksville had the rim joist replaced because of the condensation. Now it's clean, well insulated, and dry!

As this air cools, the air's relative humidity rises, and the excess moisture is left on surfaces in the crawl space in the form of condensation. Some of this moisture ends up on the fiberglass insulation in your crawl space.

Wet or damp fiberglass insulation does not insulate as well as dry insulation, and the added weight will pull it from the ceiling, leaving it in messy, useless piles on the floor. Wet insulation can actually become a food source for mold and rot, which will also grow on any other organic material in your crawl space, including your wood framing.

Additionally, while you're insulating your floor, you probably have utilities in your crawl space, such as your water heater, furnace, heating ducts, and hot water pipes. If you allow the cold winter air into your home through crawl space vents, these heat-generating utilities will be forced to work that much harder.

In short - crawl space vents and fiberglass insulation simply do not work!
