Professional Crawlspace Care in Crawlspace Specialists Clearbrook

Clearbrook is one of the older residential communities in Abbotsford, developed as a distinct Mennonite farming settlement before being absorbed into the modern city. The residential areas of Clearbrook have housing stock from the 1950s through the 1970s on relatively flat terrain with heavy clay soils — conditions very similar to the older Fraser Valley communities we serve throughout the Lower Mainland. Crawlspace moisture and mold issues are common in this housing stock, which was built to the standards of its era.

The Clearbrook area's flat topography and heavy clay soils make drainage challenging. Storm infrastructure in the older parts of this community has limited capacity compared to modern standards, and during major rain events, water can back up and increase hydrostatic pressure against foundations. We design Clearbrook drainage solutions to handle these higher-flow conditions, particularly for homes that have experienced periodic flooding in the past.
