Before & After Photos

Mr. Ephraim has lived in his house for 10 years. It had been almost 4 years since he had cracks fixed in the foundation of his house, but the situation never improved but on the contrary, the cracks widened and other cracks appeared.

Mr. Ephraim wanted to find the peace of mind and avoid any future problems, so he contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to solidify the foundation walls of his house.

To solve our client's problem, our experts laid PushPiers under the foundation footing of the house. These pillars reach deep into solid rocky soil to support the weight of the house. This will permanently solidify the foundation of the house. A possible straightening of the foundation can be carried out.

With this solution, Mr. Ephraim can regain the peace of mind as the foundation of his house is stabilized once and for all.

Before: A customer from SouthWest, Montreal started noticing that the floor of his upper house was sagging, in addition to Drywall cracks throughout the house.

After: Following the inspection of our specialist, our company has recommended the installation of a CleanSpace membrane, a SmartSump pump system, and SmartJack Pillars

This solution pleased this resident of Southwest because it has solved her problems in a short time and for a reasonable investment.

The foundation of Mr. Diaz's house was slowly sagging. He knew that if he does nothing, his foundation will continue to sag. So he wanted to have it fixed before the problem gets worse. He decided to contact Système Sous-sol Québec to obtain a permanent solution.

The problem was that the ground under the foundation is weak and unstable. This caused movement of the wooden beams which support the weight of the house causing overload of weight and slits in the beams in several places. Because of this, the foundation was quietly sagging.

The solution for our client is to install SmartJack supports to support the joist reinforcement device in place. A hole is dug in the earth for each SmartJack installed and is filled with compacted fill to create a stable base. About ten brackets were installed in order to support the weight evenly and straighten the floor to the floor above in its initial position.

 With this solution, Mr. Diaz will have nothing more to fear for his foundation.

We have repaired our Client’s crawl space in SouthWest Montreal after our client noticed his house floor was sagging.

Furthermore, we have Installed our company's  SmartJack Support Pillars which are steel support systems used to stabilized and level the girders and floor joists in a Crawlspace.

The SmartJAcks Support Pillar is the best system to lift above floors and walls back to their original position.

PROBLEM

Krystle, the owner of a house in Montreal, was facing issues due to complications with her floor. There were several areas incarnating floor slops. In addition, there some gaps between the floor and some of the interior wall. Our specialist Cesar visited Krystle for a free inspection. In addition to the bouncy floor, some doors and windows were stuck, making them difficult to open or close.

While inspecting the crawlspace, Cesar immediately felt the excess moisture. The wood began to rot and to become more and more weak. Consequently, the main beams and floor joists were unable to support the weight of the house, leading to sagging floor.

SOLUTION

Installing the SmartJack system to stabilize the floor joists in the crawlspace. In this case, it included six galvanized steel columns with a 16'' horizontal beam. What sets our SmartJack system apart is that the columns are adjustable depending on the size of each crawlspace. Additionally, galvanized steel is corrosion-resistant, thus ensuring the durability of the system. On the other hand, the installation of the columns and the horizontal beam is quick, with minimal disruption to the household.
