When our client purchased this house, he knew of the existence of the water table. What he didn't know was the problems with this location. Indeed, a house located on a water table can lead to significant water infiltration in the basement. The client wanted to avoid this.
Mr. Savard therefore wanted a solution that would not only collect the infiltrating water, but also eliminate it from his basement. The chosen combination was therefore our WaterGuard and our SuperSump pump system.
Our SuperSump can help keep the basement dry by discharging the internal drain, and lowering the water level in the soil under the slab.
The WaterGuard Drain is specifically designed to be placed above the base on a bed of rocks, slowing down the flow of water and preventing the drain from clogging. In addition, it is important that it contains a 3/8 inch built-in space between the floor and the wall to drain infiltrations from the wall. Spacers visible along the wall allow water to be collected in the drain while blocking dirt and debris. Once covered with concrete, the drain merges into the decor without damaging the structure of the foundation. In order to perform system checks, we also install an inspection port that allows access to the drain and ensures its smooth operation over the years. The WaterGuard drain is the new technology in drainage and its effectiveness is proven!
In the heart of Crabtree, QC, this homeowner faced the worry of a failing sump pump, risking a waterlogged basement. Our mission led us to replace the old system with our TripleSafe Sump Pump, ensuring peace of mind during heavy rain. Notice in the before photo the old setup's inefficiency contrasted with the after photo showcasing our sleek, robust solution. Now, this basement stays dry year-round, proving our commitment to reliable, long-lasting, and worry-free waterproofing.
There was a very high level of humidity in this basement in Sutton. The problem with stone walls is that they are more conducive to water infiltration, as there are many cracks and spaces between the stones which allow water, humidity and cold to enter the basement.
To remedy this situation, we installed our patented TripleSafe sump pump system which removes water from the ground. It is our most efficient system and is equipped with 3 pumps; a main pump, an alternative and a battery. Next, we installed our patented WaterGuard interior drainage system. In this way the water which passes through the wall or which comes from the ground is directed directly towards the TripleSafe pump which will expel it outside the house. Finally, we insulated the walls with our superior Foamax insulation which gives a clear and clean appearance to the basement.
Before diving into our basement transformation in Saint-Antoine-sur-Richelieu, QC, the basement was showing visible signs of water infiltration, a common issue magnified by an outdated sump pump. We installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump, not just upgrading the homeowner's sump system, but revitalizing their space into a drier, safer environment. This is how we turn basement woes into wins, providing peace of mind with every installation.
