Before tackling this homeowner's challenge in Pike River, QC, their crawl space was barely recognizable: poorly insulated and lacking sturdy foundation support. As you can see in the photo, it was an area in dire need of intervention. But take a look at the after photo - our team transformed it with SmartJack for solid foundation reinforcement, wrapped it up with CleanSpace for a waterproof barrier, and insulated with SilverGlo to keep it energy-efficient. This isn't just a repair; it's a long-term solution ensuring comfort and stability for years to come.
PROBLEM
Mr Dany never really saw any issues with his foundation, until recently. He had been the homeowner for many years before he noticed that the foundation walls started to cave in. He knew he wanted to act quick to solve the issues but had no idea what would be the best solution.
SOLUTION
The client didn't know where to start but he knew he needed a permanent fix. This is the reason he chose steel PushPiers, 6 to be exact. Those piers attach to the footing of the foundation to stabilize the house. Mr Dany was so pleased that the work was completed quickly and can now enjoy his home in Sainte-Brigide-d'Iberville, Qc.
If you want to stop mold from growing in your basement, you will want to make sure the walls, flooring and any items inside the basement are completely dried.
By doing so you need to waterproof the entire area, by installing a good sump pump system, such as our TripleSafe sump pump.
When choosing a sump pump system for your home, there are several features to consider. Our Company’s pumping systems include an alarm, watertight cover and check valve.
PROBLEM
There was a major flooding in the basement of this residence in Rougemont, Qc. The water had infiltrated quickly and in large quantities and the basement was completely ruined. Our client got very worried that this might affect badly on the rest of his house.
SOLUTION
Our team reacted quickly and proceeded with an installation that would guarantee a dry space and will be protected from any future flooding.
A SuperSump pump was installed, which is the most efficient pump capable of pumping 2200 gallons per hour, quietly and efficiently.
The SuperSump can be installed with an optional UltraSump Battery Backup Sump Pump, which can pump out 11,500 gallons or more on a single charge!
Faced with repeated water infiltration, constant humidity, mold, unpleasant odors, and signs of efflorescence on the foundation walls, a homeowner in La Présentation turned to Systèmes Sous-sol Québec for a durable, professional solution. These common basement problems: active cracks, water accumulation, concrete deterioration, and loss of usable space threatened both the structure of the house and everyday comfort.
To effectively remedy the situation, our team installed WaterGuard®, an interior drainage system specially designed to capture and redirect water at the base of the walls before it enters the living space. This installation ensures constant drainage, even during heavy rains or seasonal water rise.
To protect the basement from the freezing temperatures typical of Quebec's climate, we integrated IceGuard®, which allows water to be drained even when the pipe is frozen. To complete the solution, we installed a SuperSump®, a high-performance sump pump known for its reliability and ability to handle large volumes of water.
Thanks to this comprehensive intervention, the owner's basement is now dry, healthy, and better protected against future infiltration, providing lasting peace of mind and added value to the property.
