Before & After Photos

This crawl space in Baie-D’urfe got flooded during spring time and there was presence of mold that developed everywhere.

Water and moisture was damaging the foundation and the concrete of the place.

We sent our specialist Jerry to perform a full inspection and recommend the best solution.

We started by decontaminating the entire crawl space to eliminate mold and fungi.

And since encapsulation will allow the crawl space to be protected at all times, our team encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane which is a membrane that insulates the house from the earth. And have also added the SilverGlo that sheds water and will not support mold growth or provide a home for pests.

And finally, we stabilized the foundations with our SmartJacks galvanized steel support beams. These beams support the joists and will be highly resistant to the hostile environment of the crawl space.

Mr. Simon in Baie-D’Urfe knew that he needed to waterproof his basement for it was always getting wet, but he kept postponing this issue, until one day his friend, who was our client, told him about our company and informed him that a wet basement is bad for his family’s health, since water moisture gets into the whole house, allowing mold to grow, in addition, critters, water bugs, termites, and other insects thrive on water leakage.

After contacting our company to get an idea about our products, we have informed him that he can get a free inspection. So our specialist Mr. Michel scheduled a meeting with him and after the examination, he suggested a complete waterproofing system.

The system includes a WaterGuard  interior drain; the WaterGuard will capture water that infiltrates through the floor and foundation walls; a TripleSafe pump that has 3 pump systems and will adjust automatically to meet pumping requirements; a Discharge line to keep the water out and away from the basement.

Mr. Guilbert was suffering from a problem of flooding in his basement, and the sump pump that was installed was not efficient and and allowed all the water to come in.

He therefore contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec in order to install a new high-performing and reliable sump pump system.

We therefore suggested the installation of our TripleSafe sump pump system. It is the most reliable and efficient pump thanks to its triple protection; 2 Zoellers pumps and 1 battery pump in case of power failure. Next, we laid an exterior discharge line to eject the water away from the foundation. And then we connected our IceGuard vent system to the exterior discharge line. It allows water to escape if the pipes freeze or become blocked for any reason.

With this basement waterproofing solution, Mr. Guilbert will have nothing to fear for next spring and even in all seasons!

Problem

Our client from Saint-Joseph-Du-Lac was experiencing issues with her sump pump. Indeed, the current pump had been functionning continuously for about two weeks, causing it to wear out and perform inadequately. The amount of infiltrated water exceeded its capacity. Consequently, water was escaping and damaging the basement floor. After filling out the form on our website, our specialist Laurent visited the site for a detailed inspection. It was necessary to take action to prevent structural damage that could affect the foundation of the house.

Solution

We installed our TripleSafe sump pump system, which will, without a doubt, ensure the safety of the basement. This system includes two excellent Zoeller pumps, with a third backup pump that operates on battery power. This allows the pump to continue working even in the event of an unexpected power outage. Additionally, the AlarmWatch system placed on the cover serves to provide advance warning, preventing any potential disasters.

Before tackling their damp and dingy basement in Saint-Rémi, QC, the homeowner knew it was time for a change. They turned to us, craving a complete sump pump system that could guarantee a dry basement year-round. They were beginning with a wet, troublesome space. But with the installation of our TripleSafe Sump Pump, showcased in the after photo, their basement transformed. Today, they enjoy a permanently dry and comfortable space, all thanks to a solution as effective as it is reliable.
