Our client in Ste-Catherine-De-La-J-Cartier contacted us through our website because he recently bought a property and the engineer who inspected the property discovered that the back foundation wall is domed inwards. We offered Mr. Dalidec a free inspection to come and take a look at his foundation. Upon completing the inspection, our specialist Roxane decided the best plan would be to install 6 PowerBraceTM Foundation Wall Repair System beams. Our foreman Jawad then went and carefully completed the installation of the 6 PowerBraceTM beams. Our client can now sleep easier at night knowing that his foundation walls aren’t crumbling beneath him. Once again, Systèmes Sous-sol Québec comes to the rescue, protecting the foundation of another house!
We repaired the basement slab that was sagging at this house in Verdun. Symptoms can be clearly seen in the cracks existing throughout the wooden support columns in the crawl space. By installing our slab piers, we stabilized the slab and the sagging floors in the upper house.
Our client from Hochelage, Montreal started noticing Drywall cracks throughout the house in addition to sagging floors which made him contact Systèmes Sous-sol Québec’to have his crawl space encapsulated.
In this picture you can see the big difference between an encapsulated and an uninsulated crawl space.
The insulation helped solve many issues the client had, and had improved the home comfort, healthfulness, energy efficiency and value of the house by insulating the upper floors from the cold, making the Crawl Space clean and letting her use the crawlspace as an additional storage room.
We have fixed our client’s foundation wall cracks in Pincourt, that had water seeping through those cracks, through injecting our Flexispan, polyutherane and SentrySeal injection.
Issue
Ms. Marie and Mr. Denis were having problems with foundation failure. The horizontal cracks in the middle of the wall were notable Our representative Karim carried out a detailed inspection of the interior and exterior walls. He detected other stair step cracks, indicating the worsening of the situation. In light of the above, Karim proposed suitable remedies.
Solution
Our team, led by Yuri installed PowerBrace steel beams throughout the basement to support and straighten the walls. As a result, the floor joists are reinforced, and the foundations are permanently stabilized. This has saved our client from serious subsidence complications which could occur if the problem is not addressed.
