Problem

Mr. Boerr's building sank into the ground. Several external and internal signs were apparent including cracks on the corners of the doors and windows, in addition to  cracks on the stairs.

Solution

Pile up the building. Our team installed the push piers under the footing to stabilize it and prevent any future subsidence.

Without helical fins, Push Piers can be driven to greater depths without bending, providing support for heavier structures.

We have stabilized our client’s foundations permanently in Montreal-Nord thanks to our Push Piers system.

Push Piers are often the least risky solution when local soil conditions are unknown.

In addition, Push Piers support pillars can be installed from inside and outside and the finish will be clean and neat.

Mr. Young has lived in his home for over 10 years. He already had a few cracks in the foundation of his house, but that didn't worry him. Over time, the cracks widened. Worried, Mr. Young decided to contact Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to find a permanent solution to his problem with foundation cracks.

The solution for our client was to install the CarbonArmor straps where there were cracks. This helps to strengthen and stabilize the foundation walls and prevent the cracks from growing.

With this solution, Mr. Young's foundation walls are permanently reinforced.

Ms. Chong had a big problem with cracks on one of the foundation walls. So she contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to find out the source of the problem and resolve it.

 The problem was the sagging of the foundation of her house caused by the movement of the ground.

In order to solve this problem, our experts laid 8 push peirs under the foundation pad. Their role is to stabilize the foundation permanently. These pillars are made of steel and are driven deep into the earth to bedrock or other stable layer. They can present an opportunity to pull the house up to its original position and often caulk cracks.

Ms. Berryman who lives in Brossard started to notice that cracks had been created in several places on the walls of the exterior foundation. In addition, she could also see cracks inside her house near the door frames and on the ceiling. She was starting to get worried about her house and wanted to have the foundation of her house repaired.So she decided to contact Systèmes Sous-sol Québec for a free estimate.

The solution for Ms. Berryman was to install hydraulic piles under the footing to straighten it. To do this, our experts excavated all along the foundation walls to reach the footing. And then they installed several hydraulic piles. This first makes it possible to straighten the foundation walls, possibly completely plug the foundation cracks and solidly stabilize the foundation so that it can no longer move.
