Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

Ms. Tremblay contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, because a strong odor of humidity emanated from her basement. There was several water seepage, mold and its sump pump system was not sufficient to remove all the water. All of these factors caused this unpleasant smell of dampness.

Our client wanted a complete and permanent solution to her problem. And for that, our experts installed a WaterGuard interior drain which is connected to a second SmartPump sump pump system. In this way, the water ends up in the WaterGuard and the latter will direct it to the Smart Pump. Then they laid a drainage mat on the gravel floor. Its function is to direct the surface water towards the sump pump. They added the TerraBlock insulation sheets to the drainage mat in order to insulate the floor of the house and allow for some comfort when moving. Finally, they applied our CleanSpace coating on top of the TerraBlock. The three combined (Drainage Mat, TerraBlock and CleanSpace) form a perfect trio for insulating and waterproofing the basement.

This customer in Magog contacted us in 2015 to solve his problem of water infiltration in his unfinished basement. He used this space as a storage room. He was beginning to worry that water is damaging these assets. Actually when our specialist went on site and found this problem, has also noticed that the humidity was far too high. Moisture is very harmful to building materials as it speeds up mold and condensation and is harmful to your health. Our specialist immediately realized that a complete waterproofing and dehumidification system was needed. So we installed a WaterGuard indoor drain system connected to a SuperSump sump pump system to evacuate the water away from home. We also solved the moisture problem by installing the SanidDry XP that dries and purifies the air. This ensures that the basement can be used for many purposes, including storage, without any worries.

We have solved our customer’s problem in Magog, after having water infiltration problems in his basement that was also affecting his entire house.

Furthermore, tempered soils and damp walls are a sign that water and water vapor has been seeping into his basement.

To solve this customer's water problem, we installed a complete waterproofing system including 25 feet of WaterGuard drain, a SuperSump sump pump, and IceGuard and LawnScape discharge line accessories.

The 3 most common sump pump problems are: the pump breaks down and stops working, the pump cannot keep up with the fast flow and cannot pump too much water or the house suffered a power failure and the pump stops working.

If you have the same problem as it was for our Ogden customer, we have the TripleSafe system that contains 3 different pumps to address each of these 3 risks.

The first one operates under normal conditions, the second one starts when the first one cannot follow the flow and volume, and the last one is a booster pump which starts on a battery during a power failure! Problem fixed!

Humidity in crawl space was causing concern to our client in St-Francois-Xavier-De-Brompton, Quebec. The clear signs of moisture buildup was creating an uninviting environment and may in the future cause further structural damage. We stepped in, bringing our expertise with the CleanSpace encapsulation system. This includes CleanSpace Drainage Matting adding a layer of protection as it channels water to the drainage system. In addition, the CleanSpace liner serve a barrier to stop excess humidity from ruining the house's air quality. And to optimize the crawl space's humidity levels, we installed our SaniDry Sedona, which is an excellent dehumidifier. After our intervention, the crawl space was transformed into a dry, inviting area.
