Foundations stabilized by piling work in Magog, Quebec.
This Magog customer contacted us to tell us about his concerns regarding his house foundations after noticing big cracks in the drywall and as well as the floors.
Following the request of our client, we sent our specialist to perform a complete internal and external evaluation of the house and we installed 9 steel support pillars PushPiers.
The PushPier is one of our patented support products and the best of its kind on the market. We have also installed an outdoor French drain and the SentrySeal membrane which serves as protection against the moisture entering through the pores of the concrete. And finally, we have installed our SilverGlo insulation panels, which are panels that reflect the heat to your basement.
A whole waterproofing job in this basement in Magog,Qc
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.
Waterproofing and dehumidification of a basement in Magog, Quebec.
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.
