Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

Our clients who live in Sherbrooke contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Qc because their sump pump stops working regularly and this has caused major water damage in their basement. She and her husband wanted a high-performance system that will give them the peace of mind.

Our foreman and his team removed the old pump to install our TripleSafe sump pump system. It offers 3-level protection with 2 high-performance Zoeller pumps and 1 battery-powered backup pump that's way better than you think. Our system includes an alarm, waterproof cover and supports for the pumps.

Foundation cracks are a big problem that many owners in Sherbrooke face. Reparations by injection, as you can see in the Before picture, is not always the best solution especially if the crack is horizontal. In this case, there is a good chance that water will penetrate back just like it happened with this client. 

We consequently installed a vapor barrier to drain the water towards the interior drain and to have a permanent solution. The SilverGlo membrane as shown in the picture, has an R-value of 11 to isolate foundation walls all over Quebec. 

This basement in Sherbrooke had water seepage that was coming through some cracks in the foundation.

In this case the leak was obvious, since our client was always noticing a pool of water on the floor.

After contacting our company, we sent our team for a free inspection, and therefore we suggested the installation of our interior drainage system’ the Waterguard’.

An exterior drainage system can do extensive damage to your lawn and cost you a lot of money while an interior drain system will eliminate those elements and do an amazing job at keeping your basement dry.

The ancestral home in Waterville had seasonal water infiltration and a damp dirt-floor crawl space. The air was musty, humidity levels were high, and the structure was at risk of long-term damage. The homeowners wanted a lasting solution to keep the space dry and improve air quality. The team from Systèmes Sous-sol Québec installed a full crawl space repair system. WaterGuard ensures proper water drainage, while the CleanSpace liner completely seals the floor and walls from moisture. The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier keeps the air dry and healthy, and SilverGlo panels provide thermal insulation. Outside, IceGuard and LawnScape help direct water safely away from the foundation.

The result is a clean, dry, insulated, and odor-free crawl space that protects the home from future water issues and enhances indoor comfort.

The problem: The client found that she had humidity coming from her crawl space, the windows were often fogged up. In addition, she told us during the inspection that her dehumidifier worked all year round and that was not a good sign.

The solution: For this project, they used CleanSpace and a smartsump in order to considerably reduce the humidity level in this crawl space. They also installed a discharge line with an Iceguard so that the water could be redirected even in winter.
