Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

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.

This homeowner in Joly, QC, needed immediate assistance reinforcing beams and joists in their crawl space. Notice in the before photo, the structural integrity was compromised by weakened beams, contributing to uneven floors. Our team at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec expertly installed the SmartJack® System, stabilizing the beams and lifting the floor to its original elevation. To address humidity and potential mold issues, we paired it with the efficient SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidification system. As the after photo shows, the flooring is solid and the crawl space environment safeguarded.

Before our intervention, this home’s crawl space in Wotton was facing several issues, including high humidity, musty odors, and an exposed dirt floor that allowed moisture to accumulate. These conditions created the perfect environment for mold growth and could negatively impact the home’s energy efficiency.

After our team completed the work, the crawl space was completely transformed with the installation of CleanSpace Drainage Matting, TerraBlock insulation, and the CleanSpace vapor barrier. The area is now protected, moisture is controlled, and the space is clean, dry, and much healthier, helping improve the home’s overall comfort and durability.
