Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

We sent our team to inspect this basement in Saint-André-Avellin.

There was water in the basement, and the owner told us that the water entering his basement is coming from rain and melting snow.

Our client had also an open sump, but it was not beneficial at all, so we suggested a complete waterproofing system to get rid of the water for good!

Furthermore, we installed our interior drainage system the ‘WaterGuard’ with an inspection port and connected it to a SuperSump sump pump.

When you have a perimeter drainage system installed in your home, your sump pump is your main line of defense against a basement flood.

In Lac-Saguay, a homeowner was dealing with persistent moisture in their crawl space, creating the perfect environment for mold and wood rot. In the “before” photo, moisture had deeply permeated the space. To remedy this, we installed our CleanSpace, an innovative waterproofing system, along with our drainage matting for optimal water management. In the “after” photo, the transformation is clear: the crawl space is now fully encapsulated, protecting the structure from moisture, while drainage ensures efficient water circulation. With these advanced solutions, we not only cleaned up the space, but also ensured a stronger, more durable foundation for the home.

Our client had a foundation problem. The hydrostatic pressure had bent the foundation of his walls in the basement.

After looking for solutions on the internet, she decided to contact Système Sous-ol. An appointment was set and a specialist went to do an assessment.

In order to fix the problem, PowerBraces were needed. It was necessary to support the foundation walls first and then straighten them.

Thanks to our company, our client solved her foundation problems and can now enjoy now a safe house.

PROBLEM

A house in Papineauville had a damp crawl space. There were water infiltrations coming from the walls, which caused mold growth. During our free inspection, our specialist Houssem took care of the visit. Descending into the crawl space, he was able to identify mold, causing an unpleasant odor. Serious structural damage that could even affect the foundation of the house could occur in case no action was taken.

SOLUTION

Encapsulation of the crawl space using the CleanSpace system. This involves covering the crawl space floor with a drainage membrane and a vapor barrier on top:

The drainage membrane has a cellular surface that helps transport infiltrated water towards the drainage or sump pump.

- The vapor barrier prevents the evaporation of infiltrated water, thereby eliminating excessive humidity. It also includes an antimicrobial additive that prevents mold growth.

- To ensure good thermal insulation of the crawl space walls, we installed SilverGlo wall insulation panels. In addition to resisting thermal conduction, SilverGlo panels have a radiant barrier that reflects heat inside the crawl space for energy savings.

A homeowner in Notre-Dame-De-La-Paix contacted us after his existing sump pump stopped working, exposing his basement to a major risk of water infiltration. After assessing the situation, our team proceeded to install a highly efficient and reliable sump pump system designed to evacuate water, including a battery backup in case of power failure. A solution that ensures the long-term protection of your home.
