Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

Our client's basement in Saint-Hilaire-de-Dorset had problems with excessive moisture and water infiltration, which compromised air quality and the use of the space. The signs were obvious: water marks on the floor, persistent odors, and deterioration of materials. With our WaterGuard interior drainage system professionally installed along the foundation, infiltrated water is intercepted and directed to the sump pump before it can cause damage to the structure. The drainage membrane, laid on the slab, allows for optimal water flow to the system, preventing any accumulation of standing water. This effective combination provides lasting protection against moisture, preserves the integrity of the basement, and creates a dry space ready for storage, finishing, or expansion of living space.

A visible foundation crack inside the basement was stressing the homeowners. They were planning to finish the basement, but wanted to make sure this existing crack won't cause any future issues. Upon inspection, our specialist explained that there is not foundation settlement for the time being, but this cracks needed to be sealed in order not to cause any water infiltration. 

We used our patented FlexiSpan system to fill and seal the crack permanently, without the risk of future problems. the client was impressed with the quality of our work and is now ready to transform his basement into a living area.

Before the work began, the crawl space presented several significant issues, including a high level of moisture buildup, persistent odors, and visible signs of condensation and material deterioration. This type of environment often promotes mold growth, the presence of fungi, as well as the risk of water infiltration and gradual structural deterioration. In this case, floor sagging and a lack of adequate support were also observed, which directly affected the stability and comfort of the home.

To address these issues, a comprehensive encapsulation solution was implemented using the CleanSpace system, installed over a drainage membrane to effectively control moisture and limit water seepage. The addition of a SuperSump sump pump now enables optimal groundwater management and significantly reduces the risk of flooding or stagnant water accumulation.

Moisture control has been enhanced through the installation of a high-performance SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, ensuring drier, healthier air and better long-term protection against mold. Finally, SmartJacks were installed to stabilize the structure, correct sagging, and restore the integrity of the floor.

This project offers a comprehensive crawl space repair solution that combines encapsulation, moisture control, drainage, and structural stabilization to deliver a durable, clean, and safe result.

A client in Vallee-Jonction, Quebec had concerns regarding their crawl space, which was experiencing humidity and unpleasant odors. Upon inspection, our specialist identified signs of compromised structural integrity, including presence of mold spores, which is a clear sign of excessive moisture levels within the crawl space.

To resolve the problem, we implemented the CleanSpace encapsulation system, which involved the installation of drainage matting and a high-performance vapor barrier. These two components work synergistically to regulate humidity levels, prevent the infiltration of water, and inhibit the evaporation of moisture from the soil. As a result, the crawl space is now fully encapsulated, dry, and secure, safeguarding the structural integrity of the home.

In Lac-Megantic, many homeowners encounter a common problem: floors that sag, creak, or bounce, often due to weakened joists in the crawl space. In this house, the instability of the beams was visible and worrisome, prompting the owners to seek a reliable solution to ensure the safety and comfort of their home.

To address this problem, we installed the SmartJack® system, specially designed to stabilize floor beams and joists and effectively straighten sagging floors. This intervention not only eliminates bounce and tilt, but also permanently reinforces the structure of the house.

Thanks to the galvanized steel used in the installation, the house now has a solid and durable foundation capable of supporting the floors over the long term. This solution provides homeowners with peace of mind, comfort, and safety for years to come.
