From cracks to straightened walls: a successful renovation in Très-Saint-Rédempteur, QC
In Très-Saint-Rédempteur, a homeowner began to worry when cracks appeared in the foundation walls, moisture seeped in, and some walls began to lean inward. Little by little, the risk became real: loss of comfort, mold growth, and fear of more serious subsidence.
Faced with these problems, our team at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec stepped in with a reliable solution: our PowerBrace® system. These galvanized steel beams, measured and customized on site, were installed along the walls to stabilize them immediately. Securely attached to the floor and ceiling, they will even gradually straighten the walls over time, all without having to dig or do any invasive work.
Today, the house is protected, the basement is healthier, and the owner can finally enjoy peace of mind, knowing that their foundation is in good hands.

When you suffer from water infiltration in your basement, always check whether your sump pump is working efficiently.
The TripleSafe sump pump, such as the one installed in our client’s basement in Rigaud, is designed to protect you from any problems that might occur with standard sump pumps. As well as an alarm to alert your attention to any problems, it also uses a specially designed Ultra Sump battery (not an automobile or marine battery) and auxiliary pump to backup the primary pump. This ensures the Triple Safe sump pump continues to work even in the case of a power failure or pump malfunction.
