Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

Our clients in Beaconsfield had a water infiltration problem due the sump pump overflowing during a big rain. They thought this could happen again, as they only had one pump in the pit and there was no battery backup system. They only knew about there issue when it was too late and the water was already on their basement floor. Also their sump pit was open, causing a lot of humidity in the basement.  

As they thought this could definitely happen again, they called us to install a sump pit with the intention of finishing their basement. They needed a system that would give them the peace of mind, once and for all. As such, our specialist recommended the TripleSafe sump pump system, as this met the clients' needs with features such as 2 main pumps, one battery-operated backup pump, an alarm system and an airtight sump lid to help lower the humidity level in the basement.

Problem

Mrs. Weaver had water leaks in her basement. This is due to the malfunction of her sump pump.

Solution

Replace your pump with our SuperSump sump pump system. This pump is able to pump outside the basement up to 8,300 liters of water per hour, it will keep our client's basement dry with our Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier.

Attic insulation is an important step in solving problems of home comfort, health and wasted energy (and money). This client contacted us because the temperatures in the different rooms fluctuated a lot. In addition, the old insulation became dirty and unhealthy and accumulated dust, dirt and other unwanted material.

To solve this problem, our team began by removing all the old insulation. Then we sealed all the places such as gaps, wiring holes, hunts and the top of the walls to block any air leaks. It was also necessary to encapsulate the ducts with our Tight 'n True high R-value spray foam system. Finally, we insulate the entire space with TruSoft insufflated cellulose. All these products allow the attic to be completely insulated by blocking all air leaks and controlling the energy released in your home.

We repaired a client's foundation in Sainte-Geneviève. When your concrete block foundation walls begin to crack, it is a sign that they're no longer stable. This is an important sign to consider a repair, but when the wall starts to bend, there is clearly a failure that needs to be addressed.

The PowerBrace system consists of galvanized steel beams that stabilize the walls. It is a system that tightens over time to counter the problem and bring the foundation back to its original position.

You will not find similar beams. That's why they are patented.

If you notice a problem of foundation, our specialists can help you by recommending you a solution adapted to the problem of your house in order to protect you and to restore the value of your home.

Water was seeping into this house in Sainte-Geneviève at the foot of the foundation.

The sump pump was installed in a sump hole that was not sealed. Dirt penetrated and moisture escaped.

Our client could not install an outdoor French drain because there was landscaping and a stone deck on the outside perimeter of the house where the water was seeping.

We have solved the problem and made the basement dry at all times, thanks to our complete waterproofing solution.

In order to remove the water effectively, we installed the TripleSafe system which provides triple protection. Then we installed our WaterGuard indoor drain system to prevent water infiltration from entering the living space of the basement.

Our ThermalDry system was then installed to create a thermal break and spaces to drain water while preventing water vapor from entering the basement.
