Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

A client from Pointe-Claire, QC called us to let us know of his concerns about his crawl space. He noticed that moisture was forming on the support beams in his crawlspace and that the beams were sagging.

The experienced specialist Mike Costello went to the client’s house and advised him to install SmartJacks to support the sagging  joists as well as to encapsulate his crawl space with a Cleanspace membrane, in order to prevent the humidity problem from persisting.

The customer is now very satisfied with the work of the team and is very reassured.

When the homeowner in Pointe-Claire, QC, wrestled with excess humidity in their basement, they knew it was time to call us. As you can see in the before photo, the space was hardly usable, bogged down by moisture issues. But look at the transformation! After our team stepped in, installing our WaterGuard, SuperSump, the after photo speaks volumes. No more dampness, no more mustiness – just a dry, comfortable basement ready for any purpose. We’re proud to deliver not just a fix, but a lasting solution and peace of mind.

Having a house by the water is nice. But when water and water vapors affect the humidity of the house, it is less pleasant. For this reason, this owner has contacted us so we can meet him with one of our certified specialists in basement waterproofing and crawl space encapsulation. So we sent Jerry who has been working with us for a long time. Jerry noticed that there was no damage and that it would be enough to encapsulate this void.

Our foreman Jonathan and his team began by removing all the debris from the crawlspace. Then, they installed a drainage mat and encapsulated the vacuum with the CleanSpace vapors barrier membrane. This product is the most effective on the market. It is composed of 7 layers and is therefore extremely resistant. An antibacterial additive is injected in to block the growth of mold. This product is specially designed for the basement environment and we are very proud of it. This client can now use the crawl space for useful purposes.

The SuperSump is one of the best sump pump systems you can have at home. This system contains the most reliable pump, the WaterWatch alarm system and a patented waterproofed cover. The SupeSump is clean and nothing can infiltrate it. You can store goods on top without breaking it, saving you space. The Zoeller pump inside can drain 2650 gallons of water per hour. The alarm system sounds when the water level rises higher than normal so that you have time to react to this risk before damage occurs. The ultra-resistant polyethylene coating contains 96 holes that allow water that travels through the soil to be intercepted. Finally, the waterproof cover allows the water to be captured without the vapors emerge and humidify the space.

The most common cause of basement leaks is pressure created by the water in the soil surrounding the foundation. During periods of heavy or persistent rain, the soil can become saturated, creating hydrostatic pressure that can push moisture and water through your basement walls and floor.

So when our client from Roxboro started suffering from water leakage, he knew that he needed a professional intervention to fix this matter, so he contacted our company in order to solve this problem.

When our specialist Petru went to his place, he assured him that waterproofing the place is the best solution to end his basement problems once and for all.

The most effective way to keep water out of your basement is to install an interior drainage system as we did here, in order to minimize hydrostatic pressure.

Our WaterGuard drainage system uses the concept of a traditional French drain and incorporates a unique, patented design that prevents the system from becoming clogged.

Then we install our TripleSafe sump pump that provides three-in-one waterproofing protection. In the unlikely event that your sump pump system does fail or is overwhelmed, a built-in sump pump alarm will sound off, warning you of an issue.
