Problem

Infiltration of water in the crawl space creating humidity, mold and rot on the wood. Hence the humidity made the house less comfortable.

Solution

Encapsulate the crawl space with our CleanSpace drainage membrane and liner on the floor and walls. And then install a SuperSump sump pump system. Humidity will be reduced or even eliminated, and infiltrating water will be expelled outside the house thanks to our SuperSump pump.

PROBLEM

The client was unaware of the state of her crawl space in the first years after moving in. Once she saw the space, filled with iron ochre, she got worried. She decided to contact us.

SOLUTION

It was essential to install a pump since the iron ochre had blocked the existing drains, creating water infiltration. We also opted for the CleanSpace product, so Mrs. Nathalie could enjoy a clean crawl space. She now feels reassured that the crawl space will be efficient in her home in Saint-Calixte, QC.

The problem

The foundation walls of Mr. Meilleur's house are cracked, arched, and sloped severely inward by almost 4 ”.

 The solution

 - Stop the movement by keeping the wall in place and allow it to recover over time.

To do this, our experts installed our GeoLock wall anchoring system. They are embedded in the stable soil away from the foundation wall and then attached to steel wall plates with long galvanized rods. When tightened, the anchors hold the wall in its current position. Over time, the anchors can be tightened to straighten the wall.

Mr. Meilleur can have the peace of mind because his walls are well held in place and can be straightened over time.

Problem: The client who lives in Lachine had a crack visible from the outside and he suspected that it was inside as well.

Solution: We injected the crack and added the Flexispan to give a nice finish. Also, we installed CarbonArmor to stabilize the foundation.

Mr. Marc needed to replace his sump pump, which was no longer functional, causing water to accumulate at the bottom of the sump in the basement and decided to contact our company for a free inspection.

Following his call, our crew quickly took action and waterproofed the space and installed a new sump pump system called SuperSump pump. This high-end system includes a powerful Zoeller ⅓ horsepower cast-iron sump pump, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head out of your basement.

Our SuperSump not only helps discharge the internal drain, but also helps in lowering the water level in the soil under the slab.

Mr. Marc is now very satisfied with the installation and the customer service of Basement Systems Québec.
