Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

Having discovered our company on Facebook, this customer living in Saint-Lambert area contacted us to tell us about his concerns about humidity and support system in his crawl space. Indeed, the air in the area was very heavy and cold. In addition, the support pillars were not strong enough because they did not support the floor of the upper floor properly, which caused it to sag. These problems are very dangerous for the health of the home and the safety of the family living there.

For example, we sent one of our specialists who recommended the installation of the following products: SilverGlo insulation panels, 12 SmartJack support pillars, WaterGuard interior foundation drain, SuperSump sump pump system, freeze protection IceGuard Discharge Line, LawnScape Discharge Line Discharge Mouth.

With these products, the water can no longer infiltrate the crawl space and affect the air by releasing water vapor, because the water is intercepted by the internal drain and discharged by the sump pump. The water vapor is blocked by the SilverGlo insulation and the crawl space roof is now more than solid thanks to the SmartJacks

After having water seeping into his basement our clients contacted our company for a free consultation.

 As you can see in the pictures, this was the old sump pump used that was not working well.

 In the second picture, you can see that our company has replaced the old sump pump with the Super Sump Pump.

This sump is completely closed and does not let out moisture, drains water under the slab with its 100 holes, has an alarm that sounds in an emergency and can be added a battery backup pump.

 As a result, our client's basement was totally dry and he could benefit properly from the area.

A resident of Saint-Lambert contacted Basement Systems Quebec in order to have his basement inspected by a specialist. Due to hydrostatic pressure, the water that accumulated around the foundation easily seeped through it and ended up on the basement floor. Our technicians recommended the installation of the WaterGuard interior foundation drain system and the SuperSump sump pump system. Once the installation was complete, our client’s basement was completely waterproofed.

Here is one of our worksites in Saint-Lambert, where we changed the open and poorly performing pedestal pump with our company’s best sump pump systems, the TripleSafe.

Pumps on pedestals overheat and usually make more noise since they are installed outside the sump!

The TripleSafe system, as you see in the photo, has 3 pumps including a battery-operated backup pump to continuously operate and minimize the risk of water infiltration into the basement.

Problem

Not having a French drain, plus having water infiltration and humidity in the basement. Ms. Choquette wants to waterproof her basement.

Solution

Waterproof the basement by installing a WaterGuard interior foundation drain throughout the footing and a SuperSump sump pump system.
