Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

Mr. Young has lived in his home for over 10 years. He already had a few cracks in the foundation of his house, but that didn't worry him. Over time, the cracks widened. Worried, Mr. Young decided to contact Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to find a permanent solution to his problem with foundation cracks.

The solution for our client was to install the CarbonArmor straps where there were cracks. This helps to strengthen and stabilize the foundation walls and prevent the cracks from growing.

With this solution, Mr. Young's foundation walls are permanently reinforced.

Our client, Lee, had water infiltration during every season in his basement. Having done the finishing of the entire place, he would run the risk of developing mold.

To solve the problem, we installed an ElitePlank floor that resists mold. At the same time, an interior drainage system evacuates water that may infiltrate during periods of rain and thaw.

Thanks to our solutions, our client benefits from a basement protected against water infiltration and mold.

Facing a damp and cold crawl space in Brossard, Quebec, the homeowner contacted us for advice. During the inspection, our specialist Roxane explained that bad crawl space will affect the quality of the air going inside the house, and thus causing potential health issues and allergies. In addition, persistent humidity will result in mold growth and potentially wood rot, thus causing potential structural damage. As a remedy, we installed our CleanSpace system, including the drainage matting and the vapor barrier. This system will regulate humidity levels while infiltrated water will be channeled to the drain or the sump pump. The walls were also covered by our SilverGlo thermal insulation that will help keep the temperature warm and regulated. Our client was happy with the transformation done within the crawl space, knowing that he is now in a safe environment. 

Ms. Chong had a big problem with cracks on one of the foundation walls. So she contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to find out the source of the problem and resolve it.

 The problem was the sagging of the foundation of her house caused by the movement of the ground.

In order to solve this problem, our experts laid 8 push peirs under the foundation pad. Their role is to stabilize the foundation permanently. These pillars are made of steel and are driven deep into the earth to bedrock or other stable layer. They can present an opportunity to pull the house up to its original position and often caulk cracks.

Ms. Berryman who lives in Brossard started to notice that cracks had been created in several places on the walls of the exterior foundation. In addition, she could also see cracks inside her house near the door frames and on the ceiling. She was starting to get worried about her house and wanted to have the foundation of her house repaired.So she decided to contact Systèmes Sous-sol Québec for a free estimate.

The solution for Ms. Berryman was to install hydraulic piles under the footing to straighten it. To do this, our experts excavated all along the foundation walls to reach the footing. And then they installed several hydraulic piles. This first makes it possible to straighten the foundation walls, possibly completely plug the foundation cracks and solidly stabilize the foundation so that it can no longer move.
