Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Our client wanted to protect his basement against water infiltration. After doing some research on the internet, he chose to do business with Système Sous-sol Québec.

Our specialist went to his home and offered him a WaterGuard interior drain system. We install it indoors, because it will be located far away from mud sediment. These sediments always end up clogging the external French drains.

This drainage system dumps the collected water into a system of sump pumps. It has three pumps, one of which is battery operated.

Thanks to these top solutions, our client benefits from a basement protected against water infiltration.

Our team has waterproofed this house in Sainte-Rose.

We have first sealed the wall cracks with polyurethane and FlexiSpan injection. Then, our team dug a trench all around the perimeter of the walls to install the WaterGuard interior drain that intercepts water from the floor and walls. A TrenchDrain has also been installed to intercept water coming through doors and stairs.

To evacuate the water in the drain, we installed a SuperSump sump pump system combined with an UltraSump booster pump system. So there is no risk that the basement will be flooded during storms that cause power outages because the UltraSump pump will start automatically and the alarm will indicate that this pump is running.

Our client had a water infiltration problem every thaw season. To fix the problem, he contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to resolve his problem for good.

To do this, we installed a WaterGuard system along the perimeter of his basement. This innovative drain makes it possible to evacuate the water that infiltrates the basement without digging externally and without any maintenance. We also installed a sump pump system equipped with a main pump and another that works with a battery.

Thanks to the solutions of Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, our client benefits from a dry basement at all times.

Problem

Mrs. Trottier had moisture problems in her crawl space. A rate of 82% was detected during the free inspection due to water infiltration problems.

Solution

Encapsulate the crawl space with our CleanSpace drainage membrane and liner. And then, install a sump pump system that is efficient, reliable and will work even in the case of a power outage.

Water will permanently damage most porous materials by shrinking or warping them, and mildew will damage them even further.

This is why you always need to waterproof your basement before finishing it.

This house in Vimont had been waterproofed by our team last year.

We have installed 37 feet of WaterGuard interior drain, a SuperSump sump pump system and the CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane to block moisture and redirect the water to the drain.

Thanks to our products, this basement was always dry and healthy!
