A wet basement that needed to be used in Montreal, Qc
Mrs. Maisan knew that she needed to fix a solution for her basement leakage in Montreal. She wanted to use the area and benefit from it to install all of her belongings.
After finding Systèmes Sous-sol Québec on the internet, she called our company for a free inspection and we have suggested her best waterproofing products in the market.
So we started by installing the the’ WaterGuard’ our inner French drain system; installed a SuperSump pump and sealed the wall cracks with our polyurethane injection.
Here is another successful job in Montreal.

Cold basement walls make your entire basement colder in the winter. The cold surface also creates condensation in the summer. Insulating your basement walls with the right material can help make your basement warmer and drier.
Those problems were occurring in our client’s basement in Montreal, and this is when she deceided to contact us!
Our team suggested the installation of 2 from our products: ThermalDry and Foamax.
Our thermalDry system is Stain resistant.Won't warp, bow or delaminate like wood products.
As for our Foamax, it really makes a big difference in the temperature of your walls, providing a comfortable basement and lowering heating costs.

Crawl space encapsulation in Montreal, Qc
Problem
Ms. Wilberg had a wet crawl space with water seepage. Moisture comes from the earthen floor, but also from the concrete foundation walls.
Solution
We installed a drainage membrane and a CleanSpace vapor barrier. The drainage membrane creates a drainage space below the Cleanspace to direct surface water to the customer's sump pump system. CleanSpace is a 20mm thick coating that acts as a vapor barrier. It insulates the floor of the house by blocking out moisture.
Water infiltration problems in a basement in Montreal, Qc
Ms. Lauzon had a problem with water infiltration in a room in her basement. Wall efflorescence means that there is water and moisture seeping into the walls and this causes a white powdery substance (mineral salts) to appear on the concrete walls. .
The solution
Install a sump pump system as well as a WaterGuard interior drain. First, a hole was dug to install our SuperSump sump pump system. It features a powerful ⅓ HP Zoeller cast iron sump pump capable of pumping 8,300 gallons of water per hour out of your basement to a height of 8 feet. Then a trench is dug all along the foundation walls to reach the foundation footing and the WaterGuard is laid in it. It collects water from the walls and the floor.
With this solution, Ms. Lauzon now has a permanently dry basement.
