A basement finally dry in Saint-Évariste-de-Forsyth, Quebec!
Challenge
Our customer, owner of a house in Saint-Évariste-de-Forsyth, was struggling with a recurring problem of water infiltration in the basement. During heavy rains, water was accumulating at the bottom of the foundation walls, causing excess humidity, unpleasant odors and a growing risk of mold. The floor was showing signs of dampness, and the customer feared for the durability of her foundation, as well as for the indoor air quality of her home. There was no pump in place, and interior drainage was missing.
Solution
After a complete inspection of the basement and structure, our specialized team designed a solution tailored to the severity of the problem and the specifics of the house.
We installed a WaterGuard interior drain at the junction between the floor and foundation walls. This system effectively captures seepage from the walls or under the slab, then redirects it to a secure drainage point.
We also installed our TripleSafe sump pump, a three-pump solution offering continuous protection:
1-Main pump for normal situations
2-Secondary pump in case of overload or failure
3-Battery backup in case of power failure
This solution ensures that the basement is protected and kept dry, even in extreme situations (storms, power failures, heavy rain). With the installation of our WaterGuard system and TripleSafe pump, the homeowner now benefits from a totally dry and healthy basement, protected against future infiltration. Humidity levels have dropped considerably, eliminating odours and the risk of mould. She can now use her space with complete peace of mind, knowing that her foundations are well protected.
