Challenge

A homeowner in Saint-Hugues, QC, was dealing with significant water intrusion in their basement. After a recent flooding scare, they urgently needed an effective and long-lasting solution that could be installed quickly. The problem was traced to hydrostatic pressure forcing water through the basement floor and foundation.

Solution

The homeowner contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, where our Customer Care Specialist promptly arranged a home inspection. A System Design Specialist conducted a thorough assessment and recommended the installation of a SuperSump system — a high-performance sump pump known for its reliability and longevity. Our production team, led by a foreman and skilled installers, arrived on time and completed the work with precision. The SuperSump, equipped with a 1/3 HP Zoeller cast iron pump and a built-in maintenance alarm, provided powerful pumping capacity and early warning of potential issues. The installation caused minimal disruption, and the workspace was left spotless. With the system in place, the homeowner gained peace of mind, knowing their basement would stay dry for years to come.
