Wall foundation system in Trois-Riviers, Qc

Solution
Stabilize and reinforce foundation walls with our steel PowerBrace beams. They even allow the straightening of the walls over time.
Solidifying the foundation of a chalet in Austin, Qc
PROBLEM
Our client, Ms. Camille, had noticed that for a while, the exterior door to her basement had difficulty opening and closing. When a contractor came to do the work, he suggested installing screw piles to solve this problem.
SOLUTION
The entrepreneur was right; the problems were caused because the foundation of his chalet was not stable. Our team therefore installed 2 PushPier screw piles. This guarantees a solid foundation.
We also installed CarbonArmor, which was used to stabilize a foundation wall from the inside. With the ArmorLock system, a super-strong carbon fiber strap is fused to each ArmorLock strip and anchored to a heavy-duty steel bracket that’s lag-screwed to the rim joist.
Stone foundation walls stabilized in Georgeville, Qc
Problem

Installing our StableLock system in Danville, Quebec
In Danville, Quebec, a basement showing severe wall cracks and high moisture levels was completely transformed by our team of experts. A reinforced concrete wall next to the damaged section was poured to stabilize the structure, while the WaterGuard drainage system and CleanSpace vapor barrier were added to control moisture. To complete our StableLock system and address the bowing wall, five galvanized PowerBrace beams were installed to provide long-term support and correction.
Horizontal foundation crack repaired in Sherbrooke, Quebec
Foundation cracks are a big problem that many owners in Sherbrooke face. Reparations by injection, as you can see in the Before picture, is not always the best solution especially if the crack is horizontal. In this case, there is a good chance that water will penetrate back just like it happened with this client.
We consequently installed a vapor barrier to drain the water towards the interior drain and to have a permanent solution. The SilverGlo membrane as shown in the picture, has an R-value of 11 to isolate foundation walls all over Quebec.
