Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In Très-Saint-Rédempteur, a homeowner began to worry when cracks appeared in the foundation walls, moisture seeped in, and some walls began to lean inward. Little by little, the risk became real: loss of comfort, mold growth, and fear of more serious subsidence.

Faced with these problems, our team at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec stepped in with a reliable solution: our PowerBrace® system. These galvanized steel beams, measured and customized on site, were installed along the walls to stabilize them immediately. Securely attached to the floor and ceiling, they will even gradually straighten the walls over time, all without having to dig or do any invasive work.

Today, the house is protected, the basement is healthier, and the owner can finally enjoy peace of mind, knowing that their foundation is in good hands.

Our client noticed that the floor of his house was unstable and slightly tilted. It was actually due to the retaining wall that had started to show signs of subsidence.

In order to find a solution to the problem, he contacted Système Sous-sol Québec to obtain a free quote.

After a visit from a specialist, it was agreed to install a patented SmartJack support system. The goal was to support the joists of the house and get the floor back to its original level.

Our client now benefits from a house with solid foundations thanks to Système Sous-sol Québec.
