Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This house in Hampstead was suffering from foundations failing. When you notice cracks in the foundation, do not ignore it for those are signs that ground movement is happening.

This actually affects the stability of your home and it is important to fix this problem before it gets worse.

We have stabilized this house by installing 12 PushPiers recessed piles and a perimeter of SilverGlo insulation panels.

Our SilverGlo insulation panels are inorganic and contain graphite particles that reflect heat to protect the home.

PROBLEM

Mr Dany never really saw any issues with his foundation, until recently. He had been the homeowner for many years before he noticed that the foundation walls started to cave in.  He knew he wanted to act quick to solve the issues but had no idea what would be the best solution.

SOLUTION

The client didn't know where to start but he knew he needed a permanent fix. This is the reason he chose steel PushPiers, 6 to be exact. Those piers attach to the footing of the foundation to stabilize the house. Mr Dany was so pleased that the work was completed quickly and can now enjoy his home in Sainte-Brigide-d'Iberville, Qc.

Mr. Young has lived in his home for over 10 years. He already had a few cracks in the foundation of his house, but that didn't worry him. Over time, the cracks widened. Worried, Mr. Young decided to contact Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to find a permanent solution to his problem with foundation cracks.

The solution for our client was to install the CarbonArmor straps where there were cracks. This helps to strengthen and stabilize the foundation walls and prevent the cracks from growing.

With this solution, Mr. Young's foundation walls are permanently reinforced.

Ms. Chong had a big problem with cracks on one of the foundation walls. So she contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to find out the source of the problem and resolve it.

 The problem was the sagging of the foundation of her house caused by the movement of the ground.

In order to solve this problem, our experts laid 8 push peirs under the foundation pad. Their role is to stabilize the foundation permanently. These pillars are made of steel and are driven deep into the earth to bedrock or other stable layer. They can present an opportunity to pull the house up to its original position and often caulk cracks.

Ms. Berryman who lives in Brossard started to notice that cracks had been created in several places on the walls of the exterior foundation. In addition, she could also see cracks inside her house near the door frames and on the ceiling. She was starting to get worried about her house and wanted to have the foundation of her house repaired.So she decided to contact Systèmes Sous-sol Québec for a free estimate.

The solution for Ms. Berryman was to install hydraulic piles under the footing to straighten it. To do this, our experts excavated all along the foundation walls to reach the footing. And then they installed several hydraulic piles. This first makes it possible to straighten the foundation walls, possibly completely plug the foundation cracks and solidly stabilize the foundation so that it can no longer move.
