Basement water infiltration in Montreal East, Qc

Basements are built below grade; this is why they tend to suffer from water seepage. You may notice moist basement walls from time to time, water puddles here and there, or worst-case scenario flooding during the rainy season.

Humid, damp, or downright wet basements are bad for the entire house’s health and can result in mold and mildew growth, rotted wood, and damage to stored items.

One of our client’s basement in Montreal East was undergoing major water infiltrations around the foundation and contacted us asking about our free inspection and quote.

We sent one of our specialists who recommended the installation of an interior drain system on the foundation footing as well as a vapor barrier membrane and a SuperSump sump pump system.

This crawl space in Montreal East was very wet and clearly had moisture and mold odors on the surface due to water infiltrations. We went to inspect this place and noticed the high level of humidity in it. Consequently, we installed a complete crawl space encapsulation and insulation system to insulate the house from the soil.

SilverGlo insulation panels are panels that preserve the warmth of foundation walls and reflect it inward.

The CleanSpace membrane blocks moisture and contains an antibacterial that prevents mold growth.

The SmartDrain collects water from the ground.

Finally, we installed the SaniDry Sedona, which is a very powerful dehumidifier that dries the crawl space air and that redirects it in the crawl space to dry materials. It collects water from the air and lowers the moisture content to an acceptable and recommended level (50-55%).

Job Stories From Montreal-Est, QC
Water seeping into a block wall in this basement in Montreal East, Qc

Mr. Mann has lived in his house since 2002. He once had up to 8 ”of water in his basement which completely destroyed his floor. He hadn't redone his basement since, because he knew the water seepage was going to happen again. Since then, he has always had high humidity and this greatly impacts his comfort in his home. He contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec in order to find a permanent solution to his problem of water infiltration and humidity to finish his basement.

 

In order to solve our client's problem, our experts first installed our WaterGuard interior drain system in their basement. A trench is dug at the bottom of the foundation walls and the WaterGuard is laid there. Water seeping through the block walls flows to the WaterGuard and the WaterGuard directs it directly to the sump pump system. Subsequently, they laid a drainage membrane directly on the block walls. It has the effect of directing the water which comes from the walls towards the WaterGuard. And to finish it off, they laid our CleanSpace coating over the drainage membrane. It cuts the moisture from water infiltration of the walls and gives a clear and bright appearance to the basement. It is made of different layers of materials, including polyethylene and then an antimicrobial, to prevent mold growth.

 

With this solution, Mr. Mann will be able to finish his basement and will no longer have a moisture problem.

Wet Crawl Space in Montreal-Est, QC

This client has been living in his East Montreal home for 15 years, but it was built in 1948. The uninsulated crawl space is very wet and there is a lot of moisture coming from this space and going upstairs.

The client never entered the crawl space and he did not know if there was any water infiltration, but he clearly had moisture and mold odors on the upper levels.

Previously, the client had had some of the beams that had been molded replaced by other metal beams. This indicated that the humidity level was very high. When organic building materials deteriorate in this way, the problem must be addressed at its source.

 

So we installed a complete crawl space encapsulation and insulation system:

SilverGlo insulation preserves the warmth of foundation walls and reflects it inward.

The CleanSpace membrane is a very resistant vapor barrier. It blocks moisture and contains an antibacterial that prevents mold growth.

The SmartDrain is a dry well that collects water from the ground.

And finally, the SaniDry Sedona is a very powerful dehumidifier that dries the air crawl space, and that resituates in space to dry materials. It collects water from the air and lowers the moisture content to an acceptable and recommended level (50%). The water is automatically evacuated away from the house. It is a very powerful system that does not require your work. It does the work for you to improve the air quality in the crawlspace, but also throughout the house.
