Basement Waterproofing & Finishing in Saint-hyacinthe, QC

Our client in Saint-Hyacinthe sent us a request for a free inspection and estimate on our website. He explained that the foundation of his house was collapsing over the years and that it needed stabilization. We sent one of our experts to assess the situation. Once there, he noticed step pattern cracks in the foundation. After a thorough inspection, he found that the best option was to install eight PushPier support piles and a French drain to stabilize the house permanently. Our team excavated the necessary areas throughout the foundation and installed the drain and support pillars.

The customer thanked us for being able to permanently solve the problems he was experiencing and for having an extended warranty. 😄🏡

Our client had repeated water infiltration in the basement and was looking for a permanent solution. Not willing to make an exterior drain, he opted for our company’s interior drain system.

After setting an appointment with our specialist, he went to his home to explain our solutions and propose a tailor-made project. Following a free estimate, our client then decided to deal with Systèmes Sous-sol Québec.

We came up with a WaterGuard system that covers the perimeter of his basement. This drain system is internal and effectively collects water that seeps into the basement. The WaterGuard system also avoids digging all around the house and therefore destroying the landscape surrounding the house.

The drain empties into a patented sump basement system. It is a system with two pumps, one of which is battery operated. The backup system has enough energy to drain an average pool.

Thanks to these solutions, our client benefits from a dry basement at all times.

If you are like this customer who has water entering your basement and you do not necessarily know where it comes from, there are several possible sources. Water can come from wall cracks, cracks in the floor, around plumbing, through poorly sealed windows and doors, floor joists, foundation footings, or through porous building materials.

Our complete basement waterproofing system blocks water vapor, traps leaks, and redirects and pumps that water away from your home. We installed such a system at this Saint-Hyacinthe client. The CleanSpace membrane is an ultra-resistant vapor barrier that drastically lowers the moisture level by completely blocking water that leaks through cracks. The WaterGuard Drain is a network of ducts that is placed all around the floor at the base of the foundation walls and collects water that seeps from all sources to redirect it to a SuperSump sump pump that evacuates it far away.

Foundation walls, IceGuard and LawnScape water discharge line accessories are indispensable during icy winters and rainy summers, as they allow water to escape if the pipe freezes and prevents the outlet from becoming blocked by mud.

This basement is completely waterproofed and can be finished one for all without any fear that water infiltration will happen again.

Our client who had been in his house in Saint-Hyacinthe for several years started to suffer from a high level of humidity in his place which was affecting his and his family’s health.

After many research on the internet, he knew that the problem might be coming fromh is crawl space but he didn’t know which company is the best and will be able to solve his problems permanently.

Since one of his friends had the same problem, and was fixed for good, he has recommended him Systèmes Sous-sol Québec,

Furthermore, he has contacted us to have a free inspection of the area, and we sent our specialists who did a full and thorough inspection on the inside and outside of the home, and recommended to install an internal drainage system called the WaterGuard, on most of the basement walls and the installation of the CleanSpace encapsulation membrane, made of 7 polyethylene layers, to cut moisture and reduce mold; a Drainage Matting In order to stop the water vapor from penetrating up from the floor and a SaniDry Dehumidifier which is the most powerful and most cost effective Dehumidifier available .

Since our intervention, our client noticed a remarkable improvement and the disappearance of odors and cold floors and she felt more relaxed since the Crawl Space was fixed permanently
