Before & After Photos

Many people do not pay attention to their basement, or even refuse to invest in fixing them; until problems starts to occur!

This basement needed our intervention, and our client who owns this place in l’Ile Bizard contacted us as soon as he felt he cannot control this situation anymore.

We sent our expert to examine the area, and he informed Mr. Michel that he needs to waterproof the place in order to make his house healthier.

Our products offered are the best in town, and we started by installing The WaterGuard interior drain to capture the water seeping from the walls and the floors of the area, and we connected it to the SuperSump pump.

This sump pump is designed to specifically handle the amount of water a basement gets during heavy rains.

Finally we installed the Iceguard accessory to prevent water from freezing.

This commercial building in Kahnawake had water and air coming in from a crack in the wall. To solve this issue affecting the daily business activities of this owner, we injected FlexiSpan and Polyurethane crack injection to fix the crack and installed a CleanSpace membrane to block humidity and water vapor. 

In Saint-Jean-De-Matha, a homeowner was facing two major problems in his basement: recurring water infiltration and a foundation wall that was bulging inward. To address these concerns, Systèmes Sous-Sol Québec implemented a solution combining interior drainage, moisture control, insulation, and structural reinforcement. The WaterGuard® drain was installed around the perimeter of the foundation to collect water and direct it to the SuperSump® sump pump system, which pumps it out. To better control ambient humidity and help maintain a drier environment, a SaniDry Sedona® dehumidifier was also added. SilverGlo® insulation panels complete the installation by helping to limit heat loss and improve basement insulation. Finally, the PowerBrace® system was installed to reinforce the curved foundation wall and help limit further movement. By combining these various technologies, our team was able to address the challenges of water management and foundation stability through a solution tailored to the home’s specific needs. This approach aims to reduce the risk of water infiltration, better control moisture, and provide increased long-term support for the foundation wall.

What are the characteristics of an efficient interior drainage system?

- It is designed not to clog and to be positioned on the top of the soil.

- It has a 3/8 inch built-in space between the floor and the wall, to drain infiltrations from the wall.

-It does not depend on a filter cloth.

- It has a large drain outlet for the pump

- Do not cause structural damage to the foundation.

Thus, this system is connected to an airtight sump pump whose cover and lid serve as drains that allow the water to be evacuated and prevent the vapors from disengaging and humidifying the air.

The pump is therefore protected and its efficiency is optimized. The alarm system also lets you know if the volume of water exceeds the minimum level that would start the pump. Thus, in the case of a problem, you will be notified before damage occurs and you will be protected by the battery pump system that will protect your basement in the event of a breakdown.

In the before photo, you'll see a dark, earthen crawl space in a house built in 1940s on precarious fieldstone, pointing to the struggle against moisture and frost. Fast forward, and the after shot captures how our CleanSpace, SaniDry Sedona, and SmartJack systems transformed this problematic crawl space into a clean, dry, and stable foundation. Notice the seamless encapsulation and the sturdy support – proof of our commitment to delivering enduring and effective solutions for homes in Saint-Zénon, QC.
