Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

Mr. Simon in Baie-D’Urfe knew that he needed to waterproof his basement for it was always getting wet, but he kept postponing this issue, until one day his friend, who was our client, told him about our company and informed him that a wet basement is bad for his family’s health, since water moisture gets into the whole house, allowing mold to grow, in addition, critters, water bugs, termites, and other insects thrive on water leakage.

After contacting our company to get an idea about our products, we have informed him that he can get a free inspection. So our specialist Mr. Michel scheduled a meeting with him and after the examination, he suggested a complete waterproofing system.

The system includes a WaterGuard  interior drain; the WaterGuard will capture water that infiltrates through the floor and foundation walls; a TripleSafe pump that has 3 pump systems and will adjust automatically to meet pumping requirements; a Discharge line to keep the water out and away from the basement.

The problem

Mrs. Desjarlaies had humidity problems in her house that came from her earthen crawl space that was not insulated. The relative humidity in the crawl space at the time of the inspection with our specialist was 83.2%. With such high humidity, mold and rot of organic materials develop and the comfort of the house will be affected.

The solution

We installed a new SmartSump sump system, a CleanSpace drainage membrane, and then a Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier.

With these solutions, the water in the ground will be removed and ejected outside, the humidity coming from the earth floor and the concrete block foundation walls will be blocked thanks to the CleanSpace and the humidity level can be controlled by the dehumidifier.

We encountered a significant challenge within a house in Pointe-Calumet, QC : Moisture and mold were proliferating in an unsealed crawl space. The 'before' photo illustrates conditions that were not only unsightly but posed serious health risks. Our effective solution involved the installation of CleanSpace and SilverGlo systems. The 'after' photo showcases a meticulously transformed space that now effectively protects against moisture infiltration and decay. We did not merely rectify the issue; we implemented a long-lasting solution that ensures the integrity of our client's home and provides them with peace of mind.

Mr. Guilbert was suffering from a problem of flooding in his basement, and the sump pump that was installed was not efficient and and allowed all the water to come in.

He therefore contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec in order to install a new high-performing and reliable sump pump system.

We therefore suggested the installation of our TripleSafe sump pump system. It is the most reliable and efficient pump thanks to its triple protection; 2 Zoellers pumps and 1 battery pump in case of power failure. Next, we laid an exterior discharge line to eject the water away from the foundation. And then we connected our IceGuard vent system to the exterior discharge line. It allows water to escape if the pipes freeze or become blocked for any reason.

With this basement waterproofing solution, Mr. Guilbert will have nothing to fear for next spring and even in all seasons!

Problem

Our client from Saint-Joseph-Du-Lac was experiencing issues with her sump pump. Indeed, the current pump had been functionning continuously for about two weeks, causing it to wear out and perform inadequately. The amount of infiltrated water exceeded its capacity. Consequently, water was escaping and damaging the basement floor. After filling out the form on our website, our specialist Laurent visited the site for a detailed inspection. It was necessary to take action to prevent structural damage that could affect the foundation of the house.

Solution

We installed our TripleSafe sump pump system, which will, without a doubt, ensure the safety of the basement. This system includes two excellent Zoeller pumps, with a third backup pump that operates on battery power. This allows the pump to continue working even in the event of an unexpected power outage. Additionally, the AlarmWatch system placed on the cover serves to provide advance warning, preventing any potential disasters.
