Systèmes Sous-sol Québec Before & After Photos

We have transformed this crawl space in Godmanchester, Qc so that it is no longer wet - We encapsulated it all with our CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane and waterproofed everything by installing a SmartSump sump pump system.

 At Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, we install only the best sump pump systems available anywhere in the province of Quebec. We have an answer to clogging sump pumps, power failures, torrential rainfall, and much more!

PROBLEM

Mr. Bruno's crawl space was uncovered and created humidity in the rest of the house. The client did not want this to affect his family's health in the long term.

 SOLUTION

 Systèmes Sous-sol Québec’s team suggested a solution that guaranteed a dry space all year round. A solution including 3 products; TerraBlock insulation, SmartDrain and CleanSpace encapsulation product.

Our TerraBlock insulation provides a puncture-resistant vapor barrier on all surfaces it covers - one that will not be damaged by water or support the growth of mold, rot, and mildew.

As for the SmartDrain, it is a floor drain installed at the lowest point of the crawl space to intercept water infiltration caused by plumbing leaks.

And finally the CleanSpace will prevent the growth of mold. In addition it is odorless and very safe to use.

Problem

Mrs. Quesnel suffered from water damage in her basement because her sump pump stopped working.

Solution

Replacing her sump pump system with our TripleSafe. The TripleSafe includes 3 pumps, one of which is battery operated in case of a power failure. It's our most efficient sump pump system and gives you the peace of mind. We connected our Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier to it to control the level of humidity in the basement.

Our client had a foundation problem. The hydrostatic pressure had bent the foundation of his walls in the basement.

After looking for solutions on the internet, she decided to contact Système Sous-ol. An appointment was set and a specialist went to do an assessment.

In order to fix the problem, PowerBraces were needed. It was necessary to support the foundation walls first and then straighten them.

Thanks to our company, our client solved her foundation problems and can now enjoy now a safe house.

PROBLEM

A house in Papineauville had a damp crawl space. There were water infiltrations coming from the walls, which caused mold growth. During our free inspection, our specialist Houssem took care of the visit. Descending into the crawl space, he was able to identify mold, causing an unpleasant odor. Serious structural damage that could even affect the foundation of the house could occur in case no action was taken.

SOLUTION

Encapsulation of the crawl space using the CleanSpace system. This involves covering the crawl space floor with a drainage membrane and a vapor barrier on top:

The drainage membrane has a cellular surface that helps transport infiltrated water towards the drainage or sump pump.

- The vapor barrier prevents the evaporation of infiltrated water, thereby eliminating excessive humidity. It also includes an antimicrobial additive that prevents mold growth.

- To ensure good thermal insulation of the crawl space walls, we installed SilverGlo wall insulation panels. In addition to resisting thermal conduction, SilverGlo panels have a radiant barrier that reflects heat inside the crawl space for energy savings.
