Photo Album: Waterproofing a wet basement in Outremont, Qc
Here is another project executed in one of our client’s house in Outremont City.
His basement was very wet all the time, and this was bad for our client’s health and the whole house state as well.
Our company owns the best waterproofing products in the market, from which we installed the Waterguard interior drain to capture the water from the walls, and from the most common point of entry; the Supersump pump system that has a sturdy liner to accept water directly from the ground, as well as a larger inlet hole to allow your perimeter drainage system to empty into it.
Paint was peeled
Whenever your see a peeled paints, it is evidence that water is leaking.
Spider webs in this basement in Outremont
A wet basement makes a haven for insects of all sorts.
The wall has started to deteriorate
Leaking water will ruin the entire place and deteriorate everything that might come in contact including the the walls or the floors as well.
Mold and Mildew growth
Mold and mildew thrive in moist environments, spread easily, and live on various surfaces which make them very difficult to get rid of. If left unattended, however, the harmful microorganisms can quickly affect large areas of your property and may even result in health problems and structural damage.
The advantages of an interior drainage system
Accessibly to do the job, more affordable than an outside system, is installed in a day or two, and is easily serviceable year round.

It’s much recommended to install cast iron pumps since they’re quiet, cool well, and are long lasting.
