Photo Album: Waterproofing a wet basement in Saint-André-Avellin, Qc
When we met Mr. Michel who lives in Saint-Andre-Avellin, he informed us that he was having problems in his basement since the day he moved.
So we inspected his place and advised him to waterproof his basement.
We have solved those problems by installing an interior drainage system since the exterior drainage system can do extensive damage to your lawn and cost you a lot of money, a SuperSump sump pump system to intercept all water seepage, and an IceGuard accessory to prevent freezing of pipes.
Used basement in Saint-André-Avellin
The owner of this basement wanted to use it properly, but could not do so due to the humidity and the constant infiltration of water in this basement.
Old sump pump
When the sump pump is open, all the bacteria and moisture will spread outside.
Team Inspection
During inspection, our team locates the best area to install our waterproofing products.
Installation of the inside drain
We have installed the WaterGuard interior drain in our client's basement so that it intercepts water from the walls and the floor.
WaterGuard installed and hidden
The drainage channel is hidden beneath a layer of concrete. Only the top edge of the wall flange is visible, so you'll hardly know it's there.
Sump Pump basket
The SuperSump allows us to connect the inner drain in order to channel the water.
SuperSump pump installed and connected to the WaterGuard
Once we install the WaterGuard , we connect it to the SuperSump pump. Our SuperSump system is very powerful, the most reliable and offers a high-volume pumping and has a built-in alarm alerts when water level rises too high.
Opening Ports
Those ports are very important since they allow us to check up the area continually and do maintenance cleanings.
IceGuard protection system installed
Pipe terminations can get covered with snow and ice in the winter. This can spell disaster for your basement if the sump pump water cannot exit through the pipe. IceGuard lets the outer out despite a pipe freeze.
