Photo Album: A waterproofed basement in McMasterville, Qc
Water infiltration in the basement is always a problem, especially in finished basements.
We were able to overcome many obstacles in this installation made in McMasterville in order to offer the client the peace of mind of a dry basement all the time.
Water damaging the basement due to absence of a waterproofing system
As you can see here, the drywall was getting ruined.
Another picture showing damages due to water penetration
Some harm can be unseen, such as high level of humidity and air contamination
Efflorescence on the floor
This white powder is left due to water presence.
Basement used by our client as a storage area
Water penetration was annoying our client, and he was not able to organize this area as he desired.
Installation of the WaterGuard
Interior drainage systems can usually be installed in 2 days or less, and don't require you to dig up your yard.
WaterGuard installed
Our system is installed on the foundation footing out of the mud and dirt, and sits on top of stone bedding, adding another "clean" layer to prevent clogging.
Installing our SuperSump pump
At Systèmes Sous-sol Québec we have four different sump pump systems, each specially designed to take a unique water issue your home.
SuperSump pump installed
Our SuperSump pump is the king of the sump pumps with its high-volume pumping, a built-in alarm to warn you when water level rises too high, and its sturdy hermetic sump cover that keeps out insects, odors and radon gas.
LawnScape outlet
LawnScape is an accessory for water discharge line. It settles at the end of the hose and allows water to come out without the hose dragging over the grass. Its design prevents mud, rocks and animals from blocking the water outlet.
