Photo Album: Protection against water infiltration in Saint-Étienne-de-Bolton, Qc
Mr. Gary had never had any water infiltration in his place, but when he began to completely renovate his basement, he realized that protecting it from possible infiltration would be a good idea.
He was actually planning on investing a lot of time and money to finish his basement so the last thing he wanted was to see that investment ruined. So he decided to contact us, when he saw that we are one of the best waterproofing experts since 2007.
The client wanted to opt for a French drain, but when our team told him about the drawbacks and what this installation would do to his land, he was a little disappointed. It was there that we explained to him that our WaterGuard drainage system was more efficient, had a lifetime warranty and that the work could be done inside the house. He was delighted!

The problems of water infiltration in basements are not new. Basements and crawl spaces are imperfect structures built on floors that work over time. The water then eventually seeps through the walls, floors, or in between.
WaterGuard installation in progress
An exterior drainage system can prove to be expensive and cause significant damage to your lawn. An interior drainage systeme eliminate these drawbacks and is very effective in keeping your basement dry.
SilverGlo insulation
A choice of high performance insulation. With its silver color, it insulates with R-11.
One of the rooms before the renovation
It was a good thing that some of the rooms were not renovated yet. The installation of the WaterGuard was easier and our team did not need to touch the completed work.

Indoor drainage systems cost about 50% less than outdoor systems, usually installs in two days or less, and do not require any excavation work in your yard.
This interior drain replaces exterior French drains
Some French drains have a large opening in the floor where dirt accumulates to block the ducts.
Others are buried under the basement floor, resting in the mud next to the concrete footing, and are easily clogged with silt and debris.
