Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

To finish the basement without waterproofing it would have been a bad idea since the risk would have always been present and the water would have infiltrated again and ruined the place.

Those are the reasons why we recommend Mrs. Vanessa who lives in Anjou, to do waterproofing work in her new house that was having water seepage through the floor joists under the stairs, into a cold room and the nearby corridor

At the start, we installed the WaterGuard drain under the perimeter of the affected regions. This drain is specially designed to drain the water flowing from the walls, the wall-to-floor, and under-floor joints and redirects it to the pump.

And then we installed The TripleSafe sump pump which is the most efficient pump on the market with 3 existing pumps for more safety.

Finally, we completed this system by installing the IceGuard accessories and LawnScape. The first allows the water to drain even if the pipe freezes in winter and the second lets the water out of the foundation by hiding itself in the grass.

Following an inspection report that reported humidity and mold in our client's basement, he decided to contact several contractors. He found Systèmes Sous-sol Québec on the internet and decided to book a free estimate.

Our solution aims to capture water infiltration before it accumulates in the basement. To do this, we installed a perimeter of WaterGuard all around the basement. This drain is connected to our sump pump system with two pumps, one of which is battery operated.

Thanks to these solutions, our client benefits from a basement that is protected against humidity.

When a customer called us saying: I have water seeping into my basement near the stairs; we often know what it implies.

We have a product specifically designed for these situations that complements our indoor drain system.

The TrenchDrain is designed to prevent water from entering a home through doors and stairs. It is connected to the WaterGuard subfloor drain to automatically drain water through the SuperSump sump pump system.

Enter Systèmes Sous Sol Québec & our solution: a sleek, durable TripleSafe Sump Pump installation, captured in the 'after' photo. Notice the expert craftsmanship and the promise of a dry, worry-free future. We delivered not just an updated sump pump but peace of mind and a dry basement ready to face any storm.

Basements are built below grade; this is why they tend to suffer from water seepage. You may notice moist basement walls from time to time, water puddles here and there, or worst-case scenario flooding during the rainy season.

Humid, damp, or downright wet basements are bad for the entire house’s health and can result in mold and mildew growth, rotted wood, and damage to stored items.

One of our client’s basement in Montreal East was undergoing major water infiltrations around the foundation and contacted us asking about our free inspection and quote.

We sent one of our specialists who recommended the installation of an interior drain system on the foundation footing as well as a vapor barrier membrane and a SuperSump sump pump system.
