Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: A basement waterproofed in Brownsburg-Chatham, Qc

This house in Brownsburg-Chatham had issues in its basement and spores where growing in the whole place affecting badly on the health of Mr. Jose and his family. So after finding us on the internet, he contacted us to examine his place and the first thing we needed to do it is checking up his basement since it’s the place where water leaking happens. Our technician confirmed this issue, and he suggested to waterproof and insulate the entire area in order to keep it dry and healthy. We then installed the WaterGuard Interior Drain in order to lead water to the drain, and then we have connected it to our companie’s SuperSump pump that will evacuate water. In addition our team has installed the CleanSpace membrane which blocks water vapor from the walls and redirects water to the WaterGuard indoor drain installed directly below.
