Basement Waterproofing Photo Album: A waterproofing job done in Montreal-Ouest, Qc

A wet basement can damage your home! Extreme water invasion can cause severe damage to your homes foundation, as well as, create high levels of moisture or humidity and humidity leads to mold. So if wet conditions persist in these areas, the air quality in the home will radically decrease. So this was the case of our client from Montreal-Ouest who called us, asking for our recommendations! After the inspection, we told Mr. Philipe that he needed to install a complete waterproofing system. The system will include an interior drainage system, our SuperSump pump system, an IceGuard and a Lawnscape accessory. Below you can find more details about our products and the installation process.

Wet basement filled with mold in Montreal-Ouest

Those black residues on the basement walls are due to mold and wet walls.

Efflorescence on the basement walls in Montreal-Ouest

Efflorescence will produce a white or sometimes grayish ash on the walls. Sometimes this ash sparkles. Efflorescence is caused by salt deposits left behind by evaporating water.

Water on the basement floors

Unexpected water in your basement can damage walls and floors, destroy carpeting, and lead pretty quickly to mold.

Installation of our interior drainage system

The Waterguard is designed to capture water seepage through walls and leaks along the wall/floor joint. It is installed on the wall-base joint on a bed of stones that slow down and filter the water.

Opening ports are also installed

Those ports will allow the WaterGuard system to be cleaned.

We connect the WaterGuard to our SuperSump pump system

An effective basement waterproofing system depends on a reliable, long-lasting sump pump. That's why we offer patented sump pump systems with innovative features designed to work together for top performance, year after year.

IceGuard accessory installed

Many sump pump discharge lines are susceptible to freezing during the cold winter months. Our IceGuard discharge line protection prevents this from happening. So if the pipe underground freezes in the winter, water can still be pumped out without the worry of backups into your basement!

The LawnScape™ Discharge Line Outlet

This outlet is a grated outlet system that attaches to the end of your sump pump's discharge line and is mainly installed to assist your gutters to ensure that they are not dumping water right next to your foundation.
