Foundation Repair & Basement Waterproofing a Home in Thetford Mines, Quebec
Mr. Mayrand, situated in Thetford Mines, Quebec, was stressed because he had water infiltration in his basement and when he removed the floor, he discovered a lot of mold. He decided then to go online and find a solution. Upon discovering our website, he filled out our request form. We quickly responded to his request and scheduled a free inspection at a time that was convenient for Mr. Mayrand. Our specialist Houssem Ben Salah drove to Thetford Mines at the scheduled time to meet Mr. Mayrand and complete the inspection. Upon noticing the gravity of the damage, Houssem decided the proper course of action would be to install 5 PowerBrace™ Foundation Wall Repair System to address the foundation issues, as well as a WaterGuard® Basement Drainage System combined with a CleanSpace® Basement Finishing Wall System, and a SuperSump® Premier Sump Pump System to address the water infiltration issues.
Our foremen Cedrick and Colin were tasked with this big job and headed to the site in Thetford Mines to complete the installation. They first dug trenches along the foundation walls in the basement and a pit for the sump pump. They then installed the WaterGuard® Basement Drainage System in the trenches, as well as the SuperSump® Premier Sump Pump System in its pit. The WaterGuard is designed to capture water seepage through walls and leaks along the wall/floor joint and directs it to the sump pump. They then installed the CleanSpace® Basement Finishing Wall System all over the basement walls. This system creates an effective moisture and vapor barrier. The wall covering forces all wall seepage and moisture to flow into your perimeter drain system. Finally, they installed the PowerBrace™ Foundation Wall Repair System. This patented foundation wall repair system is designed to stabilize failing basement walls and provide the potential to straighten walls over time. Our client can now rest easy without worries about his foundation collapsing or water infiltrating his home. Another job well done by Basement Systems Quebec, thanks to the whole team!
