Waterproofing of a basement in REPENTIGNY, Qc
Problem
Mr Achachi had moisture problems in his basement. He could see in some places of his basement walls traces of water and this meant that there was water seeping through the foundation walls in his basement.
One of the causes was the presence of cracks in the foundation walls that allowed water and moisture to seep into the basement.
Solution
We first sealed these cracks with our FlexiSpan solution. Next, we installed a SuperSump sump pump system which includes a 1 / 2HP cast iron Zoeller pump. This way the soil water is drained outside away from the house and it can reduce the humidity in the basement. And then a WaterGuard foundation interior drain was laid on the foundation footing. This collects the water coming from the walls and which may be on the surface of the ground to direct it towards the SuperSump to evacuate it.
